Delve deep within yourself and take responsibility for your health and behavior. Ask yourself hard questions and face the truth of what needs to be done. Weight loss is not always easy or fair but you are the only one that can lose weight for you. Take a turn for the better!" Goals: 1) Lose ~45 pounds 2) Work out at least 6 days a week 3) Eat healthier consistently I will reward myself at the following weights: 240, 235, 230, 225, 220, 215, 205, 200, 195, 190 I will reassess my goals after I have met the above goals.	# Posted: 20 Dec 2007 13:36 I see some psychological and metabolic issues I fall victim to...I can't wait for the holidays to be over so I can get back to some real weight/fat loss
