and yet here i am. I just weighed myself and i am so.. close to my goal weight. I never thought I could, I just said to myself "just get through today" and i would repeat the same thing the next day. I'm only 13 lbs away... I haven't been this weight since high school, =) if i can do this.. anyone can.

    When I started on MFP I only planned to lose 8lbs, to get down to the weight I was this time last year. But it was so sort of easy (not totally easy, I had some weeks where I didn't lose anything, Grrr) and when I got to my original target I thought, lets go for 7lbs more, once I got there, I thought 7 more? and now I'm at a weight which is the lowest I've been since before I got married, I want to lose more.
    Sorry to waffle, but what I guess I'm saying is that I've had loads of goals and got to each of them, I suppose my real goal would be to reach 9st something. At 5ft 6" that's still highish, but lower than any weight I've ever been, ever. I would love to be able to say I'm 9st something!!

    I know.. when I first started, I was like there is no way I will ever get to where i want to be.. thats 20 pounds from now! Now that I've only got 5 left until I re-assess, I'm like yea I can do this.. and it feels freaking amazing!
