Indeed I did! Woohoo! I weighed in at 275 today, and I've been on the program for four weeks exactly--how perfect was THAT timing? LOL

I'm a weenie though--I made my next goal smaller! LOL I need a tangible reward more than once a month, and when I hit a goal, I do something nice for myself, get it? this means I need to hit more goals, so I made them smaller!

There are lots of things you stop doing when you get very overweight AND very involved in raising children, so my rewards are all about bringing back some things that are nice for mommy--pedicures, a new haircut, some new perfume I've wanted to try, etc.
I used to pamper myself regularly but slowly, over the pounds (er, I mean YEARS--LOL) I just STOPPED messing with it. No more!

Now to decide what I'm going to do for my new 22-pound-lighter-self tomorrow! Hmmmm...

Oh, Susanna ~

Yeah! We celebrate with you and raise a shaker jar to your success!

Sweet Dreams...let us know about that reward - the bestest reward ever is just knowing that you are doing something to get yourself healthier - you will be able to do more with your kids and family very soon!

Yeah!!

You're onto somethng setting those small goals, so enjoy success as often as you want! You've earned some great little treats for yourself by making the right choices. Four weeks and 22 pounds is proof that you can do the whole thing, stride by stride. The energy of accomplishing that will keep providing "more speed ahead", too. Nobody wants to abandon something that works for something that doesn't, so keep hangin' in!

Why thank you everyone!
I'm still on cloud nine today! In reality, I'm still grossly overweight, but for whatever reason, it isn't bothering me today--LOL--today I'm celebrating victory and the scale moving DOWNWARD unlike the decidedly upward path it has been taking for the past few years.

I'm very excited about the next goal!

Thanks everyone! this forum is a big part of me staying on the wagon--you all are wonderful!
