I lost close to 30 lbs between May and August.
I've been frustrated with my plateau because I've only lost about 12 lbs since August. I was looking for pictures I untagged of myself to find a "before" the entire 40ish lbs I've lost, but I stumbled upon this picture, and I had to try the dress on for comparison. I feel good about those 12 lbs now.

    What a big difference! I think sometimes we get discouraged about slow progress, but it's still progress! You look simply fabulous, keep up the good work!

    that 12 pounds look like 30 pounds to me. You must be doing weight lifting or something.

    Thanks :) I just started doing heavy lifting in the last 2 weeks (NROL4W) as a response to what I've been perceiving as an 8 month plateau, but prior I was mostly doing cardio and some reasonably high rep, mid-light weight lifting.
