    This month is a biggie for me as at the end of it, I will turn 40. My original plan was to lose 15 in Jan & Feb as I am quitting smoking on 3/1 (the BIG day). I don't think I will realistically make the 15 but if I am close, I will be happy with it as it means that I have set good eating and exercise as habits that will move forward as I put the beat down on smokey.

    Dawn - this is a HUGE goal! This is so important for taking care of you. We are behind you all the way.

    Because it will be my final goal achieved, I will repost my success story (I did one for one year's MFP success so far) and then I am going to treat myself to some luxurious face cream - and maybe open a bottle of sparking wine and enjoy! And log it :laugh:
