Start January 2nd, 2011
Weight: 197 lbs
Pant Size: 14 (getting tight!)/16
Shirt Size: L/XL
March 7th, 2011 (First Pic/Measurements)

Weight: 184 lbs
Waist: 37 inches
Hips: 45 inches
Thigh: 27 inches
Now July 5th, 2011

Weight: 166 lbs (-31 lbs)
Waist: 33.5 inches (-3.5 inches)
Hips: 39.5 inches (-5.5 inches)
Thigh: 22.5 inches (-4.5 inches)
Pant Size: 10
Shirt Size: Medium
In the last seven months, I have lost 31 pounds, 13.5 inches, and 2 or 3 pants sizes! That is 15.74% of my starting weight and 59.62% of my goal achieved. I'm also able to run for 12 minutes now, when I wasn't even thinking about running at the beginning. My closest is looking rather empty, since I had been around a size 14/16 for two years and I've never been smaller than a size 12 before, but I am looking forward to fitting into a size 8 by September!

You are doing soooo great! Sounds very similar to my journey so far....Seven months, 29 lbs lost. I just went on a small shopping spree because I was running out of clothes as well. Keep up the EXCELLENT work. It is so rewarding to see your hard work paying off in pictures like these.0
