          Of all the pounds I lost, I was most proud and excited about the ones that put me into the overweight category and out of the obese category! Congratulations! You are doing so many good things with this WOE!

                  You go girl! Congratulations. You and I are the same height so I'm very familiar with the magical number of 185. After I got back into the 100s my next goal was to hit 185 so I was no longer obese.

                  It must be a great feeling! I can't wait (8 more pounds).

                    Great progress!!

                    I remember the way I felt when I achieved 'overweight' - such a good feeling which many other (thin) people just can't understand
                    Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?
                    Take a look at the thread from the latest Veggie Challenge to see how others manage it!
