My first goal off the year was to reach 10lbs by the end of January, and I did it today! A week early!! I'm so haappppppyyyyy!!

And another brag... everyday after I log my food journal I write down in a cheap calender in 5 weeks what I will weigh (for motivation), and I have already checked off the amount I should weigh on 2/5/11. Go me!

    Congrats MericoX. can you share the secret please. Need motivation.

    I log every single calorie, try to stay 1-2oo calories short of my alloted calories for the day. If I'm over I exercise, and even when I'm not over I exercise (not every day, about 3 times per week).

    I weight every.single.thing, unless it comes prepackaged. I also try to only eat a serving size, and if I'm still hungry after a meal I will have some fruit or chug down a bottle of water.

    Hey,

    There's nothing wrong with pumping yourself up. I'm sooooooooooooooooooo proud of you. Just super ecstatic for you. AND...you've given me a great idea..writing down what should weigh in 5 weeks. That is SUPER motivational. Thank you for sharing your positivity and your accomplishments. There are many more to come!

    Congratulations!

    Jean
