I started my weight loss journey on March 11th of 2013. I have lost a total of 40lbs! I have also been able to reach another goal of mine, which is getting my engagement and wedding band off. They have been stuck on my finger for a year! I really needed to get them off to fix the band. Anyways! I still have 41lbs I want to lose to reach my goal. Hoping to achieve this by the end of the year. ALSO I am 6lbs from onederland and could not be more thrilled to be coming back to the 100s after being in the 200s for 4 years.

great job on the 40 lbs lost!!!
Now the problem you might encounter one day: fingers being too small for the rings! haha... that's my problem now and my grandmother's wedding ring and my university grad ring HAVE to be on my middle finger or I'll lose them0 -
Wow; what did you do to loose 40 lbs in 3 months time ? I've just started less than a month, 3 weeks to be exact and I've only lost about 4 lbs, you are an inspiration !0

On the first day, I cut out ALL drinks other than water. I ate 1200 calories for the first 2 months, and worked out 5-7 days a week for at least an hour each day. I always break my diet (eek I know, but it works for me). Towards the end of the second month I became way to obsessed with my calorie intake that I decided for this next month not to count ANY (scary, right??). Well I assumed my weight loss would halt or that I would gain, but I still lost just at a slower rate. My goal is about 10lbs a month. This month I also started a BUSY summer semester in school, so I haven't made it to the gym in weeks. I took up running around my neighborhood, at least a mile 5 days a week, to compensate. I try to stay active like taking my son to the local greenway to walk or even parking in the back of the school parking lot for a little bit more of a walk. Really I think it takes consistency in eating and working out. There is no secret thing I am doing. Just working out when I can and making better decisions about food.
I meant to add my stats!
