The first 40 lbs came off uber fast - basically I've been using an ipod app called 'fitday' - it is a calorie journal. I've stopped drinking all calories no matter what. Then I've reduced my caloric intake to less than 2k a day (varying from 1600 to 2000) depending on the day. Then I have stopped taking my car to work - commuting 10 miles daily rain or shine on a bike. Then I spend 5 hours a week doing yoga and spin classes (3 hours spin one week / 2 hours yoga - alternating the next week). I just recently started the yoga, before that it was spin and ellipticals. I picked up yoga for strength/ flexibiity. . . (absolutely love it now). . .

I'm also jogging about 5 miles a week now. . .(a mile at a time - I still suck at the jogging).

I've also started going on longer bike rides on weekends and I'm up to 40 miles. . . (when I first got on the bike, I barely made it around the block).

Thats it. . .

Congrats. Must feel great. Keep it up.
