45 Days In -- I'm on my way!

First time poster, so apologies if the image doesn't work...
After 3 kids and 2 rounds of Nutrisystem, I decided to finally get serious about losing the extra weight I've been carrying. I was tired all the time, grumpy all the time, snoring like a water buffalo, and growing out of my FitBit band. Enough!
I "officially" started MFP 45 days ago, and have lost 13 lbs since then!
The first 7 lbs fell off in the first week. Forget retaining water... I was retaining a watermelon! The rest of the weight has steadily ticked off at just over 1 lb a week, and I could not be happier. I feel better, my snoring is better (more like a "congested chipmunk" per my husband), and I've had to move down one notch on my FitBit Band.
I still have about 10 lbs to go, but it feels totally do-able. I've also started Stronglifts 5x5, and feel stronger already.
FULL SPEED AHEAD!

You had a beautiful body also in the starting picture, so don't ever get discouraged if it takes a while to lose the last 10 pounds (it usually does), because you look already really good, take your time and keep going.0
