I am 12.2lbs above the healthy range. 12.2 lbs. It boggles my mind. I have never succeeded at anything in my life the way I am succeeding at this lifestyle change. It makes me proud of myself. When people tell me I look good, I tell them thanks and that its nice to hear. Because it is. Sometimes I still look in the mirror and think I could stand to lose another 50lbs but the more I hear from people that I look good, the better I feel. I guess I still need outside validation that I look ok. That I probably look normal to people who have never met me before. I am no longer starred at (or laughed at by kids) as I ride my bike around the neighborhood. I am only 12.2lbs overweight. I am at my lowest weight in my memory and it feels awesome.

Girl you are so awesome!! Congrats!! Enjoy every minute of the accomplishment you've reached. It'll take a while for your brain to catch up with your body - years ago when I lost 60 pounds I'd still go into a store and pick up large clothes to try on - even though I could easily fit into smalls and x-smalls.
Keep it up!! (Oh and I love that my work verification is "supthot" -- like "super hot" ;)
I never would have thought you were 180 in high school so you must look smokin' now! Go Amy! :)
I am so excited for you! Amy you deserve every compliment you get. Just looking at your profile picture I think you look amazing! By the way, you inspired me to sign up for my first 10k. I have been running with my pooch an average of 2 miles 4x a week and about to kick it up to three next week. I only have 20-30 minutes to squeeze in the milage so I have to start waking up earlier... yikes! The race is Thankgiving Day. I'll be thinking of you;)
I'm so impressed, AND I think you look amazing!! Keep up the good work, Amy!
so jealous that you are under 160's. i have been having a hard time getting motivated but now seeing your lower numbers i am so going to catch up to you ;P bring it! hahaha
