13. CONGRATS! Woohoo!
:woohoo:

Sounds like me when I started losing weight back in August.
I've lost 40 lbs since then. I still want to lose about 10-20 lbs at the most. It gets really difficult once you've been doing it for a while. Difficult in the sense of, it takes more to lose the same thing.

Since last year when I started, I've had to keep buying new clothes pretty frequently to stay in a pair of pants. My old belts don't fit me anymore. I've dropped about 10 pant sizes!

I think it's been more difficult lately here in CO to get out and get exercise, because it's really f-in cold. You've inspired my ass to get up and go out even in the cold. Thanks. :P
