NSV - I think
First let me say that DH has always been totally supportive. Yesterday morning as I was getting ready, DH came up behind me and gave me a hug and said "You don't think you're loosing too much do you?" He said when he cuddles against me he feels my hip bones. I laughed and said it's because everything falls to the side. He said ok and that he trusts my judgement. I still have at least 20, maybe 30 lbs. to go, but it made me feel good.

We are almost the same weight (I was 154.2 this morning), and I'm 5'5" tall... the "tiny" comments have started, and "don't get too skinny" is starting too.
I'm wanting to lose between 10-20 more... wonder what they'll say then! LOL

I'm 10 pounds under my goal of 135- I met surgeons goal a long time ago. I'm still losing though very slow. i would like to see 118 maybe 115 at least once in my life since apparently I went from 6 pounds at birth to MO in a heartbeat and missed out on being 'normal' weight. not taking this for granted and milking it for all it is worth
I am 5'4 and currently weigh 143. When I weighed 140 that amount last year, I looked very skinny and close to 70 years old. Well.....it does resettle and of course I gained to 146. But I am back to 143 and now I feel there is room to go down another 10 pounds. I have to keep balancing the looking too old with the the lower weight. But why not go down as far as you can. What will you hurt, you might look like crap, but you will have the bragging rights. Then when you regain the 10-20 pounds rebound, you will be perfect.
