I have been losing one pound a week for a long time now and it's been rather annoying since I'm only 4.5 months out.  However.......that scale does not matter because
i went to Kohls today to buy pants for work.  I went in the store wearing a 14, hoping to buy size 12's and I ended up buying size 10!!!!!!    I bought three pair of pants in a 10!  WHOOO HOO! 

I was SHOCKED!  I am still SHOCKED!!!!!    Yahoo!


Start Weight: 256
Today: 171
Down: 85
Still want to lose: 31

BMI 30.4

WOW!!!  (And you can say and spell it backwards--WOW!!)

Now isn't this a better way of noticing weight loss than being tied to the scale??!!

WTG!!
