    Congratulations!! I'm looking forward to that day also. I was thinking today I should go buy a pair of size 8 Levi's and hang them on the door in my bedroom. I'd love to be a size 8. I think I went from kids clothes to a size 12... but too old to really remember that far back.

    yeh, it does take a while and it doesn't look like you have been at it that long. I couldn't see your profile since we aren't friends but just watch your calorie count. write it down everyday and be sure you are accurate with your numbers. My sister in law works for a hospital and she lost 75 lbs in the last 5 months by following her plan. Basically it is staying at 1200 caolories each day and eat 80 grams of protien each day. Protein is important because it helps burn fat!! Just stay at it and you will be fine. Just give yourself time!!

    Basil

    I was doing the math - here's where I am right now

    Weight Loss History:

    March 26th Start 268
    April 26th - 10 lbs 258
    May 26th - 14 lbs 244
    June 26th - 11 lbs 233.5
    July 8th (1.5 wks) - 1.7 231.8

    it looks like I may be on track to lose around 6 pounds this month, as an estimate. It fluctuates, this will probably be my lowest month so far. not sure why, but it's all relative. I lost big in the first 2 months, but not horribly fast. The first and second month were experimental for me to find out where I wanted to be. The third month I found my 'groove' LOL. overall, my average is about 10/month (depending on how this month pans out) so not unreasonable. I'm eating on average 1500-1900 per day, with a maintenance day thrown in 1-2 x a week. I think it's pretty healthy. I'm not eating REALLY low calories - and I'm really rather enjoying my journey. When you're heavier, as I am, it can come off faster than 2/week (and I'm not all that much higher than that).

    I can't even imagine. I have never been able to shop at any normal stores, even when I was in high school. I can't wait for that to happen, but it will be a long time from now.

    Congratulations! I can't wait until I'm out the plus size section in women's clothes. Ironically in unisex/men's clothes I'm down to a large (I started off a 2XL, sometimes an XL if they ran big) and down two pant sizes in the gym style pants. I probably could go down a size in my jeans as well.

    I'm so happy for you, I know how big of a deal that is and what a wonderful feeling it is. Go you!
