I did not record my food entry for yesterday - am just going to write it (WOE) off as a total disaster. The rest of the day was very nice. We had fireworks in our back yard and ended up with 5 Grandkids spending the night.
Warning - The following will be very boring, but have to plan this out and that is what my journal is for. After all - it is Independence Day and I am declaring Independence from being overweight!
My new Mini Goals will be 10 lbs at a time. My next celebration will be at 158. Since I am now wearing "the larger" size 12's, losing 10 more should translate into "the smaller" 12's. I feel it is realistic to expect to reach this goal by November so I can get rid of any 14's that may be lurking in my closet.
As for next winter, I am not going to be foolhardy enough to make any further projections (remembering that month long holiday between Thanksgiving and Christmas) other than I am vowing to stick with this WOE for life! I am thanking you in advance for your help in making this happen.

Sounds very do-able...goal-oriented without being ridiculous. Did your grandkids appreciate your "better" fashion sense? LOL!

Sandy - It was my Stepdaughter who noticed my clothes. But my 13 year old Granddaughter brought her friend with her and she told me I looked too young to be a grandmother. Made my day!

Five grandkids all spending the night. Sounds like a good time (although I am sure a bit hectic.) Your goal sounds very doable. Keep us posted.

Morning Buffy, I think that is a very good goal..I really think losing the weight slowly is the best.. Thats what I am doing cause I have been
in the fast lane before and it all came back..Right now I am happier
with my weight loss than ever before cause I don't stress over it as
much.. Have a wonderful day and keep up the good work your doing....Bren

Very sensible goals.. No one should set goals they going to struggle to achieve. That's setting yourself up to fail. I am sure that 10 pounds will be off before you know it :)
