They make clothes that tell me I'm a size 6.  Size 6 skinny jeans!!  What a hoot!   Gave me the motivation I needed to run this morning.  The scale didn't move today since last week.  I'm going to be ok with that since i really don't want to lose much more and I REALLY want to be building muscle.  I'm trying to up my calories and add in healthy carbs. 

I really think this is going to be the hard part.

I don't know much about exercise or building muscle but maintaining has been pretty easy so far. As soon as I hit 145 my nut said not to lose anymore so I go up and down between 145 and 147 (since December). I've added calories and taken on some good fats.

Now If I could just get exercising figured out ...things would be better! 

Good luck!!!!
