I just can't eat a lot of crap, or drink too much beer, not really a hardship in my life. And I need to exercise, which I need to do anyway. But, OTOH, this is sustainable for the rest of my life. I've lost almost 24 pounds (in 6 months or so), and have about the same left to go. OK, maybe it's been going faster, it seems like the number on the scale didn't move for 2 months, now it's moving slowly. Whatever, it'll get there when it gets there.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14165748.post-65513873492050433612009-01-06T11:31:00.000-07:002009-01-06T11:31:00.000-07:00Yep, thats doable and realistic.

Then I'd be at my goal weight. That's definitely doable and I might be able to keep it off if I lose it slowly like that. Thanks for the excellent idea.<BR/><BR/>P.S. My little dog, which I show on my own blog, is from Alberta!Gracehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07595663688605330722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14165748.post-12834871325580077512009-01-05T18:33:00.000-07:002009-01-05T18:33:00.000-07:00Nice new template you have here.

I chose a goal of 1.5 Lbs/week since that's what things usually average out to be, when I stay on plan. Some weeks are more, some are less, but usually 1.5 is my magic #! <BR/><BR/>Sooo, good on ya for picking something that can be accomplished. It's great to reach a goal and one like this is attainable and realistic! :)Robynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14977204456552532248noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14165748.post-70430609324080340522009-01-05T11:33:00.000-07:002009-01-05T11:33:00.000-07:00That's a great goal.
