It has been a while since I've posted anything, but my weight loss is going well. I'm currently at 186 and am quite happy. My doctor wants me at 165 but honestly I believe I'll be happy at 175.

I have 40 lbs to go to reach my goal weight and I'm feeling great. I continue to work out, which takes commitment. I feel like completely different person, which at times is overwhelming. I struggle to figure out who this new person is. I was hiding in my own skin and now I feel more confident ...
