First mini goal 250

I think you're wise to savour your current weight victoriagirl, we're often so anxious to see a new lower number that we bypass our mini goal numbers without truly appreciating them.  I started in May '07 at 350 lbs and got down to 268 by May '08 but am smaller in size / clothes now (Novmeber) then I was in May, even though I'm 15 lbs heavier!  I sometimes think it's better for our skin if we take our time.  I have family who have lost close to 200 lbs in a year and a half and are really struggling with loose skin whereas I don't find I'm having that problem; I think it may be because I gave my body time to catch up to the weight loss (although that wasn't my plan!!).  You're where I'd love to be victoriagirl and are truly an inspiration to many of us.  I appreciate everyone sharing their stories and updates.  Thanks for the welcome gracie, you're doing great!

Hi folks, after reading ALL the posts on here, I'd really like to join this group.  Momof2kd, I relate to you because I joined CC this last week and weighed in at 290 lb, your starting weight.  Needless to say, you're inspiring me!  Iknowmychicken and victoriagirl, I loved reading your updates.  You've both done so amazing and it was so encouraging to read your progress, your joys and your struggles.  I think I noticed you two more just because you have photos so I find it easier to identify when I can put a face to the story.  If it's okay, I'd like to join in the Wednesday weigh-in's.  I'm so impressed with this site and many of the people in these forums / groups.  I need some help staying on track and feel this with help with my accountability.

My 'stats': Age: 37    Female: 5'6      Location: East coast of Canada

SD: 11/10/08    SW: 290      Mini GW: 250        GW: 180 

Thanks to everyone for sharing their stories for people like me to read and see that 'it' can be done.

Cindy
