Hit a major milestone this morning: I've officially lost 100 pounds since I
started this journey more than a year ago. Only 8 more pounds to go before I
reach my goal!

To anyone just beginning a new way of eating and way of life in the hopes of
becoming healthier (and thinner), I can assure you that I am living proof
that "slow and steady" really does work. All the tiny incremental losses
really do add up to big losses if you just keep plugging away at it. Most
weeks I lost one or two pounds, a few weeks I lost more, many weeks I lost
less (or none at all) and a few times actually re-gained a little bit...but
overall it added up to a lot.

Today is a very good day! :-)

Jane,

Congrats. I just reached a 50 lb. milestone myself. And agreed, it's a
slow process.

I only step on the scale once a week. No point in getting upset on a
daily basis.

You've almost lost 1/2 of you. Good job!

All the best,

Andy

Wonderful Jane. Now the real work begins--keeping it off.

Thanks, Andy. I figure that I've finally lost that spare person that my
husband wasn't legally married to! ;-)

And congratulations right back at you! You've made some pretty good progress
yourself. That's great! :-)

I only weight myself once per week, too. There are so many fluctuations with
daily weigh-ins...it would make me crazy (as if I needed the extra push!).

I agree, Diva. The closer I've gotten to goal, the more crystal clear it's
become that *losing* it is one thing and *keeping it off* is another thing
altogether.

I've recently started using a nutritional scale which has been very helpful
(and illuminating: I was pretty surprised to learn how much I was
underestimating portion size and caloric content with some foods).

Guess being ever vigilant is a key to long-term success.
