Milestone!

It turns out that when you're 5' 2" and start at 161.8 pounds, 17 pounds lost is the magic number for people to start noticing like crazy.

I'm like.

Just in the last few days I've had about 7 friends and 4 co-workers mention something about looking like I've dropped a few pounds.

It's crazy exciting, motivating, and just makes me feel dang good.  I know that weight is obviously a sensitive topic and most people think it's rude to mention weight to someone at all, but I am here to say that if you are certain someone has lost weight, nothing will make them feel better than noticing it.

17 pounds down.  18.8 pounds to go.  Almost halfway there!
