I know this may seem like a lot of weight to most people but to me it represents a number that I haven't even been close to since 1988 when I had my 2nd son. My 1st main goal was to get to the weight I always put on my fishing license and today I did just that. Down 66 lbs today to 199 lbs in 5 months & 16 days. Weight loss doesn't make one happy but hitting a goal does for today! My second goal is to hit 180lbs, then possibly end around 165 which would be crazy to me at 100 lbs total weight loss. Glad I made the choice to just jump in and get this done, best 50 year birthday present I could have given to myself.
