S/C/G: 330/284.0/185

Height: 5'5"
Default 248, 82 pounds down! (With pictures!)
So my first real mini goal was to be 249 pounds, closer to 200 than 300!

This morning I was 248.5 pounds, it's been a rough couple weeks so I was pretty surprised!

Most of the time I don't really feel like I look that different until someone makes a comment or I put on clothing I haven't worn in a while. But right around the 250 mark I actually really started noticing a difference so yay! Finally! This is also the lightest I've been since I was around 15 or so. (I'm 25 now.)

Figured I'd post some before and.... during pictures.
I'm wearing the same dress in all of them, a dress I bought for my college graduation in 2010. It's a 22W.



My graduation party, May 2010. Not sure how much I weighed here, somewhere between 305 and 330 though. (I hated the scale, 330 is my highest known weight but that was in November 2011!)



Late March of this year, I was ~283



Today, at 248.5.
