Hello! My name is Brittany, and I am the writer behind the :Deliciously Healthy Blog. Since Jan-2010, I have lost 40lbs! I started my weight loss journey, because I have a number of health issues, and I decided that I needed to take my health into my own hands. I was diagnosed with Lupus when I was 15, and then diagnosed with RA, when I was 18. A couple years later I was diagnosed with Poly Cystic Ovarian Syndrome, and low thyroid. That's 4 diagnoses in a 4yr period, if you lost count. I had also gained 76 pounds, in those 4 years. Being 76lbs over weight is unhealthy for anyone, but it was especially unhealthy for me, and my health issues. But now, after having lost 40 pounds, I'm a new, slimmer, and healthier me! This journey of mine is more than me simply wanting to wear skinny jeans. It has been a quest to becoming :Deliciously Healthy, so ALL of my dreams can come true! I'm almost half way there! With each new day, I get closer and closer to my goal of 120lbs, and becoming :Deliciously Healthy

Brittany, congratulations on the weight loss- very impressive. And for sharing the great point about procrastinating.
I agree- small, reachable goals done week by week allow us to adjust the plan if needed and begin to see results that motivate us to keep at it.
You mention another good idea: writing down the resolutions/goals and keeping them where you can see them. I know one person who posts hers on her refrigerator, along with a picture of her former, slimmer self. It's working for her!
Brittany, I love this idea of mini goals along the path. I completely agree with you about procrastinating. I cannot count how many times I have said "well its just this one time, I have X number of months left." Great ideas. I can't wait to try them! Happy New Year!
