Congrats. I made it into one-derland not too long ago. Feels good huh?

Great work! I don't know why, but 199 just seems so very much smaller than 200! It's a magical milestone and really gives one hope for the rest of the trip. Congratulations, you have come a long way.
Re: Never thought i'd actually get to say this...ONEDERLAND
thanks everyone!
its funny how 199 does feel so much lower than 200. i havent run around with 'I HIT 199!" stamped on my forehead, but all of a sudden as soon as i hit 199 i started getting compliments out the wazoo, from everyone, strangers even. I think my face has thinned out or something. I went to the doctor last wednesday because i injured my back, and while he was examining me he commented that i have a long slender neck. then the x ray tech said that its so much easier to x ray people who have long slender necks about an hour later. weiiiird.
so far from what i remember of my old stats i've lost like 6 inches in my hips, and 5 or 6 inches in my waist. my chest has finally shrunk from a dd to a d. i'm in desperate need of bras that fit because they're all too big ( for once). I've gone from a stretchy size 19 to a comfy un-stretchy size 16. those horrible back fat rolls are practically nonexistent. my bf keeps touching my sides and telling me how much i've thinned out. i keep injuring myself where my hip and collar bones are coming through.
i'm holding steady at 199 though. since my back injury i've been laid up on muscle relaxers and steroids. i get the results of my x ray tomorrow morning, then i get to find out how soon till i can start working (and working out) again. wish me luck!

The injury is a tough break and the meds likely disguise weight loss (water retention). Don't let that discourage you, though, 'cause you may see a nice whooshie drop once you get those out of your system. You're doing great!
