I am proudly wearing a pair of pants today that are a size smaller than I have been wearing. :bigsmile:

I hit a total of 46 pounds lost as of this morning (started in January 2012 after giving birth to my youngest child). Six pounds of it has been since joining MFP at the beginning of the month.

I am particularly happy about today's victory because these are one of my favorite pairs of pants! Mind you, I will gladly say good-bye to them when I hit the next size smaller, though! lol

(Don't mind the wrinkles on the pants - I have a desk job, so I've been sitting all morning lol)

    Good job! It's tough to lose the baby weight - been there, done that! :)

    Congratulations, it is a good feeling isn't it?

    I'm in a similar boat, started Feb 1st, and down close to 60 now. If enough of us lose like this, we can hopefully inspire others that are on the fence to get healthy too.

    I'm still wearing my size 44 pants, and i had to make a new hole on my belt. It's a great motivational tool, although I look a bit foolish :)

    Thanks y'all!

    It does feel good to be getting back into shape and losing the weight. I have four kids to keep up with - I can't afford to be overweight/lethargic or they'll mow me down in 5 seconds flat! lol

    You look great! I'm so glad you are enjoying using MFP. I have tried to get 4 people to use it and no one ever listens. They sign up but then don't use it. You are the first to believe and it is already paying off! AWESOME!!! :) haha!

    I still have quite a way to go, so I don't know that I'm going to make anyone jealous just yet... but maybe I can inspire them! :D
