Congrats!!!!!!!!!!

congratulations on the loss. I myself have went from 215 lbs to 167 as of this morning and am down to a size 10/11 depending on who makes them. Isn't it great to put on a pair of jeans and see them getting way too big and not from stretching. Well...just keep up the good work. I know I only have about 17 lbs to go at my new adjusted goal. Originally I wanted to get down to a 160, but now I feel 150 would be better and it will match the weight on my license.

Thank God they never made us here in Ontario put our weight on our license..hard enough with all the hair color changes.....hehehe

Wenzday Thu, Sep-25-03 13:21

hmmm I think I put 220 in my license...lol not there yet.

congrats!!! :) I am doing good too! I went from a size 28 to now a 22...not too bad for 5 weeks!

For the first time ever, the weight on my driver's license is not a big fat lie! In fact, it's a gross overstatement! HA! I said I was 180 -- at the time I was 225!!

I thought this was a naughty thread - DARN lololol....

CONGRATULATIONS !

beachmum Thu, Sep-25-03 15:56

That sounds terrific--and congratulations!

OMG, I'm not the only one who put a very optimistic weight down (hate to use the word LIED) for her driver's license? ROTFLOL

One time I had a hissy fit at a grocer store when signing up for a frequent shopper card. There was actually a spot for your weight! Absolutely ridiculous. Needless to say, I refused to fill it in, but they still issued the card.

Had the same type of experience the other day. I just could not believe how small of a size I fit into. Best thing is... I'm still getting smaller! YEAH! This is awesome! Congrats to you and to me, and to all of us HUGE LOOSERS! YEAH! We did it!!!!

NYorker Thu, Sep-25-03 17:00

Hah - I put 180 even though I was 214. In my own defense, I didn't own a scale so had no idea.

But it's funny. I had to get a new ID card the other day, and though the picture is typically awful, I can't stop staring at it next to my driver's license photo - my face has changed so much in four months!
