Great job! Sounds like you've formed a good plan with strong focus on hanging habits thus lifestyle which is key IMO. Stay the course and don't forget to celebrate reaching those 'baby step goals' by doing something for yourself. Also curb any disappointment by focusing on improvements in how things fit, what you can do, and how you feel instead of the number on the scale. Keep in mind that number is just one of MANY reference points and not the real indicator of progress you are making.
