I have to agree with this 100%!!!
Also, because you're a woman, keep in mind how IMPORTANT it is for your bones to continue with strength training for the rest of your life. As women, we lose 1 percent of our muscle per year, rising to 1 percent to 2 percent from the age of 50. By 70, a healthy person has 20 percent less muscle mass than they had at 36, (according to Science News.) You can protect yourself well into "advanced age" (notice I didn't say "old age" LOL!) with continued strength training.
Remember: it's not ALL about "losing weight" - it's also very much about being healthy!
BTW, you're doing a GREAT JOB so far!!! KEEP IT UP!!!!
