You should be proud, even if you want to lose more. I have lost 55 in 5 & 3/4 months and want to lose more, but I am still proud of what I have done.

One of my favorite visualizations - if you ever see them stocking butter at the grocery store, it comes in cases of 24 1-lb packages. 6 months ago, it was like both of us were walking around all day with a case of butter under each arm. Makes it easy to understand why we burn less calories now.
