That is awesome! Congratulations! Do you work out/exercise? What is your exercise schedule like? We have similiar starting weight and I'm almost 5 weeks out. I'm losing about 3.5-4 lbs a week, but would love to lose like you are.

You are doing great!! Some weeks you will lose more and some weeks less.....BUT at the rate you are losing at 6 months out you will be under 200 too!! It seems slow when you look at the weekly amount, but when you multiply that times 26 weeks (6 months) it doesn't seem so slow, does it?

I started going to curves almost two months ago. Most weeks I go three times a week..some only two. I lost about 40 pounds the first month and then averaging 20 a month since then. This month is a little slower..I'm three weeks in to the month and I've lost 11...hoping to hit 15 for the month. Good luck!! How tall are you? I'm 5'9

You are much taller than me...lol I'm a shorty, as in 5'2". I thought about joining Curves, I like the atmosphere there better than at a gym where you are on your own. I belonged to Curves years ago and loved it. Only thing is, I have access to a state-of-the-art gym for free and can't seem to come to spending money at Curves. Something I will have to seriously think about.

Congrats again on your amazing weight loss!!!

Congrats! Can't wait to get there!!!

It will hurt. It will take time. It will require dedication. It will require willpower. It requires sacrifice. There will be temptation. But, I promise you, when you reach your goal, it's WORTH IT! (Author Unknown). I feel this sums up my ongoing journey to a healthier me!
