When I think of the massive amount of weight I have to lose I usually find myself in floods of tears... like Sue said... small goals are best, whether it's weight, or getting to the next dress size down. Either way, you're overall target does not seem so daunting when broken into smaller pieces. WeMITTS has a Xmas challenge (if you haven't joined already) so why not join us in setting yourself an Xmas goal?
I think its helpful not to focus too much on your weight and look at other benefits, which being slimmer, fitter and healthier bring. I've been dieting on and off for 8 months and have lost about 2 stone (I don't have an official start weight cos I wouldn't get on the scales) and already I feel slightly healthier, I don't huff and puff as much and my clothes fit better and I know there are more good feelings like that to come.
Failing all that, we lovely people here on Minimins are always happy to give a little encouragement and support.
Well done on your first stone loss and good luck on the rest of your journey.
