State of the Upgrade

I am 2-3 sizes down in clothes. I've had people, who didn't know I was trying to lose weight, tell me I am looking really good. Last week I had a regular massage and a 15 minute massage. Both people asked me if I had lost a lot of weight. (Who knew your neck could look so different to someone...) It's made me feel really good about my slow progress. It hasn't been all that difficult... which helps reaffirm that my plan of slow weight loss is something that I can maintain. It has also had a great, unexpected side affect - my husband has lost some weight! Of course we are having a ton of Kitchen Adventures, but we are both working on our portion sizes and it's working. 

So what is the current state of the upgrade? I am working off the little bit I gained from our trip to California. I've started focusing on strength training and I'm going to get back to dancing regularly. Instead of dancing, Ian and I have been taking some walks around the neighborhood. But it's getting super hot out so I'm sure that will slow down. I'm looking forward to the next 6 months. At the very least, I feel so much better. :)
