    That's a great improvement!! Congratulations. Sometimes the non-scale numbers are more important than what the scale tells you.

    How wonderful for you! It shows us all that its about more than the scale and looking cute in our clothes (though that's nice too!). But being healthy is so much more important! GOOD FOR YOU!
