So, I have lost my first 20lbs. Now I started to think about what sounds better measuring my progress in lbs or percentage lost.

21lbs=20%

Not that I really need more encouragement since I am SO EXCITED about my 21lbs, but to think I have conquered my first 20% sounds amazing to me. Either way I am doing the happy dance today. :bigsmile:
