Today I begin my journey to happiness and good health! I’m starting the year weighing in at 294.2 lbs. My goal is to lose 120 lbs by the end of the year. I’m an emotional overeater, a binge eater, so I’m hoping to also shed the trauma that leads me to eat my emotions when I’m feeling overwhelmed and anxious. I want to develop healthy ways to work through my emotions, and find compassion for myself, the same way I do for others.
When I have a bad day, I’ll forgive myself. When I eat something unhealthy, I’ll forgive myself.
When I start losing weight, I’ll feel proud. When I reach my goal, I’ll feel grateful.
Wishing everyone a healthy, new start to a wonderful year. If you’re reading this, your alive. Much to be grateful. So many aren’t as lucky.
Much love, Michelle

That's a big goal. Still, 10 lbs a month is doable. Pick a healthy way of eating and find some activities you enjoy and you can crush this. You're already winning.

It’s possible but definitely a hard goal. I lost 103 lbs last year. Some months there is going to be less weight loss even when you do everything right. I didn’t cheat and I exercised regularly. I would suggest weighing only monthly, that way you can focus on the changes you need to be making and not obsessing on the scale daily. Little scale fluctuations can make you play mind games with yourself and it was way better for me to see the larger drop on a monthly basis. Once I get to maintenance I’ll move to weekly but not til then.

That sounds like a really big goal. Life is not always happy, even when one is thin. Happy is from what "happens" to one. I want every good thing for you. Happy New Year.
