Well I have been at this for about 2 1/2 months. I started Sept 18, 2008. I weighed 255. As of thrusday morning 12/04/08 I weighed 232. I have lost 23 pounds. I have about 2 more weeks until the 3 month mark. If I lose 3 more pounds it will be 30 pounds, that is 10 pounds a month. It would be so awesome if I could keep losing 10 pounds a month because I would be at my goal of 150 in less than a year. But I know that realistically 10 pounds a month is incredible and will probably stop soon. But that is ok. As long as I keep losing I am on the right track. I was looking back at my weightloss journal and I have not had any gain in the past 2 1/2 months. I have one week where I stayed the same, and the other weeks were losses. I am so proud of myself. Now if I could just get my back in order I could exercise.
Congratulations! This is a huge accomplishment!! And you have the right mind set to have long term success. You know it might not always be 10lbs a month and accepting that means you are on the road to success!
That is awesome! You have such a good attitude about it I'm the same way... I know I'm not ALWAYS going to lose 20 lbs a month but it's sure nice while it's lasting!!!
dek, I don't know what to say. I'm just SO happy for you. Just keep at it. Keep on going. You WILL get to that goal weight of yours. There's absolutely nothing to stop you.

Anyways, I too accept it may not always be huge numbers but They all add up in the end.I AM PROUD OF YOU!!! YOUR DOING GREAT....We will be our goal weight before we know it.
