My Biggest Milestone So Far... 200 Pounds Down!

[NovaLuna 710]

So, the entire month of April had been terrible for me. I've been dealing with a really bad osteoarthritis flare since April 5th so I only lost 1 pound the entire month due to inflammation issues and have been in constant pain since then. So, in the wee hours of this morning when I stepped on the scale I, honestly, wasn't expecting it to tell me I'd lost a pound because my weight keeps fluctuating between 190-193 and had done that the entire month of April. So I was shocked to see 189.2 on the scale! I stepped off the scale and then stepped back on it and it popped back up. I moved the scale and stepped back on it and, again, it said 189.2 for the third time. I didn't believe it at first lol (I think moved the scale like 5 times and checked it 6 or 7). But it's official! I can finally say that I've lost 200 pounds! That's a HUGE milestone for me! I have less than 10 pounds to go to get to my goal weight! And that just honestly blows my mind! I've been so miserable the last month due to the stupid flare, but seeing 189 on my scale put a huge smile on my face! It made my day! I just wanted to share my milestone...

That's so amazing! Conga-Rats! You should do something to celebrate!

Congrats! We started at approximately the same weight, but I don't believe I'll ever lose that much just due to my height and frame size/type. Losing more than half your weight is amazing!

Wow! That is awesome. I think losing 100 pounds is incredible, and you've lost double that. You've worked really hard to accomplish that, so you should be proud of yourself. I hope you can find a nice way to reward yourself for an amazing accomplishment.
