well its been 4 months now and I have lost 70 lbs went from 262-191.5 its been a long road  but it is worth it . while I was on vacation at the coast i found out I could not eat at my favorite place called the boiling pot cajaun style seafood , it was too spicy and i was sick all night . the best part of the vacation was that this was the first time I did not gain weight,but I lost weight on vaction,it was the best.
my husband and I went walking along the water every morning and evening it was great. 
I have met my 6 month goal 2 months early .
