Okay, so I know it wasn't much, but IT WENT DOWN! I'm so excited!!! I need to set my goals. I think meeting them will help keep me motivated. Small goals all the way up to the big goal. I'm honestly not 100% sure what I want my final goal to be. As of now it's between 135lbs and 140lbs. I will re-evaluate as I lose more to see what weight I will be happy at. I'm 5'8 or so.

    That's awesome! I'm hoping we can be friends-I'm in about the same predicament as you with height, how much you weigh and where you want to get-might be a good "pace" Take care!

    Congrats!!! Every pound lost is one pound closer to your goal! Isnt it a great feeling?! :)

    I think it helped me when I put my mini goals in my signature so I could see them often and be reminded that I have lost weight already, and that I am creeping closer to those mini goals which means I am also getting closer to the bigger picture of overall health :) Good luck! And keep up the awesome work!

    Any loss is good in my book. Sent you a friend request. It looks like we are in the same hgt/wgt boat and thought we could row it together to get to our weight loss goals.

    I know how good that feels!!! I was just saying the same thing - "I can't believe the scale is FINALLY going down!" I was stuck at the same number forever..

    Just keep going, no matter what!! After a while, I hope you find you don't even want that much food anymore. Keep up the good work!! You should be very proud of yourself.
