I'm with you on it feeling impossible to lose so much. I also set my goal higher than I'd prefer to be. Personally, I want to get down between 120-130, however, I've been 147 before, so somehow that makes it seem more attainable. I started at 242 with the higher goal of 147, giving me 95 pounds to lose. After 3 weeks I'm 21% of the way there. That makes it seem far less impossible... but wow. When I first started I was so scared... like, "Oh my goodness... How am I going to do this for so long?!" Less scared now.

So if it starts feeling impossible feel free to drop by my journal for a chat. I completely understand how you feel. Also, congrats on your loss so far! That's so great!
