Journey continues

My weight loss journey has been a pretty good one for once. I have lost 27.2 lbs since 10/13, going from 246.4 to 219.2. I have not made huge sacrifices, I have partied, I gone out to eat and I have lived life. I have not been doing as well the past month due to many changes in my life, but I am still losing.  I have recently broke up with my long term boyfriend, started a massive cleaning on my house, started taking on-line classes and am continuing to be a full-time therapist and mom.  I think I forgot how hard it is to be a single mom.  While my boyfriend was not always the best "dad" at least he was there after school and could help out around the house.  I feel blessed at this date that my son is now almost 11 and is able to start helping me more around the house.  Anyway, the weeks are rolling on and the pounds are falling off and I am feeling better about myself.  I have lost 2 pant sizes since I began this journey, going from a 20 to a 16. I am getting closer to that 200 lb mark and that is huge for me because I remember a few years ago when I said I was never going to go over it.  Amazing how that turned into 50 lbs over it.  Fast food was my downfall, but I have cut it significantly down. I remind myself every day, slow and steady wins the race.  I put this weight on over time and the only way to take it back off is over time as well.
