Default Hello Onederland!!

i woke up this morning and for the first time since high school i am in onderland!! i am so excited and overwhelmed and proud!
i still have a ways to go... but to get to this point its all downhill from here!
i have officially lost 65 pounds since the 4th of july. only 35 more to go before this coming 4th of july.
i have struggled many times on atkins and never stuck with it longer than 3 months or so and never lost below 220.... hopefully i will be back in a few months when i reach my 100 lbs lost goal!!

That's huge!!! I remember when it happened to me (in August). It was such a good feeling. I hadn't been there since high school either so I know how great you feel.

I'm so proud of you Amanda!!!

I remember how I felt, and still feel about it! It's a wonderful feeling!

You have done a remarkable job... and you will continue on until you find the perfect weight just for you! And now that you know how to succeed, you will keep that perfect size forever!

Hugs, kisses and all that stuff! You're doing great!!!
