As of this morning, I have lost 50 pounds! It's hard to believe, except that my clothes don't fit anymore! :laugh:

I still have 28 pounds to go, but I have lost 11 inches each from my waist and hips! I'm really broke, too, so I'm taking donations for clothes! ha-ha! I'm hitting up my friends and family for clothes!

I've been doing this with MFP for 26 weeks today. That's an average loss of 1.9 lb/week! If I continue in the same fashion, I should hit my goal around the end of January.

I wanted to share this because I've had ups and downs. I've had plateus and hills. A hamburger or two, even cheese and bacon! But I don't eat like I used to!

Keep on keeping-on. The weight will come off!

Look out world - here I am!!!!

    Absolutely wonderful! You should be so pleased with yourself for shedding those fifty pounds. ELEVEN INCHES off a single measurement is so remarkable. What was the timeline for this accomplishemnt?
