Reaching One-derland (Pics) 61 lbs.

I realized tonight that I am finally no longer "the fat girl" in the pictures. I can't be singled out of a photo anymore with that distinction. To feel like an average person means more than pictures could say!
I started this journey in July 2011; the before pic is actually from February 2011, so I don't know the exact starting weight. In July I started off at 260lbs. (I'm the large one on the left.)
This past weekend my girlfriends and I were visiting again, and we were practicing some of our gaming moves:
I was around 199 lbs. and realized that instead of saying "the fat one" I can say "the middle one".
(Incidentally, the gal on the right in both photos was inspired by my story and has already lost 20 lbs. herself.)
This journey has been a blessing to me in so many ways, most of which take the form of my friends here, including my mom, her best friend, my aunt, and those I've met along the way.

Sure, Riz! We always need casters when you've got that many tanks!Congrats, you look great! How tall are you?
I'm 5' 9.75"; I've been told I carry the weight well, but all the same I'm hoping to smooth out some of the remaining pooches through exercise and continued weight loss.What game is it?
The three of us participate in an online MMORPG, but we don't really need excuses to pose with Nerf weaponry! ^_^Awesome, you look great!
