Ht. 5'1", Start: 204 lb, Today: 123.4 lb (BMI: 23), Goal: 115 lb - Under 10 pounds to my goal weight, woohoo!
So I pretty much maintained at 127-128 from Thanksgiving-New Year's, and it's only been since I've come back from my vacation 3 wks ago that I've really gone back to my normal meal plan.
I've had this on and off again sickness for about 2 weeks now - can't figure out what it is, symptoms keep changing, lol - I'm thinking it was a cold and now it's strep =/, so I've been taking in a lot of tea and water which has probably helped me drop some of the weight, I dunno.
I'd like to get better though so I can start running again. There's another 5k in April I'd like to run. My husband and I are also planning on joining a gym in February to start getting toned for summer so I'm excited about that too.
Hope everyone got through the holidays unscathed and is doing well with their efforts =).

That is fantastic! Considering how far you've come...what's another 10lbs? You'll be there in no time at all!
I hope you get better soon, it's no fun being sick! Good luck with your training for the 5k! That'll be fun - I'm looking into one in my area...I'm not ready for the 30k taking place in March! lol.

Sounds like you're doing great yourself - congratulations!
Honestly, I have NO idea what's been working for me, lol. I think a lot has to do with moderation in my food consumption. I have found that I don't want to eat nearly as often or as bad as I did before so it's kind of a cycle for me - eat better/less, get smaller, which makes me eat better/less and continue getting smaller.
A few things I incorporated from the very beginning and have tried to stay consistent with are: 1. Don't eat late at night; 2. Eat on a plate; 3. Exercise (running mainly) 4-5 times a week; 4. Cut out most sodas/sugary drinks from my liquid intake.
Yeah, other than that, I would say my motivation of seeing people I hadn't seen in 2 years plus all of the great compliments I've been getting keep me going =).

You've lost so much weight!! What have you been doing? I was at 180 a few years ago, dropped down to around 150, and then down to 135 (where i am now), but I've been stuck here for a while. Any tips?! I'd like to be around 120
