75 Down, 75 To Go!

I'm 51 years old, 5'8" tall and I started in July of 2013 at 300 pounds.
Today I got down to 225 pounds and I bought size 18 pants an an XL shirt thinking they would never fit, but they did and they weren't even tight. When I started I wore size 26 pants and XXXL shirts.
The last time I wore size 18 was when I was 29. The last time I wore size 16 I was in high school. I am so excited to move down to the next size!
My goal is 150 but I really have no idea what weight will be best for me because I haven't been there since I was a child. I'll figure that out when I get closer.
Eating less, moving more and using MFP for motivation and accounability!
