weighed myself this morning, im at 149.7!!! with pjs lol.

almost to my goal weight of 140-135. trying to loose it all by dec 2. there is a military ball and i want to look nice :tongue:

for comparison purposes, the blue plaid shirt i'm wearing in the pic (taken about sept 12 this year, when i was 159 or so) could NOT button up so that's why i wore it as a jacket over a white shirt :laugh:

now, it buttons, first time wearing it since. and not buttons to the point where you can see your bra, but buttons perfect. and i didnt loose weight in my boobs (thank goodness) since i am still breastfeeding, so that means the weight came off in other places like back, arms, stomach to make that shirt fit :) thanks for listening.

    Congrats!! Can I ask what you've been doing? Your starting weight and goal weights are right on with mine. I'm at 155 currently. I want to be at at least 140 by the end of the year, preferably 135.

    So, being that you've been so successful, would you mind sharing how you've gotten that success?

    well since several ppl asked, actually my "secret" is for the last several weeks i have started eating more than the 1200. id say, 1400-1500. one day i screwed up and ate too much, but turns out i actually lost weight, so i kept doing it ever since.
