Mini-goals are awesome (especially when you reach them, hehe)! You get a continual sense of achievement and progress by focusing on what is and has happened rather than how much further there is to go.

Congratulations!

Way to go! Great job on reaching your first goal early!

Thank you, thank you, thank you.. gawd I love the support and warmth of this place!

I agree with you whole heartedly Mummy Tummy.. small goals. It's the only way I can do this. If I think.. OMG there's over 100 to go, well, it's discouraging, but I can lose 10 pounds a bunch of times!!

Got up this morning only to find that I'm down another 2.. WOOT? How did that happen?!?! *laugh*.. finally.. finally.. it's happening for me :)

I feel it all over my body, I have been sleeping better, I've been exercising. I don't know what finally "snapped" inside, but I'm so glad it did!

Congrats on your mini goal!!! :encore:

now... if I can just meet my mini goal, that would be great.. Im thinking I might be 2lbs short of making it, but thats ok.

That's how I do it too! And I redecorate my ticker every time I start a new ten pound goal. :)

I am so glad you are on your way! Stick around!!!

El, you sound so happy about yourself! That's a whole 'nother NSV right there! Congratulations on the now 12 pound loss...

(play that funky music) :dancer: (and... boogie!)
