I walk at my childrens baseball practices which before I use to just sit on my butt..my clothes are falling off we and it makes me feel amazing.. I have to type all these cause I am soo hard on myself with having 200lbs more to go I feel like I am not doing enough..

Write ALL of your moments down. I remember when you were saying you were having trouble walking around doing just every day errands - you had to sit in Walmart when you and hubby went out - so walking 2 miles is FANTASTIC. Keep up the GREAT work. That is an amazing amount of weight in such a short amount of time!
Instead of complaining that the rosebush has thorns, be happy that the thorn bush has roses. 
Jenn, this is fantastic! Just imagine all the "wows" you will have through this summer.
When I get a little discouraged, I think of where I was a year ago...and suddenly the change and the progress become crystal clear.
Congratulations on the 2 miles! There is an article in OH magazine this month about the amazing power of daily 2 mile walks in promoting fat loss and muscle development. Good stuff - you are on the right track!

Thank you all for your sweet comments and support.. reading them makes me realize how awesome I am doing and I should give myself more credit.. I just spent 7hrs out shopping today and yes I am sore and tired now but did not have to sit down in one store and take a break( except to try on shoes *LOL)
and guess what I put on a size 30/32 top and 32 pants today .. its amazing I was a 6x 40w in Jan .. i love my life....

Jenn,
I hope you're taking pictures monthly and taking your measurements every month, too... it will really help not only in making it "feel real" (trust me, you'll reach a point where your mind hasn't caught up with your body) but also in helping you over the tough times when you reach a stall. When the scale isn't moving, but the measurements are changing and the pictures show it, you get to see a whole different perspective.
You're doing really, really well at this point and it sounds like you're doing all the right things, especially with the exercise. Good for you!!! Won't be long until you're in a size 20.... then even smaller!
