GW with reward

So I keep seeing people posting their SW, different GW and then a little reward they have by each goal weight. I think that I need to do that too. I want something to mark my progress as I go- in a positive way. I seem to be feeling very negative now that I am half way through my weight loss. I am more neurotic about calories and eating....not conscientious. And feel worse about how I look b/c even after losing 10 lbs and having 12 more to go I just feel like I'm still overweight and that it is not enough to be losing...only to be at my target weight. This is not making my daily wt loss experience positive. So I think I'm going to implement some rewards!

  • I know exactly how you feel! I've lost around 10 pounds too and actually feel kind of worse. I'm so impatient and want to get to my goal weight already! I look in the mirror and think i look so fat. I never used to think this way before my weight loss journey. But because now I am so set on losing weight and getting fit, I can't help but just want all this fat off me NOW. Sigh but we can't always get instant gratification.

    I've come to accept this and use this as motivation to keep losing weight and eating right.

    I've implemented rewards too! It's super fun to think about and plan. I sometimes fantasize about the day the reach my goal and get my reward. ;)

    Girls just remember that your not where you were, and today is going to pass by, you can either get one step closer to your goal, or one step farther away.... Patience on this journey is hard, but I find it helps to remember that today is today nomatter what and I minds well do what I can today to be closer to my goal tommarro.. Best wishes :D
