Amazing!! I just had that discussion with my family last night because I have now dropped from a size 26 to a 22 and wanted to get rid of the big clothes. I will keep my biggest pants for my own picture this fall. 133 lbs in 7 months is just incredible and inspirational to me!! Way to go!!!

    I have my maxed amount of epidural shots of my cervical DDD....(and no one cares about my lumbar DDD)..... I've done physical therapy, muscle relaxers, Amitriptyline, Nortryptiline, desipramine.....narcotics... So I decided to go to a spine specialist and they have me on Gabapentin. Its been two weeks and it did nothing for my lumbar ever... but it did seem to help my cervical and arm/hand pain...
