Default 1/4 of the way there!!!
When I started my journey on April 22nd, 2010 I figured from 260 to 113 that I needed to lose 18.4 pounds, 8 times. Today marks my achievement of my second 18.4. I'm soooooo excited! When I saw 222.8 today I knew I could put down that I had done it. AND...I got the sweetest compliment from one of the surgeons I work with. He asked if I was sick yesterday since he didn't think he saw me...I reminded him of a conversation we had and he remembered I was at work. Then he said...well...you're just getting so small. I said I was working on it and told him of my 1/4 of the way there and he was impressed and let me know what a huge step that is. I must admit it...I'm so proud of me!!!!!!!!!!!! Hope you all are doing well too!

That's awesome!! You should be proud of yourself!!! And breaking it up into chunks does make it easier to stay on target doesn't it?

You are all the best! Thanks and YES...little bits sure has made a big difference for me. Long ago I would think...10 pounds a month and I never hit my goal...5 pounds I hit it and anything more is bonus! This really did give me a lift in my head. Still just smiling and so excited...I really am doing this!

THAT IS GREAT!!!!!!! Good job! A quarter of the way is definitely something to celebrate. Are you gonna reward yourself? I'd be taking myself out bowling or something!
