First mini-goal!

I have met my mini-goal of weighing 185! c: That’s 20 pounds lost, or 10% of my starting weight totally gone. I can’t believe I haven’t wavered at all so far… I went from having no self control to easting totally healthy and having portion control literally over night. I mentally had to change.. and I did. I’m so proud of myself, it feels great and I hope I continue to progress. I can’t fathom how I’ve done this, I never thought it would ever happen. I thought I’d always be stuck overweight, the big one of the group, always shopping for my clothes in a larger section, but now I know that its only a matter of time until thats all over.

I have 25 more pounds to lose until I’m no longer overweight. Only 25, and I’m not intimidated. I’ll continue to set mental goals and have self control, because I know in the end its worth it. Then from there, who knows. However much I decide to weigh within my range.

This site has helped me greatly, reaing experiences and peoples daily life, and though I’m not an active member of the crowd, I love to obseve from afar. It gives me encouragement that there are so many people trying to better themselves and having so many people be sucessful. I admire you all.
