It was slow, but it happened.
I finally hit my goal this weekend. It took a year and a half! I had really plateaued at the one-year mark and would drop a couple, gain a couple--always staying about the same. I thought that I had maxed out and was pretty much okay with it. I figured the last 7 lbs. was mine to keep. About a month ago I decided that it was ridiculous being this close, and kicked it up a notch. I cut back more on the calories and was really careful about what I ate, and I took the exercise up 2 notches. Of course, now I have revised my goal and want to lose another 12 lbs.--I want the 100. Wish me luck!
Woo Hoo Jayne!!!!
What a great accomplishment!!!
You stuck with it and saw it through. That's so awesome! It's a reminder to me that good things come to those who wait, however.....why wait???
