Talking Down 12.6!! (pictures)

Holy Crud!!! I knew I was going to lose the weight, but I didn't realize it was going to be so fast!!! And unless I plateau for 7 weeks... it looks like I'm going to be fitting back into my Irish Dance Costume in time for St. Patrick's Day! (that pic will come at 10%...)

I feel like I'm losing weight like a guy.... lol -- I started all of this on 12/31/07-- Is that too fast to have lost 12.6? I'm seeing other people who are losing 10 in 2 weeks... *eyebrow raise*

Anyways-- Let me know what you all think! I see a difference in the mirror--not so much in these pictures... But hey- my tank tops are finally staying on my belt line instead of popping up over my bellybutton!!

Thanks, Everyone, for all of your support!!! I KNOW I would have given up without all of your help!!!

I'm doing Weight Watchers (the old plan--I went from the 24-29 point range to the 22-27 point range this week). And I teach Irish Dance as well as have practice in an Irish Dance Show Company 2 times a week.

Then on my "days off" from teaching and dancing, I do aerobics (Richard Simmons tapes.. I know... But I'm not ashamed!! It works for me!) And I have one more day off where I try not to be a bump on a log... as much as I love sitting around and watching tv

It's pretty easy for me, though, because everything but the aerobics is my Job-- so I don't feel like I have to psyche myself up to exercise! (Except on my two days off... lol)

Thanks! lol yeah.. I'm a "pear". I'm VERY envious of all these beautiful ladies that can lose weight and go to single digits-- But I don't see it happening! I think I was an 8 in elementary school.... But I don't mind

Nothing wrong with a nice high hip-to-waist ratio! I think that shape looks great on women. Of course, it CAN make it a bit hard to shop... I checked my bust, waist, and hip measurements on a sizing chart lately, and they were M, S, and L(bordering on XL) respectively. It's like my body belongs to three different people!

lol No kidding! I have the same problem.... If I EVER find a dress that fits, I have to take in the bust and waist a couple inches!
But yes, I love my shape-- and so does my boyfriend So I've got no complaints about a few alterations for clothing here and there.
