This is my goal...what is yours?

[Guest guest]

Today I found the cutest denim skirt! I tried it on in size fourteen and it is

snug but doable. And then since I will to wear this skirt WHEN (not if) I am

successful with IOWL, I went back and bought the skirt in size 12 and size 10.

(I have been successful with losing sizes like this before...this time I will

keep it off because there is an underlying fundamental change in my belief

system.) Anyhow, I just wanted to share with you all that my goal is to have a

nice waist. I don't hop up and down on the scale anymore, as it has always just

become my obsession and a trigger to stress eat if I didn't lose what I thought

I 'deserved'. Now, just to have a proper sized waist like Dr. Oz says. That

means I have to lose five inches. I can do it! (And I know I will because my

daughter is getting married in October and I have a certain dress in mind.

Before then I expect to be where I want to be with my body, and I will be

practicing maintainence.) So that is my goal...what is yours?

I also had issues with weighing myself, so I gave the scale to

Goodwill. I have struggled with eating issues my whole life, so my

goal is to have a normal relationship with good in which I naturally

eat mainly when I'm hungry and usually stop when I'm not. That would

just be so cool!

Hey Lori - love that motivation! and you're right, you can do it! I love the

tape measure myself (it generally shows progress that the scale doesn't)

my goal is match the weight on my drivers license when I get it renewed in

August ... that's 8 lbs a month between now and then ... and yes, I too, can do

it!!

woo hoo!!
