Ok so my official weigh-in isn't until tomorrow but I did step on the scale this morning and to my delight it read 225! I could not have done this without the support of my wonderful husband, who has also lost over 25lbs! Picture this...Christmas 2009. I HATE this picture and my puffy face. You can even tell where my wrist is. My heaviest weight, probably right at 250 lbs., because you know how the holidays are.

And last night at my youngest brothers high school graduation. 225lbs.

We aren't finished yet. But I was amazed because I still sometimes see myself how I look in that first picture.

    That is awesome! I started around 250 also and have lost 25 so far, even if you still have more to go it is great to reach a milestone and see a real change!
