I feel good today - another 2lbs off since last last check-in, making this month's average -1lbs/week, nice and sustainable.

Folks - if you like me you have a love/hate relationship with your scales, I find it helpful and inspiring to focus on NSV's. Weight loss is so much more than a number on a screen or a dial, it's about how you feel, a mindset and an attitude, and finding those little golden moments (like outfits that used to fit that are too big, or that were once too small that now fit, or noticing a reduction in flab in the mirror, or sometime saying "Did you lose weight? You look different somehow...") - those are the moments that can make the task we face seem worthwhile.

I think we're all wonderful and that fact that we're on here creating a supportive community and sharing those ups, downs, highs, lows, tips, fun, laughter and experiences only goes to prove it.

With so much death, destruction and hatred in the world it's up to individuals to reach out a hand of friendship, support and mutual understanding. Here, take mine!
