If you want to succeed, you cannot quit! AND magic numbers

220 - how much I thought I was when I got weighed back in March. Found out I was 35 more....Yuck!

199 - onederland!

Every new tens in the one hundreds - each one seems like such a new chapter

150 - 100 lost!

120 - weight when I got married - not sure I'll make it to this again and that's ok


From a blog I read....

As my weight loss buddy Ken is fond of saying, "Small Changes Over Time = Results." He is so right! And he knows what he is talking about. Ken used to weigh 293 pounds. He was determined to lose weight, and started in on his plan. A month went by of him staying on plan... and he did not lose a single pound!!! Two months, three months... still... he stayed the same weight! How many of us would give up WELL before 3 months?? But Ken, bless his heart, kept right on going. He stuck with it, made his small changes over time, and in month 4, he lost 1 pound. Yeah, that's right, 1 pound!! Would you be pulling your hair out? Would you binge? Where do you think Ken is 21 months later? I will tell you. Because of his small changes, and because he persisted through all that time of non-losing, Ken has lost over 100 pounds and weighs 188 pounds! And do you know what? He did this WITHOUT weight loss surgery, WITHOUT diet pills or gimmicks, and WITHOUT EXERCISE!!! What?? Yes, that's right. He did it without exercise. He has a health issue that prevented him from exercising. He did all of this with small changes, over time. He got results.
