Good but what is your plan to accomplish that? Will you stick to your MFP calories? Exercises at least 3x week or? A goal is great but even better with a plan to accomplish it!0

When is your anniversary? That sounds like a great gift to yourself... I'm trying to lose 70 myself but my goal is by Jan 1.0

Go for it! The most helpful tips I could give you is to plan ahead, and track EVERYTHING. Making menus (usually 2 or 3 things I rotate through for breakfast - usually smoothies or oatmeal+fruit; a few menus for lunch - I'm trying to eat more salads with protein or tuna on sandwich thins; a few yummy snacks - i'm kind of stuck on popcorn, pistacios, and fruit; and a week's worth of dinner recipes) then shopping off that weekly plan help me stay on track. If I don't know what I'm going to eat, I usually end up grazing through the pantry and end up making hot fudge sauce and eating half of it (I know, I have a problem!). Tracking everything is so important! Even if - or especially if - you splurge unexpectedly. Half the time I'll log the feeding frenzy and realize that it's not so bad and plan the rest of my day around it. And if it is a really bad feeding frenzy, logging it helps me get over it. It's like I'm holding myself accountable, and not giving up.
Best of luck to you!0
