20 pounds down from my starting weight! Almost 25% towards my goal.
Note: this doesn't mean that I should expect 20 pounds/9 weeks. It'll likely be slower than that, since the first 20 pounds went off pretty quickly. And that's ok! It's not like dropping to about the 185-190 range is my only goal. Even getting to 255 was a pretty cool goal. And I'll have joy when I hit 249, and when I can wear 40 inch pants, and and and....
There's constant reinforcement and celebration along the way. This is one of those times. Feeling pretty good this morning.

Exercise
Did two sets of knee push-ups (25 and 22 - less than usual, but I just couldn't do any more) and planking (30 seconds each).
