Starting weight was around 254-257. Size 20 pants and 2xl tops. Today I'm 181. My goal is 150. I'm wearing size 12 pants mostly (I have size 14 jeans and size 10 pants that fit too.)

    Great job! Your stats are almost exactly like mine (except I'm older) I'm at 179-180 after having lost 75 lbs. My goal weight (at some point) is 170 although I have to say I'm pretty happy where I am and wearing a size 12. I'm going to maintain over the winter and then perhaps try to get that last 10 lbs in the spring. But we'll see. In any case, great job. You look terrific - although you did before too.

    Thank you so much! I'm in a 12/14 and if nothing changed, I'd feel ok about this too. It's a whole lot better than size 20! I know plenty of people would feel terrible about weighing 180, but I'm SUPER proud of it. lol
