Thanks!! This last 5lbs to get to onederland is going to kill me though! I was flying along and then hit a wall, these 1.6lb losses a week are for the birds!! At least by May 1st I should be there!!

I just read your post about your dresses, so happy for you!! I wore a pretty peach/black/white flowery dress yesterday for Easter and my husband loved it, he even said it looked so Spring-y (he's not like that, you know?). I felt really good and really pretty even though we just stayed home.

I saw too that you wrote about clicking on your tracking bar and can see the progress, how awesome is that?!?!? Is that a different site than 3FC? I loved it!

Can I ask you? And please ignore if this is too personal...I'm the same height as you so I compare myself to everyone even though you are much younger than me. Are your dresses a size 14? I'm DYING to be in a 14 by Memorial Day so I can hopefully wear a plaid dress I saw at LL Bean. It's a casual style that I hope I can pull off at the BBQ we go to. I'm not going to buy it yet, but it's a mini goal for me!

This is really exciting news. Congrats.

I hadn't seen the obese chart before and never thought it applied to me, but apparently I am also obese. I think those numbers are really harsh and unrealistic. I need to lose another pound so I can be "only" overweight. Thank goodness the number is close for me.

Congratulations!!!! I love all the folks who've gone before me to show it can be done!

I hope sometime in 2014 I too can be overweight!

I am a pretty solid 14 at this point. Of course there were a few 14s on Saturday that were too small, but isn't that always how it is? I have a pretty big belly because that is where I carried my weight so I look for a-line and empire waist dresses. At Old Navy I'm a 12! Yay vanity sizing!
