    My parents are coming for Thanksgiving. They don't know I've lost 55 pounds since I saw them last...

    Oh my gosh! How exciting! I would never be able to keep something like that quiet for so long. I go 2 weeks without seeing my mom and my mouth is running like crazy about my diet and the gym lol congrats

    Going on a 10-day university trek In October with our twin 18 y/olds and my husband. Will definitely be a challenge to continue losing weight -- and not gain any back -- with eating in restaurants and living out of a suitcase.
