Excited about my mini-goal met! Down 11 lbs

Last night I weighed myself before bed and saw 219 flash on the scale, I figured this number was wrong and went to sleep, this morning the scale still says 219, it's true! My first mini-goal has already been met! For the first time in 2 1/2 years I am under 220 lbs. I have fought to lose from 237/240 down to 220 lbs so many times in those 2 years. Every time I'd get close (maybe 222 lbs) I'd bounce back up to 240. Here I sit at 219 and it feels like a dream. I have only been on Phen for one week. I feel like I fell down the rabbit hole with this pill. Weightloss suddenly feels possible. I finally feel myself saying "when I lose the weight" instead of "If".

I am going down roughly 1 lb a day right now. I know those numbers wont drop like that forever, but I am thoroughly enjoying it while they do. My second mini-goal is getting under 200 lbs. I haven't been under 200 lbs in about 4 years nine months (the age of my youngest daughter lol) Only 19 more lbs until that goal is met. I am very happy today!

Thanks! 11 lbs feels like a drop in the bucket, but seeing the scale tip under 220 has been wonderful. It gives me hope for the next 11 lbs. I was at close to 240 in January so overall I am closer to 20 lbs off total. I was starting to think weightloss was just hopeless, but I am doing it!
