Hi,

I had a 3 lbs. whoosh this week and reached a great milestone. Today for the 1st time in over 12 years I am under 200 pounds. This is a very exciting day for me. I feel so alive and light.

So 90.2 pounds in eight months. I could have never done this on a low-fat-calorie diet or without the great support from my friends, co-workers and all the wonderful people here.

Thanks for reading,

Mike

Hi Sunny,

The link in my sig tells it all! I track all of my food on FitDay. You are welcome to peruse through the whole eight months of info. (It is missing two weeks of info from when I went on a cruise in October '03)

Fitday is just one of the tools I learned about here. The other is Diet Power. Both I had no idea existed until I came to this site.

Thank you all for your affirmations.

Cheers,

I remember when I first hit under 200, it is indeed a wonderful feeling.

Congrats on such a terrific job!
