Another new one here...
I'm a 35 year old woman with about 100 pounds to lose.
I've been slowly working at it for about a month now, and I've lost 18 pounds to date. :jump:

While I'm proud of myself for this achievement, I know myself - this is the point where I always give up. I know there is something I'm afraid of beyond that 20 pound mark, and my biggest challenge right now is to find out what that is and overcome it!

So, I figure if I get talking about it, and reach out for some support, it can only be a help to me! I'm looking forward to meeting everyone here with similar goals as mine, and hope we can work together, help one another and finally get there!
 
Nice to meet ya! Gratz on your loss so far!

I'm not sure what the solution might be. Obviously what you are doing now, works and the answer would be to keep doing it, but not get bored. Maybe instead of making the next goal another 20lbs, which could seem like alot of work (again), maybe shoot for a 5 or 10lbs mark instead?
 
Thanks for the welcome :)

Goal setting isn't my issue. I've been setting goals for a pound at a time, actually. I step on the scale, see a lower number, congratulate myself and start thinking of the next pound!

My real issue is in my head...psychological/emotional. I hide behind my weight, and I'm afraid to lose that shield. I really don't know why...lots of soul-searching to do!
