Awhile back my goal was 204 and I would have been very happy had I gotten there and stayed there the rest of my life. But I blew past it into Onederland somehow. At some point I got real brave and revised my goal down to 125 which seemed CRAZY. But just now I noticed I am 67% of the way to my crazy, totally out there, never reach it in a million years goal. It seems so much more feasible now, like it may even happen next year.

2/3 of the way!

I've been following your story from way back when...

You are a force to be reckoned with

When I reach my goal of 179, I too hope to revise my goal to a totally crazy out there new goal. You inspire me!

Well done, Janine - you deserve to feel very proud at your achievement. success tastes all the sweeter when you have to strive for it. Let's hope that this coming year sees lots more progress - in the healing process plus further weight loss.

Well done Janine! I knew you could do it!

Julie

Well DONE! You are an inspiration to those of us struggling along pound by measly little pound.

May 2009 be your best year yet!

WOO HOO!!
Blazing a new path....you go girl!!!

Congratulations! I know what you mean. Last June my doctor said I should weigh 140, I told him I never weighed less than 155. In fact I weighed 155 on my wedding day when I was 19. Well, now I am pushing 48 and am 14 pounds from my original goal of 150. I am starting to wonder if the Dr. was right with the 140. If I make it to my 150 goal I may put down a crazy goal of 135!

You should be so proud of yourself. I know how much work, willpower and commitment it has taken and you are awesome!!!!

You have been a inspiration to me since I've started coming here... and to see you blow right past onderland like that is such an accomplishment! Keep on keeping on (and I know you will), because people like me are quietly watching and marveling at your progress!

I started off with my 'crazy' weight goal, sort of laughing and thinking "no way, but what the heck"... well, I'm hardly close to that number, but watching you and a few others, I know it can be done!

You should be so proud of yourself!!!

Thanks, guys - it really is pound by pound! Making it fit into our lives is the biggest struggle - I mean, who thje heck has time for this. All of you make it easy by being so interesting and thoughtful.

Congratulations to you.
