Default Over 50 pounds lost!!
I have been at a 50 pound loss for a week or so and I say I have lost over 50 in a few ways. For one, I lost the same 5 pounds in February (yep.. I gained 5 pounds of Vday candy and stuff so I had to relose those), also at the beginning of my journey I always weighed myself on my carpet floor which always makes my weight 2 pounds LESS (so 273 could have been 275) and with all that together it's been about 59.7 pounds I have lost through this journey.

I'm not on a certain plan. I just eat when I am hungry now (better food choices though) and not when I am bored, which is hard because I still get food cravings when I am not even hungry, but I've been on this journey for 6 months now so I am getting better. I went from being a 21 to a now 16 (I just bought GAP 16s yesterday and they fit perfect!) I went from 1x and 2x shirts to XL. I'm so excited for what's to come because I haven't been at this weight since 3 years ago! I'm 5'6'' so I don't know yet if 150 will be right for my body but when I get there you better believe I will be posting!!!

I also brought my ACT score up to a 22.. lol I thought I should post all of my accomplishments.

Congrats Pixie! You are awesome!

Isn't it amazing how quickly our bodies change! You are doing a great job, and keep up the good work!

I thank God everyday I don't have to look at another ACT or SAT test. Great Job on the test!

Thank you! Congrats on your weightloss as well!

It is and it's a beautiful thing alright!

Haha I know!! I really dislike standardized testing because I know I am.smarter than that number and it doesn't define me. When I'm done taking it I will be just as glad as you.

Congrats on the loss Pixie! I'm so happy for you

And good work on getting the ACT score up. I HATE standardized tests. I had to take the LSAT back in October and I hope it's the last standardized test I have to see for a long time...
