    Forgot to mention, did you notice how much smaller your neck is, look how your necklace hangs lower. Wow, I have a large neck, and it doesn't seem to go down. You look amazing, your personal style says alot about your personality. I bet you have a terrific humor. I hope you and your wife find a long, happy, healthy thin live together. Welcome to the USA!

    Thanks again, all :).

    Yes, most definitely. I am all about organization to an almost obsessive level, be it professionally or at home. Being able to track my progress over all levels, not just basic weightloss, helped a bunch. Having all my workouts/weight sets laid out the same way helped a lot, too - I knew what I had to do before I even got to the gym each session, which allowed me to prepare mentally and never allowed me to skimp if I was having a bad day. Gotta stay committed, even if you don't feel like it!

    Thanks. Yep, neck was one of the measurements I was tracking, I lost 2 inches around between then and now, which is a lot considering it was only 16 inches to start with - that's a 12.5% reduction!

    Well done!

    I have got down to a similar weight as well recently (not on as low calories as yourself though, but I did it slower)
    As I am a similar weight I was just wondering what amount of calories will you be moving up to now?

    Thanks, and well done again! :)

    Good question! Today was my first day of maintaining. MFP has set me to 2200 to lose 0 lbs a week. Today I did 350 of walking, so that put me to 2500, and I ate 1700 :|. I have no idea how well I'll maintain, but as I said in the first post I am moving to the Land of Eating Cows All The Time soon, so hopefully I'll figure it out there!

    It's interesting how non-americans view americans. "The land of eating cows all the time?" I've never heard us described that way before.
