What is a pound?
I jumped on the scale a day early this week...121...the lowest number I have seen in years, a pound lower then my last weigh in, but still 1 pound away from goal!!! ARGGGGHHH... I am happy to be this close but I can't help but wonder what the significance of this 1 pound is. Seriously I will never be an even 120 for an extended period of time, so why is seeing that number so darn important to me?? I played around with the word success this morning, but I see my weight loss as a success whether I am 121 or 120. I won't fit into a size smaller jean, it won't make me suddenly want to run around naked, so what is 1 lb? When do I move from weight loss mode to maintenance?

You are awesome - even though a pound isn't a big deal it still feels good to know that you have accomplished your goals!
By the way - your 7 list made me sad. How sad for your mom that she didn't absolutely adore you - you are an incredible person and I am so much better off having gotten to know you!
Thanks and how is the wedding coming along???
WOW!!! You are SO CLOSE!!! I understand what you mean about that pound. You wonder if the heavens will open and the angels will rejoice or what will happen. Just knowing you set a goal and accomplished it--that's something to be VERY proud of!!! OWN that accomplishment!
I am 2 pounds away and totally understand your frustration. What is so magic about that number anyway....hmmm
You are so incredibly close. I think the number is proof of meeting yoru goal. You accomplished what you set out to do. Even if you fluctuate up or down daily seeing that magical number will mean that YOU DIT IT! I totally know how you fell. It's a mental thing IMO along with so many other things related to weight loss.
WOW girl... just one pound away. I must confess I may have uttered "skinny beotch" under my breath but wow, you are awesome and inspiring. I hope I can do it too!
