for those who are on their second time around... (or third, or fourth)

i just started at nearly 25 pounds over where i started my very first go at MFP. back then (i just scrolled to the bottom of my profile to check) it took me over 2 months to lose the same amount of weight (about 12 pounds) that i just lost in 4 weeks. granted i just started at a considerably higher weight (back then, 188; now, 213).
my explanation is that it's just going so much faster because i actually know what i'm doing this time, i'm not having to figure it out along the way. i'm hoping i can keep up the increased pace since last time it took me over 7 months to lose 30 pounds (and losing slowly will not always keep it off, lol).
anyone have any experience with this/general stuff they want to tell me about the second go around? i'm trying to get down to 160 for my wedding in july, current weight 200 lbs.
