Weighed in yesterday and found another 1.2 pounds gone! I am now .6 away from the 190s. Here is a quick update on my progress...
There was a time when I would have been ashamed to tell you how much I weighed, but I don't care any more. So, here's the scoop:
I started late February at 238 pounds -- part of it was baby weight and part of it was I don't care what I put into my mouth weight :) I was squeezing into size 16s with a few 18s in my closest, but I refused to go buy a new wardrobe in yet another larger size! I was still wearing some of my maternity clothes because sadly they were some of the only ones that fit me.
The last 5 months have been a lot of hard work, a lot of changes and a lot of accomplishments!!!
Today, I am 200.6 pounds (-37.4) and a comfortable size 12!!!!!!! I was able to go shopping at New York and Company this past weekend for the first time in like 3 years. I have also lost over 5 BMI points and 3-4 inches on my waist.
My goal -- that I established back at the end of May -- was to lose 20 additional pounds by September 28, which is when we head out for a week long cruise to the Caribbean :) I am currently 10.6 pounds away from that goal and 30.6 pounds from my ultimately goal of 170 pounds (I am almost 5'10)
Over half way there -- now comes the hard part of increasing exercise..again..so my weight continues to drop. :)

Good for you! You are doing so great. Sounds like you will have very little trouble making your "cruise weight!"
