Holiday clothes fit comfortably!

I live in the far north of Canada and we try to go on a warm vacation each year at spring break. Last year I let myself go. We ate too much and exercised too little. I didn't hate the way I looked but I was feeling flabby, jiggly and out of shape. I started MFP about 40 days ago and have managed to lose about 13 pounds. I decided to pull out my summer clothes for our upcoming holiday and try everything on. Yay, every piece of clothing fits again. I am so happy and proud of myself. Thanks so much for all the support MFP friends. Only 8.5 pounds to my original goal.... Maybe 5 more after that though.
