    Thank you for the reminder that even though it will not be easy, it will definitely be worth it!

    So true. I find myself in one of those states of mind at least 364 days of the year.

    I wish there was a way to make this required reading before posting complaints in the forums! ;-)

    Thanks. I've been seeing people posting links to this post on other forum topics so hopefully it's helping all those two-weekers who want to give up because they haven't already lost five pounds.

    Thanks for the encouragement and letting us 80 pounders know what to look forward to. I just started and quickly lost about 10 pounds but have since hit a plateau despite working out and eating way less/healthier. I'm hoping months 2 and 3 are much better to me. :)

    you're hysterical! thanks for sharing your journey and CONGRATS! 80lbs is a HUGE accomplishment

    I had only 45lbs to lose when I began my weight loss journey 2 years ago. Losing 15lbs in 30 days through nutritional rebalancing was effortless as was keeping it off, so I can't really relate to all the challenges.

    My challenge is EXERCISE!

    I lump the people who say they LOVE to exercise with the women who say giving birth is wonderful and doesn't hurt. Those lying liars! haha

    So ... when you say you started to LOVE exercise, what exactly was it that flipped that switch for you?
