~50lbs down, ~50lbs to go

Just wanted to remind myself how far I've came actually over recent months, because sometimes I get down on myself that I'm not there yet, but it will happen, and I need to remind myself I've done well already.
On 2nd Oct 16, I weighed 225lbs, BMI of 38.4 and UK clothes size 22+
Now I weigh 171lbs, BMI of 29.1 and UK clothes size 16
But more than all that, I feel great. I can do the everyday things like walking to the bus stop that used to exhaust me before. I can wear a nice outfit, put my makeup on and feel good when I look in the mirror. I never thought I would get here, 50lbs seemed a lot to tackle and seemed so far away, nevermind the 100lbs I'm aiming to lose. Now I can picture it, and I can believe and know I will do it. I can't wait to get to where I need to be, but I'm enjoying my progress so far.
