Good for you! Keep it up, it'll get easier! A good idea is to have several goals, rather than just a specific weight goal. Sometimes when the scale doesn't budge for a while it can be discouraging--so it helps to measure inches lost, or fat percentage lost, instead of just weight. I've lost 30 pounds of fat, and I have put on about 12 lbs of muscle, so the total weight loss is only about 18 pounds-- but I've dropped 2 dress sizes! So it's helpful to measure by other things than only total weight.0

Way to go!! What an awesome goal to reach!!!! Congratulations!
I agree with you, do not say UGH because you have so far to go....instead say YEAH....I lost another pound and I pray I never see that number on the scale again.
You see.... I am only 4' 11" and weighed 235. When I got under the 230 mark....I smiled and said I will not see that 230 on the scale again.
Keep up the good work!0 -

GREAT JOB!!! I'm doing the same thing, I have an overall goal, but I'm thinking of it 5-10 pounds at a time. Hitting those numbers keep me focused on successes. I think a lot of us have a end goal that is too much to think of at the start, at least I know I do.0

There's nothing "only" about 18 pounds. Great job!0

Exactly! Yay you on your progress so far, and your commitment to keep going! Like you, I know that I am going to be here for a long, long time. Instead of thinking about how I need to lose 150 pounds (gulp!) I think about how I am going to lose 15 pounds, 10 times.
Feel free to add me... we have a lot of similar goals and we are at about the same place in our journey.
Congrats again!0 -
