30 pounds. It's something, right?

So I recently hit 30 pounds lost (unofficially 33, but we'll see what the number is on my weigh-in day tomorrow.) I know 30 pounds isn't huge, but I'm still pretty proud as I tried to lose weight for a while but (perhaps it was the meds I was on that I stopped a bit ago) the scale didn't budge for months.
I don't see a visible difference, but here are a couple photos of me around my higher weight and me recently. (Now lets see if I can figure out how to post images.)

Higher weight (around 191)

Recently (around 159lbs sorry for lack of decent photos)

    WHAT?! 30# isn't MUCH? That's my 3 year old. Try carrying her around for a month! That's awesome!

    Thanks y'all. I don't mean to seem unhappy about the weight loss, I am happy about it. I guess I'm just feeling like a Debbie Downer today. But thanks for the kind words. :flowerforyou:
