My very best friends spend half the year in New York City and just returned yesterday. We're planning lunch out -- my first excursion to a restaurant in 18 weeks. Mixed feelings in spades.
Oh, I know how you feel. I actually invited my preggers friend on a 'let's go walk a few miles' date instead of a 'let's go out to dinner date' ... bless her, she asked what was wrong, I told her, and we found a place where I could eat. It was really sweet.

But I did make it to over 25 pounds lost total, and now I'm over half way to my goal. Can't believe I am actually doing it!
I realized the other day I no longer have a double chin and then someone on here mentioned about their arm pits not being rounded but actually having a "pit." I got that too! (Can't believe I posted the last part of that I mentioned to my sister that my butt is starting to look like my step mother in-laws. Concave. There's a visual for ya
Everyone have a GREAT weekend!
Oops...Forgot....I'm in the 150's now. Yeah!
First, let me say ... whenever I had one milestone I didn't meet, there was another one I did! You got into the 150's...ok, you didn't get to 25 pounds, but barely...congrats!

Honestly, early on I'd read it as that I needed to measure meat raw, so I did. I think it makes much more sense cooked. Did others hear raw or cooked? I've often wondered, in fact, I've thought of starting a poll as a thread for it.
Day one of phase 4 was lovely...my mom (who KNEW I'd lost a lot since July) was still shocked when she saw me. She agreed...I was never this thin in either High School OR college...nice!! Best NSV for me yet!!!!
I'm glad everyone enjoyed the post -- thank you for all your kind words. The most important part for me in this journey has been sharing it with all of you...I mean it when I say that. Very few people understand what its like, and we have that in common.
Take care, everyone,
