Down 60 and still going

I have been hanging out at around 60 lbs lost for a few weeks now.  I think I'm stuck.  It's frustrating because I still feel like I'm working like crazy to lose weight.  I'm working out in some form 5-6 times a week, still counting every calorie, and it absolutely drives me crazy when I hit a plateau.  Sometimes it makes me wonder why I'm still trying, but when I see a picture of what I looked like 60 lbs ago, I'm instantly reminded why I keep trying. 

This weekend, I tried on a pair of shorts that I wore last summer that were actually a bit snug on me then.  They literally fell right off!  That is also a fantastic motivator!  I decided to pull all the clothes out of my closet that no longer fit me.  As a result, my closet is looking rather bare, but I'm okay with it because all of those clothes are too big!



And me in my shorts from last summer:

I still have more weight to lose, and I have a lot of toning to do and it's easy to get caught up on how far I still have to go and to get frustrated when the number stops going down on the scale for longer than I'd like, but it's good to be able to look at how far I've come.  It keeps me going.
