7 month update
Hey Melissa,
You already look like a different person in your before and current pics. I know you must feel great also. I'm only down 78, but I'm feeling fabulous. I weigh 167, or maybe more after the holiday goodies. I really only want to lose about 25-30 more pounds.
The highlight of my day was in Express when I asked the lady to help me find some pants cut fuller through the hips and thighs in a size 12 and she said, "For who..you? There is no way you are a 12." To my surprise she was absolutely correct. Their pants must run a good bit larger because I could wear the 10's except the waist was HUGE on me. I have to get them large enough for my thighs and just deal with the big waist. I'm just thrilled to have my Marilyn figure back as my husband calls it.
Keep up the great work Melissa. I'm sure you'll make it to goal and complete this wonderful journey.

Thanks for your reply. You look beautiful. I am looking forward to seeing 167lbs. Congrats on your awesome shopping experience. Even if I lose 50 more lbs. that's on the high end of a normal BMI for my height but I know I'll never look like I did at 20 years old. Blessings to you for continued success.
Melissa
