25lbs by 4th of july ... anyone with me!!!!

ok so im looking to lose the last of this weight before swim suit season is in full action!!!! ( i have this hot pink polka dot bikini i want to wear) I really have lost weight fairly easily since last fall but as i get closer to goal it is becoming harder. I would love to have some folks to keep eachother accountable and to be able to discuss any issues we might be having. I was thinking friday weigh ins as i like to eat on the weekends :P. A bit about me. Ive been working on weight loss pretty much all of my life. I have had 4 children with the last two 11 months apart and this has really done a number on my body. I have never been skinny but i was never over 200lbs. I now know that im done having children and am excited to have made a lifestyle change that makes me feel better as well as look better. for me the weight loss is only one aspect of it. Im stronger, faster, have more energy and feel good about myself. And all of these things are just as important. I can play tag with my kids and it feels great!!! But I will admit that itty bitty polka dot bikini is calling my name. ok so heres my stats.

5'6"

sw:217

cw:164

gw:139.5

In 17 days I have lost 8lbs.... I think I might beat that 25lbs by July 4th!!
