I crossed the 300 pound threshhold!

For anyone watching and reading, I made my first milestone. I crossed the 300 pound threshhold. Now I don't expect too many folks to really get excited but considering I was 325 when I started the program way back in June and I was starting to lose weight just to hope to get started with P90, this is all important to me.
I have not been under 300 in over 5 years. When I get to 275, I will not have been that since 2001-2002.
These are important to me. They mean I will be able to get rid of some of the meds I must be on just to keep the stress from overloading my heart. Every pound I lose means I am that much closer to being taken off the meds. It means one less day of being in chronic ache because of the strain on my joints. It means another year I can hang around and do things and I can do more things.
I saw what P90 and P90X did for people who were way heavier than I. They are my inspirations. They are my beacons in the night. When the time comes, I'll be a beacon too. And I will be the living, breathing truth that it is possible to turn things around for the better.
So here is to crossing 300 pounds and on my way down to where I am supposed to be.
Huzzah! Huzzah! Huzzah!!!
