Update

Wow, I thought I had updated a little while ago, but I guess I didn't.
I am still losing weight, though it has slowed down some, a steady 1.5 lbs every week or so, not too shabby.

I have started exercising more to help with the process. I had been dealing with so much fatigue before that it felt impossible, but now I am really feeling great.
I have been able to workout and still do house chores and not need to go to bed at 9:00!

This morning I weighed myself and I am 199! I am so excited to be under 200! Granted that is before breakfast without my pants on, but hey, I'll take it!

I would love to lose another 15-25 lbs before our trip to Hawaii in December, I know I can do it if I put my mind to it.

My high calorie foods are olives, almonds, popcorn with agave and coconut oil (tastes like kettle corn, mmm!), grawnola, and sometimes dried fruit and avocados. I easily go over board with these, so I just need to watch myself and keep up my motivation to exercise.

I wish I had a good current picture of me, but I usually don't like how they turn out. I think this pic shows off my thinner face:
And here's a pic of my kids enjoying my kettle corn on a painting day:
