I am in the 4th week of the weight watchers plan, and feel good about the fact that I have lost 10% (7lbs) of what I need to lose (70 lbs). But also feeling a bit hungry after my low-fat lunch and trying to say points for a dinner out with friends tonight. So ... as I'm sipping my water, I have started to daydream about what things might be like a year from now. If I stay on track with this program, then in one year from now: I will be shopping for clothes in the regular department instead of the plus size department. I will be able to stand up and look down and see my feet. My joints will ache less because they will have less weight to support. My lower back will ache less because it no longer has all that belly weight out in front to support. I will only have one chin. My feet will ache less. My blood sugar will once again be in normal ranges. My g/f will be able to get her arms all the way around me. My sex life will be better. I will have more confidence and self-esteem. I will have greater stamina. I will not tape things over my mirrors to avoid inadvertent glances (lol). I will be proud of myself and my accomplishments! At 44 years old, I am amazed at how each year goes faster and faster. A year is hardly any time at all. But what a difference a year can make! Would love to from those of you who have already reached your goals ... maybe there are more benefits to look forward to? Would also love to hear from those of you just starting out like me. What would thinks look like to you in a year from now? Best wishes to all, - Joan

Great job on the loss youve had so far!! Feels great huh? I know I loved it when I got to my 10%! Weird to think about how much a year can do! Good luck on your road for weight loss!! KEEP US POSTED!! -Veronica

Those are all really good goals. I have lost about 70 pounds so far. The double chin is gone and that feels great, but one of the things that is different is how people treat me. Everyone walks up to me like they're genuinely proud of my weight loss. It really helps me feel good.

Hi ya all... About this time next year me, hubby and our 2 boys are going to Fiji for a holiday to soak up some sun and get away from the rainy winter here!. I'd really love to be able to run around the beautiful beaches in my swimsuit without feeling self-conscious and enjoy it :) I'd like to be fitter and have more energy. I'd like to no longer hear comments about my widening rear, haha! and most importantly I'd like to know I've done myself a good turn by looking after myself...afterall we have our bodies for along time on this earth :) 'You're unable to sail successfully in a rusty broken down ship'

I want to be a movie star!

Those sound like some really good goals, Goosey! That's definitely one dream that could come true!

Keep it up you guys!
