Excellent!!! I remember saying I'll never get above 200 and then well I'll never reach 300. Seeing that 300 on the scale is really what got me motivated this time. I plan on never seeing that number again. I hope you don't either.

It's like the weight is hanging on for dear life, the fat just doesn't want to give up...LOL

I know exactly what you mean. When I finally did hit 300 pounds I was just amazed with myself.

I just could not believe I had allowed myself to go that far.

Funny thing.

I took my bowling ball into the living room last night *it's a 15 pounder* and I told my family to take turns lifting it didn't tell them why.

They all exclaimed at how heavy it was. That's when I told them to consider the fact that I lost 21 pounds and how much better I was feeling. But also to consider how I still have almost 150 pounds to go until I get to my normal weight and that I was still carrying 10 of those bowling balls around with me.

Really puts things into perspective.

Good going, Vegasman! And--put me down on the under-300 list, too (finally!)

Congrats Vegas and everyone else who's got rid of the 300's or is heading that way.
Here's to all of us who like to pass each weight several times on the way down.
