Smile My Third 10% Goal!

Today marks the third time I've lost ten percent of my total body weight. I chose to use 10% points for this set of mini-goals, with a few other goals along the way . . .
  • 360 - starting point
  • 324 - first goal
  • 292 - second goal
  • 263 - current weight!
  • 237 - next goal, and only 2 pounds from my Christmas challenge goal of 235
  • 214 - fifth goal
  • 193 - sixth goal
  • 174 - seventh goal
  • 157 - eighth goal
  • 142 (?) - final goal has always been 150, but I'm willing to be flexible
I think it's really helped me to break it down like this, and for the first time in ages I have hope again for not only the 220's (my lowest weight as an adult), but beyond. I can't wait to see where I'm at by my birthday in February, as I hope I can get down to that area by then.

I know I haven't always been an avid poster but I do read here a lot and find inspiration from all of you every day. I doubt I'd have done this well so far if it weren't for everyone's support.

that's such a good idea - 100+ pounds sounds so UNimaginable, so UNdo-able but 10% sounds something we can manage! PS Avatar is rockin'

Wooo Hooo!!!

I can't look at small goals too closely, for me I need to see the big picture.. but I have broke down my 10%s and keep them as a tiny victory! I hit my first 10% this week.. I'm so excited!

Oh my.

You have lost almost 100 even pounds. That is so amazing and wonderful! It is truly awesome. You'll have yto write up a "mini-goal" entry for it to encourage us all.

You know what I think is really important to let others know--it's the mental shift you have made. You had one way of looking at food, one way of looking at your body, and the world around you. That has changed. I know it has. It must change before and during the loss of so many pounds over so much time.

I am so thrilled for you! I'm so excited--and inspired, too. Because if you can do what it takes to lose 100 pounds, then I can too, (I hope).

Rock on, sister.
