Today I stepped on the scale, and it said 175! It confirmed that I have now lost 35 pounds!

I began making changes in May of this year, and really got serious in July.

Over the course of the last ten weeks, I have averaged a pound a week. I'm just taking a moment to be proud of myself!

It's so easy to get caught up in worrying, and being unhappy with where I am now, and worrying that it's going to take me forever, or I'll never make it, or whatever negative garbage can creep up in my mind.

So today all my self-talk will be about how awesome I am. Hopefully I can keep that up.

Wow!! Congratulations!!!

An average of a pound per week--that's incredible!!! Congratulations!

Feels wonderful, doesn't it? Way to go!

WOO HOO You go girl!!

Christine - that is awesome! Totally know how you feel... it's pretty easy to adjust to your new body size but it's so important to focus on how far you've come! GREAT JOB!

great job, a pound a week is fantastic!

Way to go! 35 is a fantastic number, hope to see it in the next few weeks myself!

Also, it's great that you're having "self talk"!! I couldn't help but laugh because my shrink in Jr High was always talking about "positive internal feedback" and I just rolled my eyes at her! Now I wish I could do a better job doing just that.

Keep it up chick!

congratulations!!..makes you want to keep going, huh?
