I'm not a snowman...how am I melting right now?

It is the holidays, right? Can someone tell me how I've lost 7 lbs. in a week? I'm only 6 lbs. from my goal, but I'm going to drop another 11lbs and get a slight unfill to stick and stay at 150. Yes, I'll still be technically overweight, but I'm about as small now as I think I want to be. My 14 year old and I are now wearing the same size - 8/9's. Funny thing is, I haven't worn this size since I was 8 or 9 years old, LOL

    Wow 7 lbs during the holiday? That's awesome and you look beautiful! I have 11 to go to hit my goal and am losing 1 lb a week or so. I'm almost to a normal BMI and feel amazing. Time too step it up so I hit goal sooner than later. You will be there super fast!

    Isn't it PATHETIC how a size 8/9 is overweight?? My surgeon said that those BMI charts are very unrealistic when it comes to the categorization. I'm sure you are an amazing size. Congrats!
