Plan: Meats & Veggies
Stats: 255/167/160 Female 66 inches
BF:??/36%/25%
Progress: 93%
Default 50 pounds and 4 sizes

I've officially lost 50 pounds (255 to 205), dropped 4 jean sizes (24 to 16) and slimmed from an XXL shirt down to a L. I can even get into a few 14s, if the designer is generous.

6 more pounds until I see that beautiful number "1" at the beginning of my weight...The idea of breaking that barrier is daunting. I don't know why I'm so full of apprehension about it. I should be thrilled!
