I am so excited I am finally below 200 lbs. my clothes are looser! I am so exstatic! I feel great and I am having no problem sticking to my diet either I love the food and the cravings are finally almost completely gone.

 I would like to know how others are doing how much weight has been lost and congradulations to those who feel great and look great.

 Thanks,

Sara

me too! i weigh 198 now go us!

Way to go Sara!  I crossed that 200 line recently, too (for the absolute last time!).  I started at 203 and am down to 192.  At this pace, I should be able to hit my goal of 160 by Christmas.  I was able to wear a skirt yesterday that I couldn't zip before, so I know exactly how you feel!  Keep up the good work!

Congratulations!! You must be very proud. I can't wait to hit 199 if all goes well I should be hitting 199 around the first of September. Then I will only be 9 pounds away from my reward which is a Nintendo Wii. I put a big "Must be 190 pounds or less to open" sign on the Nintendo Wii box to help keep me motivated.

YAYYYYYYYY  Great job to all of you who got under the 200!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I know what a big step that was and is!! Soon I too hope to be under 200. It is one of my short term goals... LOL I have 5 short short term goals and then I will add more as I cross them off my list (one has already been crossed off, the getting under 210 goal, scale was stuck just above it for months and months). I can almost see all of your smiles as you got on the scale that day!  Yay....

Congrats on your weight loss. I have 10 more lbs to loose before I hit that mark. I have been over 200 lbs for alomost 4 years now. I was at about 180 when I got pregnant and when I had my daughter I weighed 230 lost about 20lbs after that and gained it all back. I hope in the real near future I can say that I too am under 200lbs.

Good luck and keep on weight losing

Hello!  I'm at 197...and so very happy.  I had hovered in the 190's, then crossed over in the 200's a few months ago and was quite devistated...so was so happy to cross that line back down last week!  

Congrats to all!!

Congratulations to all of you!  I started on July 9th and have lost 15 pounds.  I cannot wait until I get below 200!  Talking about a celebration!  I have been over 200 for about 18 years.  There will be a party in my house.  You all will hear me rejoicing all over the USA! 

I've got a ways to go but for the first time I know it will happen!  I started at 257 and am now at 242!  Hoping to hit 199 by Christmas!

Keep up the great work!

Connie in VA:  15 pounds gone - 70 to  go!

oh how i love the WII, it helps you keep in shape if you play the WII sports game , its glad your setting  a goal for your self. its good to set small goals with prizes at the end!

Hi there. I am also excited about the possibility (reality) of eventualy being under 200 pounds. I started alli 32 days ago and have lost  18 pounds. At first I was wondering if this was working since I have not had any treatment effects. I'm just believing that all is going so well that te's haven't been a problem. I have been weighing and measuring everything I put into my mouth since that first day. I didn't mention to anyone except my great hubby that I was taking alli. I do want to keep that to myself. Maybe the old habit of failure had something to do with that decision. Anyway, my 2 grown sons and their wives were talking how Mom's eating at parties and familiy gatherings has been noticably changed. Since there seemed worried about me I did tell them I was oon a reduced eating plan with my doctors approval. They were so glad and have been a terrific help. 18 pounds gone and 50 to go.

 i'm 6feet 410 lbs and my goal is 240lbs i just staterd the program sunday and will start taking the pills wednesday. my short term goal is 390lbs. alot of people close to me know i am dieting so that will help me out alot with my urges and my family being behind me. i actually have a very active job ( i load aircraft) and i am going to start walking in the park every morning. this would be the first time i have ever tried dieting so i feel if i go hard from here on out in 2 1/2 years i shall reach my weight goals. my doctor says if i stick to my diet of 1800 calories and 17 grams of fat per meal i will lose weight faster than i think.

 hope to be under 400 in the next month  :-)

Congratulations!!  And how very encouraging.  Today is the first day of my alli life, and I find that the message board (as well as the alli website) has already proven to be a great motivation for me.  My SW is 216 and I am hoping to join in your excitement of reaching the "under 200 lb" goal soon, regardless of how soon it comes.  Throughout my "diet adventures", I've learned that slow and gradual is the way to loose weight.

As a newbie, I look forward to reading the posts; sharing and enjoying the life experiences of my new alli friends!  

Thanks . . . Muriel 

WOW! WTG!

I love hearing good things on here.

Blessings
