Ta da! I have lost 30 lbs!

Back at Christmas I weighed 152 lbs.  That was 50% more than I weighed on my wedding day (yah- I am a shorty). 

Today I weighed in at 122!  I still have a little way to go yet.  But I am so excited!  I never thought I would lose the extra weight.  I never thought I would feel this good ever again. 

I have lost 10 inches off my hips and 8 from my waist.  I have dropped 4 pants sizes.  I probably lost more than 10 inches off my stomach - but I could never make myself measure because my stomach had gotten so big.  I used to not be able to button the bottom button on my shirts.  These shirts are now too big!

I need to get some pictures from my mother in law.  She has been the only person who was allowed to take pictures of me for the past few years.  It is a mother inlaws God given right to take pictures you know!  So I dont have any before pictures (or afters come to think of it)

I look so different.  I seriously look 10 years younger and feel 20 years younger. 

I have learned so much from calorie count.  I really appreciate all of the encouragement and advice I have recieved over the past few months.  This site really made the difference for me.  Thanks guys! 

Congrats ^_^ thats fantastic!

CONGRATULATIONS and good luck on the rest of your journey!
