Mini Goals. Yes! They have saved me over and over from being discouraged. I had almost 200 pounds to lose and it was just too overwhelming so I have 5 pound goals. It gives me a boost to know I made a goal EVERY month.

I've decided to do mini-goals, I think they'll help me... I'd like to have some little "reward" each time I hit one to commemorate the moment (and vow not to go back, lol) but I don't know what (just not food). Do you reward for goals met?

That great to hear! I also make small monthly goals. You have done great so far, keep it up!

Hi,
I do reward myself every 20 pounds by tossing old baggy clothes into a garbage bag! Sounds silly but it is very rewarding to watch my shape change and the weight come off. For every 5 pounds I get an ice vanilla coffee (even sillier) to just pep me up and I'm good to go and reach my next 5 pound goal! I also take a photo after every 30 pounds and post it on my calendar. I weigh myself every Sunday and every Thursday then post on the same calendar what I weigh. It is very helpful and makes me accountable!
Good Luck. Judi
