S/C/G: 260/see slider/135

Height: 5'1"

Default lost a decade!

I am now lighter than I have been in over a decade! I know because my youngest is 12 and the last time I was in the 220's was just after he was born. Here's some other facts about leaving the 230's (and 240's and 250's!) that I have discovered:

I now have nice thin ankles and feet
My wedding ring is loose
My back and leg pain has been reduced by about 90% and I'm not taking pain killers for it anymore
My face doesn't look nearly as puffy
I had to get out my smaller sized bras (not sure if that should be a or a - )
I'm no longer a size 26 pants
I now actually weigh LESS than it says on my driver's license!!!!!

All I can really say is "Thanks" to everyone here at 3fc for all the support and good information that's helped me develop a plan that is working!

on the weight loss firstly that is a great achievement. Secondly on the fact now you weigh less than you did a decade ago that must sure feel great.

Though along the way you have had many NSV with losing weight and they keep popping up and surprising you. Even the NSV can help keep us motivated as much as seeing the scales go in the right direction.

Keep up the good work, look forward to hearing to other mini goals along the way whether they are weight related or NSV.
