Talking 40lbs gone!!! - updated with before pic

Wow, I met my first weight loss goal ever in my LIFE! I have to say, when I stepped off the scale I was almost in tears (of happiness of course). I still have a ways to go, but I feel so proud and even more confident I can reach my goal. I can now wear XL/L shirts. I can fit in pants I haven't worn since my junior year in college. I've lost a cup size. I am starting to see a hint of collarbone.

People are really starting to notice - especially those in the business. I'm finally starting to notice in my clothes big time. I put on my jeans that I wore all the time (that started to get really tight in me) before I started losing weight and it now sags off of my body.

Attached is a face photograph. I don't have an image on my ipad to show before and after 40lbs, so I'll have to wait until I'm on my main computer.

Congrats on that BIG loss! You are doing great. Just think, in a few days you will be in One-derland...what an accomplishment. Keep up the good work. I want to add that you have a very pretty face and a great complexion.
