    Great job!
    I'd like to offer a little unsolicited advice.....
    Don't focus on losing 5-10 more instead just go for the strength training and toning. Your size is good and I think you'll find once things tone up you'll be right where you want.

    Enjoy your new body! :)

    Thanks so much for all the kind words! It's a great thing to wake up to!

    For those curious:

    I lost most of my weight in the first 8 months, with the last 10-15 pounds coming a bit more slowly since 135 was always my standard weight.

    I didn't exercise during that time, I actually just ate in the style of keto (healthy fats, very low carb are the main ideas). It worked miracles for me and I feel better than ever. I don't do strict ketosis (carbs<30g a day) anymore, and haven't for about three or four months, but I tend to avoid carbs for the most part anyway (averaging about 50-100g a day) since I never feel as full for as long when I eat them and I get really tired after if I don't put them to immediate use. I do workout now though, so my pre-workout snack is when I allow myself the largest portion of my carbs.

    For anyone interested in Keto, Reddit has the best community I've found for all your questions, sample food plans, carb lists, everthing. http://www.reddit.com/r/keto Be sure to check on the sidebar on the right if you are unfamiliar with navigating Reddit.

    thank you again for all the congrats!
