660 days on MFP.....44 lbs lost....10 to go!

So today is my 660th day on MFP, logging every day...counting my calories, exercising 6 times a week (mostly - sometimes more sometimes less)...I have lost and kept off 44 pounds...but have yet to reach my elusive goal of 155 lbs. I have…

1 year consistently logging = 45 pounds gone forever!
So..I'm not at my goal weight just yet...but I have been taking the slow and steady approach to losing this weight that I have put on in the last 20 years.

36 pounds down and 9 months later, I have finally gotten out of the "obese" range in BMI!!!! I have been going slow and steady since January, and today I finally broke that magic barrier number that makes me "only" overweight.... I still have 19 pounds to go to reach my goal weight, but so glad to have finally made it on…

PB2 Thins = YUM!!
I just ordered these from Amazon.com last week, and oh my...they are tasty!! I have been using the PB2 peanut butter for a few months now - for sandwiches as well as in smoothies (also yummy!!). I found a 12 package of 100 calorie bags on Amazon.com and they really taste like "regular" peanut butter cookies! Very small…

Down from a size 18/20 to a size 8 in 6 months!!!!
So I'm not done yet...still have a ways to go actually, but this was a good weekend for shopping NSV's! I've posted before about lower sizes that I've been able to fit into, but this one was a shocker for me!
