Okay. I realize it might not seem like a big deal, but it is to me. I've lost my first pound this week and I am THRILLED! I am highly motivated to continue on this path and am looking forward to losing more of me!

I plan on keeping my eyes forward and making it happen. It is my hope for you that you are also on the move and that things are moving in a positive direction for you.

Have a blessed day, everyone!

    one pound is a very big deal. from what I heard one pound is 5 pounds of pressure off of your knees so that is awesome

    Nice job. The first feels great. Remember how you feel now, so when it gets tough you will have one more thing to focus on. Imagine good you will feel when you hit your final goal!

    It's not about the pound, it's about the confidence that the lost pound brings. This is a huge deal. STrong Work.

    I'm a bit sad to see that the OP hasn't been back since the end of July, I hope she hasn't 'fallen off the wagon'.

    It takes a 3500 calorie deficit for every pound of loss or gain. It seems it is much easier to gain than to lose. So keep in mind that you had a total 3500 calorie deficit for that one pound. That is AMAZING. it takes hard work and a healthy diet but the euphoria you feel for every pound is amazing. You got this.
