small goals work for me

I'm really thrilled I started 45 days ago and set myself a small goal of losing 10lbs knowing also that 4 of those lbs were from a holiday so likely to come off quickly.
I am very sedentary due to my health, so 1lb a week would be fantastic for me.
This morning I made it. I haven't stuck completely to my calorie target but I have stayed close to it most days, with the odd extra 300 calories days thrown in. What has made the difference? My digital scales, eating 3 regular meals a day rather than skipping breakfast and snacking at lunch.
So I need to set a new small goal Think I might start doing measurements as well as weight.
Dead chuffed
