  1. Continuing to lose fat, but not much movement on the scale. In spite of that, just a doughnut of fat around my belly button and a two-inch wide ring around my hips. It's really fun to watch the way the fat leaves my body -- so different in shape than when I was packing it on and looked so blubbery. I actually was able to pull down my size 14 pants without even unbuttoning them first. All right, admittedly, I had worn them for a couple of days, but still!

      You're on your way!

  3. Finally dropped below 190! It has taken forever, but as usual, my dress size keeps getting smaller in spite of it all. Am tossing out more saggy clothes and starting to wear tight-fitting things. Skin is tightening up on my upper arms and stomach, so happy days.

      Thanks and xxx to you both! Just jammed on a size 12 and am elated... there goes the last pair of stubbornly skinny pants! I still can't believe my weight to size ratio.

      Good luck on the job! Stay positive, keep your bottle of water right next to you, and keep smiling that pretty smile!

  5. Today's my two-month sleeve anniversary! Yay! From size 20W to 14, and I'm feeling so much better. Back and knees and feet don't hurt, old clothes are getting tossed, closet is nice and clean... and pretty soon I'll run out of my "skinny" clothes and go shopping for the new me. So exciting!

      I'm not a religious person, but I'd have to say "Amen!"
