A better way to look at things (my motto for 2011)

I noticed something pretty interesting today. My current weight minus my goal is 52 pounds. That sounds pretty intimidating. But then I looked at it in a different light: there are 52 weeks in a year. So I have a new motto for 2011. 52 weeks, 52 pounds. Losing one pound per week doesn't sound intimidating at all. In fact, it sounds pretty darn manageable.

I guess the purpose of this post is just remind some of us who may feel intimidated to just take it slow, focus on your weekly or monthly goals (whichever you prefer), and before you know it, the weeks will start flying by, and the pounds will start flying off.

    If I can stay motivated & committed, I could be at my goal weight by June or July (realistic timeline). :bigsmile: That makes me smile!
