Halfway to goal/75 lb lost!
This weekend I reached 75 lb lost! Since I'm not totally sure what my end goal will be and I'm now more than halfway to a healthy BMI I'm going to count it. Close enough, right? ;) ..

I just happened to be scratching my neck today and I noticed it felt...harder than usual? I realized that I could feel my collar bones!
