Now im down 26lbs!

The number on the scale goes down and the photos look different but most of the time I feel and think there is no difference. When I step on a non digital scale, I automatically start at my highest weight and work my way down without even thinking. It's weird! Anyway, I'm 5'2 and started MFP in June. I was a size 22 and wearing 2XL shirts for the longest time. I've worked my toosh off and now I am currently a size 12 (Thanks to kickboxing and MFP!) I'm still far away from goal but I'm finally happy that I've lost more than 5lbs!

(hope you can see the picture!) :flowerforyou: feel free to add me! My first time ever posting.

    You look AWESOME! Inspiration to me because we're the same height and must have been around the same weight when we both started...I'm 8 lbs down, can't wait to hit 26! Like you, I never lose more than like 5-7 lbs when I've tried in the past. What a great feeling this must be for you, good job!!!
