So, today I decided to go back and look at all my posts since I started my journey (a little over 4 months ago... can't believe it.) Although I have only lost about 10 pounds since then, going back and reading through my progress has given me an awesome source of inspiration to keep going! When I started out, I thought there was no way in the world that I could lose 5 pounds in a healthy way, much less 10... but I have! And I know I can keep it up!

I know this is kind of a random and frivolous thread, but I was just so excited because the realization finally hit me. If you need some inspiration, I'd recommend going back and reading your old stuff because you'll be amazed at how your outlook and habits have changed. Be proud! Thanks so much to of you for helping me get through my first 10!

i know how you feel!

i've plateaued and just CANT get into the 180's.. and last year i was 185 after losing 10lbs doing Nutrisystem for 2 months... but then my mom's one year memorial came up, and so i started stressing out and eating again.. and i gained weight.. and although i've only lost just over 10lbs in 2ish months, i just keep thinkign to myself: at least you're 10lbs lighter than 2 months ago! and it frustrates me when i plateau, but at least my body is maintaining it and not gaining!!
