Lost 24 pounds over 5 months and steady going

So I went to the doctor and after being there the last time which was about a month ago I lost 8 more pounds and overall my doctor told me I lost 24 pounds over the span of 5 months. I was thinking to myself well it could of been more, but he told me its hard to do and not a lot of people can do what I have been doing this is keeping me encouraged and motivated to keep losing weight and all the compliments I have been getting are extremely helpful. I am down from a 26-28 to almost a 22 in my pants now... (they are a little snug still got some abdominal work to do.) I am still grateful and all praises go to GOD for giving me the strength to keep up with this. It was super hard as a college student to eat healthy but I manged to get it done. I faced my inner problems and decided enough was enough hopefully by my birthday another 10-15 will come off. :)
