Goal Weight Met - I can hardly believe it!

I joined in April on a whim - I'd just gotten an iPhone and downloaded the free app. It's made such a difference. I wasn't happy with the weight that had crept up on me over the previous 5 or six years - about 20 lbs worth. I chose to lose those 20 lbs. This morning when I weighed in I was just below my goal. I've reset my goals to just lose a half pound per week now. If I'm able to lose another 5 lbs I'll take that, but frankly, I'm happy with my weight now. I've had to replace a good portion of my wardrobe, and it's great buying size 4 or six pants instead of 10s. I realized that most of what I was wearing was designed to hide my weight gain, but it didn't really do the trick. I hadn't tucked anything in for ages. I've been buying belts now, since I'm tucking in again. I've recommended this site to so many people since it's made such a difference for me!
