Default Small milestone acheived!

I just wanted to share the good news! I hit a first milestone this week: I have lost 25 lbs!! For me this is a big deal. I went out and bought myself some new jeans and t-shirts to celebrate. I am down one size in both jeans and tops! I lurk here more than I contribute, but I feel everyone here was helping me even though they didn't know it. Thanks everyone
Next milestone: losing enough so I can say I have less than 100 lbs to lose (this is in 15 lbs.)

Congrats!!!!

I treat myself to something small for each 10 pound mark (I'm getting my hair highlighted when I hit 210 lol)- i think you need to celebrate every mile marker and then move on to the next one!

Congratulations!!!! 25 lbs is not a small milestone, but a rather large one. Next time you go to the grocery store, pick up a frozen turkey... you just lost a turkey!!!!

I 'celebrate' every 20 lbs by giving myself a special treat. First 20 was a pedicure and the second 20 hasn't been decided yet.
