In the first picture, I had already lost 20 pounds. Now, I have around 20 left to lose!

Great job Lucy !!! You look great ...was there ever a time that you hit a plateau ? I have lost 40 and now I am stuck at 198...scale hasn't budged in a month ...just wondering if you had a time that it happened and how you got thru it ...what changes you made.

Thanks all!

Satine, in terms of a plateau, I never hit a huge one, but I did find that varying the number of calories I was eating from day to day sometimes helped, and especially sometimes increasing my calorie intake.

teacher1, I used WeightWatchers. For the past few months, I have been logging my food in both WW and in MyFitnessPal, so I get the point count from WW and also a calorie count. I like MyFitnessPal because it breaks down what I'm eating into fat, carbs, etc., but I find it easier to think in terms of how many points I have left in a day. I also like MyFitnessPal's integration with my FitBit.

I should probably note that I had breast reduction surgery when I was around 170 pounds (so after the first picture, but before the second and third pics). Best thing I ever did!
