I tried losing weight as a new year’s resolution in 2010. I did okay for a while, but I fell off track and gained everything back.
I decided to do this again in 2012. I have been feeling really discouraged, thinking I would get no further than I did last time.
I even forgot how much I had lost. But I just logged into my old FitDay.com account and realized I only got down to about 15 pounds above where I am now. This is just really encouraging.
I know that sounds really stupid, but it just makes me really happy. Now I just need to drop a few more sizes so people start noticing.

Wow, 51 pounds is a very significant loss--I'll bet that people are already noticing! At any rate, you are doing great, and congratulations for sticking with it and pushing on!0
