Can anyone give me advice on staying on target when you get to a low amount of weight because every time I get to a good weight which makes me happy i cheat really bad.

I set a goal and a reward. If I get to X lbs, then I get to have mexican food for dinner one night. Or if I work out 5 days in a row, I can have a treat. That way I have my 1 cheat and that is all and I'm back on track. Otherwise I'd get to my goal and cheat my way back to where I started.

This 5# would put me at my first personal goal! I also do what another post said, weigh a couple times a week to make sure i did ok with sodium intake and such the prior day, I adjust my day accordingly after.
I'm setting small goals for myself in hopes that it keeps me motivated.

I'm also joining in late. I just found this. I've been back to MFP for a little over the week. I don't know where I found it but I come with a new found commitment. And while I expect challenges I am determined to keep it. I have had a fantastic week. I used the forums to find some online support, came across this and think it's a great way to keep myself on track and accountable and my progress is good so far this week. I am excited for my Saturday weigh in!

Here's my stats starting up.

My 4th half marathon went amazingly well on June 2(the first one where I will weigh under 200 pounds) where I shaved 14 minutes off my PB (personal best). What a difference 30 pounds makes!
After so long without scale movement it is hard to believe!
I haven't weighed this low in over 15 years!

Congratulations! I can't imagine doing a half marathon right now, but on Tuesday I will be doing my 2nd 5K (well really it's a 3.5 mile, but whatever). I ran this same one last year and found out a week later I was pregnant, this year I'm 3 months post partum, wonder which time will be better.

15/6 110. My weight this morning was actually 109 but yesterday I had a VERY yucky stomach!!y weight yesterday morning was 110 so I'm sticking with that cause I think the 109 could have been due to the fact that my stomach was upset!
