For the curious...

I'm down 33.0 pounds now. This weight loss has all occurred in the last eight weeks. In the beginning, the pounds dropped off very quickly. Over the last month or so, however, the loss has averaged right around two pounds per week.

I've completely changed my eating habits in this time, and I hope that I can stick to this new regime. I'd really like to keep losing. I've begun setting "mini-goals" for myself, and I have a few numbers in mind for certain dates of the next year. It'll be exciting if the weight loss keeps up. :-)
