This is a report from a very stunned, but very happy, happy lady! Holy cow! I knew I would see a bit of movement from the scale, but I did not plan to see the results I did. I had to reweigh myself 4 times just to make sure I wasn't standing crooked or something! As my ticker shows, I am down to 178.4! I have really accelerated the weight loss this last week, and the way I think I have done it is by cutting off my eating at 8 PM. This sounds so easy...believe me, it is NOT! My husband gets home from work Tue and Wed at about 9:45 and he always has a snack. It is so hard not to join him. Last night it was popcorn...so hard. But I did it. And it has paid off. I have also worked out at the YMCA twice, walked around the zoo and went swimming twice with the kids. That helps, I am sure.
Anyway, I felt stuck in the 180's for so long, I was beginning to lose hope. It feels awesome to break that barrier.

YEA YEA YEA!!!! What a great accomplishment. I am going to try the 8pm trick and see how it goes. I too love a late night snack. Love the picture of your little guy. Virtual big hug!!!!
Woo hoo! Congrats! I am so happy you are seeing such wonderful results, your changes have really paid off!
Julie, Julie, lovely Julie. I'm so, so happy for you!
I know exactly what you're feeling. When I broke into the 180's, it seemed too good to be true. After being in the 200's for so long. Isn't it amazing how just a few pounds can all of the difference psychologically?
You are fairly glowing, my friend.
I love you!
