I did my first weigh in yesterday. I was nervous to step on the scale, worried that I had only lost 5 pounds (that would have been so discouraging!). Fortunately I lost my targeted weight loss for January. I am down 20 pounds and my waist is 5 inches smaller than it was when I began! I was excited about this. However, upon further thought I am disappointed in myself. I could have done better. The last two weeks of January I faltered on my workouts. Had I stuck to my five days a week of exercise, I could have lost more. I realize that 20 pounds is a lot, but I also realize that I am so big, that 20 pounds is no big deal. I expect February to have another 20 pound loss. This is my goal for this month. I better get to work on it!
Don't be unrealistic, the smaller you get the harder it will be to loose. Congrats!
