So many signs that I'm doing well...
...that it's hard to choose just one. I know I'm succeeding because I'm happier, by the notches on my belt, because I can bend over and pick things up off the floor, because I'm wearing smaller clothes...and so on.

As for the daily reminder...I just always have it first and foremost in my mind that I have consciencely made the decision to lose weight for real and for good. I intend to do everything I can to loose weight and keep it off. It's not like in the past. This time it's about good health and a living a good and honest life rather than a superficial, temprorary fix.

Nothing like a health scare to snap ya back to reality!

Oh, and I confess to chekcing out my progress in the mirror every day. Today I saw contours where there had only been swollen fat blobs just a few months ago.
