    Shockingly amazing!

    I honestly can't tell you how much wonder you've done, not only for yourself but for everyone now reading this post. You're amazing and a true inspiration. I'm 5'5" and started at 211lbs. My goal is 130. So we're from very similar backgrounds regarding weight loss. To see this and to see how QUICKLY you accomplished this... Is unbelievably astounding. I'm definitely bookmarking this for future reference. THANK YOU so much for posting and a HUGE CONGRATULATIONS! I know exactly what you mean about the vanity because TRUTHFULLY, that's my biggest goal too. ;)

    My only question is, other than walking/taking care of your little one, I have to ask... Did you do ANY other exercises? Or was it mostly diet mixed in with your already active activity level (infants are 24/7 jobs, yupyup).

    Have you tried swaddling for overnight sleep?

    Great story! The part about people not making eye contact with you or smiling back at you before you lost weight made me sad.

    Mostly diet. I swam everyday over the summer and that certainly helped but dieting was the biggest part of the equation. I started around 2k calories and just dropped it be 100 every few weeks. I currently live around 1500 but for the last 10lbs I had to keep it around 1k to see results. I was able to adjust my calories up without a gain so it seems to work. He is a bit big for a swaddle now, he started kicking the swaddle off at around 5 months.

    Really amazing story/transformation! Congratulations and I wish I had been there when you walked in and showed off your new body to your family. What a great feeling that must have been!

    As for your baby....have you read the Richard Ferber book on Solving your child's sleep problems? It is soooo worth getting. I was doing it all wrong with my first one and at 8 months, he still wasn't sleeping through the night. After reading Ferber's book (or really just a chapter or two), I had him sleeping through the night after a week. Yes, I had to let him cry a little bit but after the first 3 nights, there was barely a wimper. I think the first night, it took 45 minutes of crying (and you don't just leave them in there screaming or anything), the second night, it took like 15 minutes and the third, only like 5 minutes. Then he was sleeping through. It was like a miracle.

    Good luck and congratulations again!
