Been steadily loosing weight over the year (nothing agressive) and this morning I'm finally under 200lbs.

I started the year off at 226 so it's not massive weight loss so far but I'm close to my initial target of 196 by the end of the year.

It's been a bit of a struggle to get here, quick drops early on and then lots of small drops every week but it's starting to pay off. I feel fitter and look better than I can ever remember.

My weight normally fluctuates through the week so my next challenge is to keep it under 200 while I break through my 196 target and have to reset my goals.

Thanks BT, you've inspired me.

Congratulations.  That is a huge accomplishment.  Working towards the same goal myself, but am quite a bit farther from it at this point.  Keep up the good work.

What do you mean 26 pounds in 1 year is not massive weight loss?

I think you will find the slower it comes off, the better the chance it will stay off. Congrats, and stick with it.

Isn't it a great to have the number on the scale start with a "1"?
Congrats and Good Luck on the rest!

Congrats!

When I broke through the 200lb barrier, I was quite perplexed at the arrangment of numbers on the scale-I thought I had broke it somehow

Congrats!  I know the feeling of breaking that 200 barrier.  3 times!
Don't slack now, this is the hardest part.

Congrats! I managed to go from 215 down to 180, which is where I am currently by working out a little but more so just eating a lot healthier and much smaller portions. I am hoping that starting my tri training will shed the last 10 lbs of fat.

Good Luck!
