Default Officially have 15 more pounds to lose!

Woot! I'm so thrilled! Every pound I lose now shows dramatically! I can really pick out the areas I've lost and see the results..! Not much longer now..
I was worried about dropping sizes and if my goal was too high but now I see how much each pound affects my size... 15 pounds is plenty to go down a couple sizes I think. Just wanted to share! I'm beaming..! I've never been under 147/148 and it's amazing what 2/3 pounds can do to you!

haha yes I'm so excited, Thanks for all the comments!
I actually just started Callanetics this week.. just finished my second session this week and I've been pushing the cardio and I'm just being diligent about my diet plan, no cheats!
Good luck to everyone and Sh3l5 I agree! I can't wait to see you all in the goal section

Starrynight your so right about how good that makes you feel and look. I have 20 lbs left to lose and I'm just now beginning to really feel the difference and the improvement. Keep your focus and good luck all the way!!

Starry and sh315 have you checked out the Featherweights Forum? It is great for those who have only a little to lose or those who are close to goal.

That's great!!! Each pound does make a difference when you are so close to goal! It's nice to be able to see it too. Keep up the hard work!

That's encouraging! I think I've slowed down now to something closer to 6 pounds a month rather than 8, and I was OK with that because that's the way it goes. But I never thought of it that way - those same 6 pounds may show as much as the previous 8 pounds. Well, I guess if that were true for me right now, I'd have noticed it myself , but I'm not above a little mental trickery.
