"Have You Lost Weight?"

I posted a picture of myself on a forum the another day and a friend remarked, "you've lost weight, right?" To which I replied, "yeah - 30lbs to be exact". And then after I wrote the response, it got me thinking, "wait a minute, it's closer to 40lbs". The exact figure is 37lbs. I'm 37lbs lighter than when I arrived in Vancouver, March of this year.

When you've lost that amount of weight over such a time, it honestly doesn't sink in until someone else notices. You think to yourself: "wow, yeah, I had almost forgot".

Mind you, I do have a few photo's of myself back from March and I can't even bear to look at them. Looks like a different (but better) person

I suppose I hadn't thought about how much of an accomplishment it really is. Yahoo for me?
