Hey Sally! I will give you a giggle at my expense.... I recently re-measured myself (after losing approx. 20 pounds) and between my hips and waist I lost 7 inches BUT (here is the clincher) I GAINED an inch in my arms and 2I inches in my thighs!! Crazy bodies I think kaplods gave some wonderful insight and I wanted to let you know that you aren't alone in the WTF moments lol

I will just hang in there and see how things fit when I hit the 250 and 235 mark and then take it from there. I have never been under 235 in my adult life and am anxious to see where it takes me from there.

You just have to look back a bit to how far you've come.The time it takes as you move closer to goal, just seems to slow down. I hope you can look back at where you started from and say Wow! because I see what you have done to date and and say that. Really great! 80lbs.!
On a personal note for all the frustration I had last week I have finally broken the 220s. 218lbs. this morning. Yay! today is a good day. Wishing you all the best.
