I am so stoked! I just started just over a week ago with watching what I eat and joined a small weekly group thru a local church and started going with my cousin to her gym. I weighed in last week at an all time high for me. I was so stoked to see that I had lost a whopping 6 pounds! I haven't stopped eating any of my favorite foods yet, but I have cut back on portion sizes. Having to record what I eat is often a deterrent for snacking. I don't want to do that "work".

Yahoo!!!!!

I wonder what my first reward should be when I hit my first goal of 25 lbs gone (out of 120)...

    That's great news! First of many losses. Post again when you decide on your reward.

    That's great! The same thing happened for my husband when he started eating the right portion sizes. Keep it up and give yourself an amazing reward!
  • At this point I'm thinking a new hair cut, something that maybe I won't need a hair tie to keep out of my face. We'll see, got a long way to go. Maybe a new audio book to listen to while I work out or a new eBook.
