Hit my (original) goal, THANK YOU!!!!!!
 
I am not a big fan of self-congratulatory posts, but here is another one:

THANK YOU to everyone who participates on this site, and to those responsible for creating it.

A little over 11 months ago I started this WOE. I set a goal to reach 200 lbs. by my birthday. Today is my birthday, and today I weigh 200 lbs., a weight at which I am very comfortable. I feel great! A few months ago, I adjusted my ultimate goal to 180 lbs. by the end of the year. But frankly, the goal number is not important. I am living LC as a way of life; I look good and I feel good.

I would not have had this success without this site. The technical knowledge and the moral support offered by the participants have gotten me through some tough periods. To all you strangers out there, thank you; my accomplishment is yours.
