    Ha! 194 this am, lost another so woohoo!!!! I'd love to be 154 just so I can be 'normal' however I'll be happy at 175. Hell, I'm fairly content now, but I know I can do a little better . We may not be perfect but we're so much better off now than 9 months ago!!!!!

    because the strands are so long. I was so sick of hair EVERYWHERE I chopped it into a A-Line Bob. I know its not gonna slow the process down but it ain't gonna be as much hair. Plus ponytail and weak hair roots make things even worse.
    New body.. new hair.. and a whole new tude to go with it. LOL

    Not totally stalled but losing SLOW like 2 pounds a month, maybe, on a good month, for the last 4 months or so. Like you, I'll take it and be happy. I'd really another 20 pounds off, wouldn't be at a normal BMI but I think I could stay at 175 and be happy with the overall out come. Still, extremely glad I made this choice!!!
    We had an argument at work today. I swore up and down that another girl and I had the same sized butt, everyone in the joint kept arguing that no, I'm smaller. I just knew I was right. In the end I'm in a very loose size 14 pants, she's comfortable in a 16. My butt IS smaller but I just really have no grasp on it yet.

    This may be TMI, but I was in the shower and noticed when I washed my "girly parts", not only did I not have to stretch down and around my big belly, but I was standing straight up and was able to reach the whole way back! Holy crap! Can't wait to show my fiancé this new skill! haha
