If I lose 1 pound a week....

By Valentine's Day, I'd be 7 pounds lighter.
I'm loving it!
By St. Patrick's Day, I'd be ll pounds lighter.
With the luck of the Irish, I'll make my goal!
By Easter, I'd be 16 pounds lighter.
I'd be a cute bunny!
By Memorial Day, I'd be 23 pounds lighter!
Won't let it rain on my parade!
By Flag Day, I'd be 25 pounds lighter.
Boy, could I wave my flag, then!
By Independence Day, I'd be 27 pounds lighter.
That's a great independence from over eating!
By Labor Day, I'd be 36 pounds lighter.
What a wonderful reward for my hard work!
By Columbus Day, I'd be 41 pounds lighter.
What a joy to discover what I can do!
By Halloween, I'd be 44 pounds lighter.
I didn't think I had a ghost of a chance!
By Thanksgiving, I'd be 47 pounds lighter.
I have so much to be thankful for!
By Christmas Eve, I'd be 51 pounds lighter.
Talk about being merry!
By New Year's Eve, I'd be 52 pounds lighter.
It's not just a new year, it's a new ME!

Someone read this sweet little poem to me in early January and it really had an impact on me. I'm am one of those people who gives up as soon as the scale stalls. 1 pound of week is never good enough my impatient brain so I give up and end up right where I started or even heavier. This time, I'm going to keep this poem in the forefront of my mind and hopefully it will help keep me on track. I'd be happy to be 52 pounds lighter 1 year from today! I hope it helps you too....good luck!

Thank you, this is just the encouragement I need right now. I don't take time to look at the big picture, and tend to get lost in the day to day stuff.

I'm glad it helped some of you. I know that if I keep it in my mind, it helps offset the times when the scale stays the same.
