Week 8 DONE - & HALF way there!

I've now lost 24 pounds. I honestly can't believe it, I don't think my brain has caught up with what has actually happened in the last two months. 

And although I am almost down 2 dress sizes, I'm still just as anxious as ever to get to my goal. 

I KNOW I will get there, and I know it won't be too much longer... But I JUST WANT IT NOW! ;) 

Patience is a virtue, they say... A virtue I don't have too much of I guess. 

I would say that 40% of the time, staying OP is EASY- those days that I have so much going on, that food really is just an after thought. 

The other 60% of the time, it's a small struggle- those same ol' mind games... "Gosh I'm bored, I wish I could eat..." or "While I'm out, I might as well get some fast food..." Which tells me, I still have a lot to learn-- habits or 'thoughts of old habits' REALLY are hard to break.  

I will say, that going off-plan at all has never been an option. I know that the goal is in sight, and NO food is worth delaying that goal. 

The Good News:
-Down 24 lbs & 16 inches
-Over half-way to goal!!
-Finally out of the "Overweight" BMI and into "Normal"
-Continually losing 2lbs/week

The Bad News:
-Still feeling weak on occasion and thus,
-I haven't started working out...

Any advice?? How is the weight-loss going for you?
