(Not quite) Half of Me w/pics

Well, my tagline is "Half of me by 43" and while I had hoped to be done by my 43rd birthday (today) and I didn't quite make it. I still have 35 lbs to go; but, I am VERY happy with what I have acheived to date! And I am certain that I still will officially acheive the "half" while I am still 43. It will still count, right? :-)
Actually, I am finally losing again after a LONG plateau (almost 4 weeks). Actually, it has been a combination of a stall + an adjustment to a new digital scale that is more accurate than my old analog one. What is nice about the new scale is that it does also measure body fat, visceral fat and resting metabolism! Despite not being able to claim too many fewer pounds lately, I have seen an improvment in both body fat and visceral fat. Plus my "skinny" jeans are starting to getting loose...so I know I am still going in the right direction.
Today, I am 41% of my former self and at some point this year, I'll be able to say "half of me"!
Here is a link to a recent post about my progress so far and my goals for the future:
