Yayyyyyyyyy!!
 

After a couple of weeks bouncing back and forth between 180 and 182, I finally broke the 180 barrier and dropped to 179! I am one happy clam! I have been trying really hard and being very patient, but it's so-o-o-o-o good to see some results at last.

Just for kicks I tried on a new pair of jeans someone gave me a couple of months ago. I couldn't begin to zip them up or button them then. They're still too tight to wear comfortably, but I can zip them up and button them now! :yay:

Isn't it great when that little old whoosh fairy finally decides to drop in on you? So unpredictable but, oh, so very welcome.

Keep up the good work (and the patience)!
