This is a very special day. I am 249 - below 250 - closer to 200 than 300 - it feels so great to have come so far. This is such a milestone for me. :) Would you believe that I have lost over 37 pounds and I am still in the same size of jeans? Granted they were super tight when I started and now they are getting really baggy and depending on the brand some are falling off. I need to go shopping and see if I can fit into a 22 now. I feel like I am really getting into the groove of my WOE now as well. It just feels normal to eat this way and I don't feel deprived except every now and then. I do still have weak moments but they are less and less. Made a 93 & a 96 on my economics quizzes yesterday. I have about a 92 average in Macroeconomics & a 83 in Biology. I am going to really study for my next biology quiz & test and try to get that average up.
Oh & if I haven't been commenting on journals, posts, etc. it is not because I am abandoning my fs buddies. I have been swamped at work and studying during my lunch hour but I will make time today. :)

Congrats. Don't buy anything expensive though because you won't fit in it soon enough.

Great job on the weight lost. I was in 24 at starting out, i had some 22 pants though that got really baggy and i figured hey i can get a 20 now, and i was also at 40 lbs lost, to my suprise i got into 18 and some 16, i was totally shocked, and the biggest reward i could ever have. I also agree on going with cheaper clothes because now the cute outfit i bought in 18 is getting baggy. Hope u have the same success. Keep up the good work.

Don't worry guys, I always buy cheap clothes! LOL! I am a bargain shopper. If I'm wearing it it probably came from Garage Sales, Wal-Mart, Cato, or JC Penny. I want to go to Ross soon for a shopping spree. I went last December and bought a ton of clothes for super cheap. I think my jeans were all $12.99 and under and they are cute! I love that place. Thanks for the kudos on my school work - I have been working really hard. I feel like I am neglecting my family and work. I received an e-mail earlier from the accounting teacher letting us know that the class average for the first exam was 81. I made an 87.5. I guess that makes me "Smarter than the average bear huh Boo Boo?"

Thanks - I had it took this weekend so I could put a new pic up. I wanted to do a full body shot so you could see the loss but I will wait till I am dressed a little cuter. I just had an old T-shirt & Capri's on that day.
