I need a pat on the back..

That's an amazing progress, so far so good, keep in mind it will probably slow down a bit but don't get depressed over it keep doing what you're doing and keep counting

Exactly what I was going to day. That's an amazing job but please don't become discouraged when you don't lose 7.5 more pounds in another 15 days. You'll continue to lose but not at that rate.

That being said: *pat pat pat* great work sweetie...keep up the fantastic work. You're doing the best thing for yourself you can; getting healthy. Healthy leads to happy and happy leads to smiles and smiles leads to more happy.

Celebrate every achievement! WTG!

Great job on sticking with it for 2 weeks! I think the first 2 weeks is the hardest. Now, please understand in the first 2 weeks you lose a lot of water weight, and you will not keep up this pace til the end. I lost about the same amount in my first 2 weeks, then actually gained a lb in the 3rd week, before I settled into 1-2 lbs a week. So don't freak out if you see no scale loss in week 3, or even a slight increase. Stick to your goals and the weight will come off.
Just think- a little over 1 lb a week will have you at goal in a year. A year may seem like a long time, but it really isn't. If you had started this a year ago, imagine where you would be now. Can you envision yourself at goal weight this time next year? Or even half way there?
I lost around 50 of 75 lbs in my first year. In the past, I would have thought of myself as failing since I didn't make goal when I wanted to, but I looked and felt SO fantastic compared to the year before. NO WAY could I see that as a failure!

When you start to get frustrated, look at the progress you HAVE made.
Also, take your measurements now so that when the scale doesn't move like you want, you can see progress with inches.

:drinker: Here's to a fantastic year for you!

You can add me and I will comment on your success! (only if you will share your diary though)
