Machiavelli is on a distinguished road
Default I'm almost a third of the way to my realistic goal

I know my sig says goal is 200, but that's my ultimate goal. 190 is a stretch goal and would probably require me to lose some muscle mass to get there (I used to work out a lot before I got big). Anyways, now that there's only 40 lbs to go before I hit my "success" goal it just doesn't seem like it's that far anymore. Heck, an extra 20 on top of that doesn't seem that far away.

I love this diet, I love the way I feel.

Way to go! You keep pushing and before to long you'll be 2/3 of the way there. What a great feeling to be able to look back and say "I don't have to lose that again".
