    My Dad used to say, "Inch by inch, life is a cinch, yard by yard, it's very hard." You may have a lot of weight to lose but you also are going to be gaining so much along the way. I've noticed that it helps to focus more on the little changes in how you feel rather than the long path ahead of you.
