I have recently lost 21.5 lbs. I have plateaued a little bit lately but when I looked in the mirror today I realized how great I look despite being another 17.5 lbs away from my goal. Today reminded me to celebrate any weight loss and improvement in health and to focus on the positive(losing 21.5 lbs) and working on changing the negative(17.5 lbs to go)!

5'7"
SW: 159
CW: 137.5
GW: 120
Going forward I am thrilled about my current weight loss and am ready to tackle the last half of it!

    I am so happy for you. Every pound lost is 3500 calories gone and you lost 21.5 that is wonderful. It's gets harder as you get closer. So you have to find another source of achievement the scale is not going to give it you. have fun get with other people. For you one pound is a bigger person 5 pounds. So every ounce for you counts of a great achievement. I am 5'2.5 and that's my goal weight. Yes it is going to be a little hard. You can do it if you want too. Technically you are at your correct weight. That's why its getting harder.
