Progress - 2 months in

Hey all! I have been trying to lose weight for more than a few years, but when I reached 180 lbs (5'2" female, 23) a few months back I decided that was it. It's the heaviest I've ever been. So, I started dieting, exercising, the like. And I'm happy to report that I've lost just over 10 pounds in the last two months, even with the holiday (which I actually lost weight during). This is huge for me, as my husband has lost about 50 pounds from just stopping drinking beer nearly as often. I have tried fad diets and exercises, but what has really helped has been learning about what I'm putting in my body and how weight loss really works.

This sub has been amazing for that. You have all been helpful in giving advice from calorie deficits to exercise routines to understanding that at some point the progress will stall out and it will be hard. I'm so appreciative for that, and I am looking forward to being at my goal weight (115lbs). My goal weight comes from talking with my doctor about a happy weight, and she suggests anywhere from 110 - 125. So I'm kinda in the happy middle.

I look forward to going through the year with you. Thanks so much for the support, and to those that are new, welcome! :)
