Ok - I am a little late here. :-)

I hit my goal about 1.5 months ago. I have actually gone down about another 2 lbs since. In all I have lost 108 lbs.

What has helped me was consistency. (I actually had a cheat day on Sat..the first one in a VERY long time.) The other trick for me has been to always have food ready in the fridge. I cook in bulk and always have leftovers. Then when I need something it is there. The other key for me has been this forum. While I am more of a lurker...I visit here almost everyday. While in the beginning and up to goal it was everyday...lately I have been too busy...we are selling our home and I had to get it ready. :-) One other thing that helped me was Dr. Phil's diet book. I used it more for the psychological issues of weight loss. I came to think that I loved myself enough to do this...and I would not allow people to sabotage me.

Anyway, it CAN be done.
