Congratulations! What I found weird when I first lost weight, is that for a while it made certain prominent pockets of fat look bigger than when I was bigger all over! (I'm talking thighs here, not boobs). If you're feeling better and the weight is coming off, then that sounds good to me.
You've noted in the past that you don't follow the plan so much when you dine out - is there a correlation between how much you've been eating out and how much you've lost? (There may not be, but it is something to maybe check...)
You forgot to mention that your skin is all clear and smooth and healthily glowy!

You forgot to mention that your skin is all clear and smooth and healthily glowy! A good point :)
Really, that's all that matters. Don't focus on "where" you're losing it: as your body loses weight, your proportions will change slightly, and your brain's model of what you look like will have problems, and so relative judgements about how you look won't work for you.
Keep it up. Aim for healthy loss. (and, by the way, o sleepy one: losing sleep is a way to retain weight.... I know, I know, more odious diet advice, about something that's hard to change.... My apologies.)
losing sleep is a way to retain weight And just plain unpleasant. Hence the late supper. Which I wasn't going to stop, because it is good to be able to sleep, but if losing sleep encourages weight retention, then even more so.
