This was a fantastic reminder! Thank you so much!
I totally agree with Radiojane for the new years dresses!!!

We just decided to go to Maui in December so mindset ADJUSTED!

Thank you for this Jessica! I also gained which was DEFINITELY not in my plans, but like others have said I saw this month as my reboot, and complete lifestyle change! I have a lot of motivation and drive now that I remember having the first time I lost 70+ pounds! I know I can do this, and knowing I still have half of a year to meet many goals motivates me more!

Thanks for the reminder :) Every winter I say I wont spend the next summer fat. Well I am fat so I will spend this summer actually losing some pounds instead of just dreaming about it :)

chellesmiles - That's a great attitude to have!

I have a pretty modest goal of being in the 230's by the end of the year. Right now it seems modest...we'll see how I'm doing once the holidays hit and it 10 degrees outside.

Thank you Jessica for reminding us to look forward and not back. I can't change what I did during the first half of the year, what's done is done. But I will change what I do during the second half, and that's what matters now.

Martine - Holy crap. Exactly! You put it very succinctly.

yay for new years dresses, thanks for the reminder Jane! we always have Christmas and new years nights out with the girls, I am determined to be rocking something sexy this year! :cheers:

I've been struggling with these thoughts all year. I keep sabotaging myself, but I know I can get it together.. I just have to focus! I just want to get below where I have been stuck at so long now.. We can do this. 6 months is plenty of time!

Big thumbs up. Thanks for the reminder. :-)

I so needed this pep talk- thank you!! I am going to Europe for the week between Christmas and New Years, so it would be fantastic....no...wait...IT WILL BE FANTASTIC to be down 40-50 pounds and looking trimmer in cute winter clothes in fabulous locations! I am starting this week (again..for the 50th time).

Well I am fat so I will spend this summer actually losing some pounds instead of just dreaming about it ~ Same Here, Thats how I feel too

Great reminder! And even if I "only" lose 1 pound a wee, that's 25 pounds gone by New Year's.

Let's do it!
