Awww, thanks you guys!

Cleo - you can have my hair! I'd rather have the straight stuff. Of course, the straight haired folks always want the curly stuff. Heh, isn't that always the way?

loser4life - It is the same shirt! I try to take pictures each month in the same clothes to get a better idea of the difference from month to month. I haven't been able to wear the same jeans (cause the originals are just too damn big that they fall right down), but the shirt is still kicking around!

And yep, I'm in OWL - on the legumes rung. I did Induction for 5 weeks, and then moved on. I'm hoping to get through OWL over the course of the next 10 - 15lbs, and then I'll move into pre-maintenance for the last 10!

Who knew just 25 little pounds could make such a difference? Great job and keep up the good work.

LOL! When you're a shorty (I'm only 5'2"), even 5lbs makes a difference!

you look so good! I can't get over how much of a waist you have now! We have both been doing this for 4 months but your results are fantastic! Keep it up....you'll be at goal in no time!

Thanks! I'm into month 6 now, and still plugging away as committed as before. Alas, my weight loss has stopped at about that weight for 7 weeks now - likely its a 'set point' for me as this was a weight I was at for years previously. When I first started on this journey, I had hoped to make goal by the new year (for a total of 50lbs lost). That probably won't happen now, since I'm so stuck, but I'm ok with that! I've come so far, and I'm doing so well, that being successful is enough for me. Goal will come, someday. But I really am just enjoying the journey!

Aww, thank you! You guys are giving me perma-smile.

I work out 4 days a week. But I'm that person who gets incredibly bored doing the same exercise over and over again, so I switch it up. So on any given day, I may do one of the following:

- bike ride
- walk
- do an exercise video (WATP, The Firm)
- hop on the treadmill
- swim
- pilates

Though every day I throw some amount of strength training into the mix. I think its pretty important, not just to losing weight (muscle burns more calories!), but to getting firm. And I don't know about you, but I'd rather be firm and skinny than flabby and skinny!
