What was that happy dance in the bathroom yesterday morning? Oh yes, that's it--it was me realizing I have now lost 20 pounds!
So I've reached my first major goal. What should my reward be? Hmmm.
By the way, 20 pounds down now means 40 pounds down from my highest weight. Woo-hoo! Pretty soon I'll be in the magical 170's, a land I have not visited in a vast number of years.

What happens when you catch veggies (and some fruits and grains) uncloaked by cream? Unsmothered by butter?
This is one woman's diary of a journey to good health.

Congratulations :)
CONGRATULATIONS!!!!! 20 pounds is quite a milestone indeed. You should be very very proud of yourself. I know that I'm proud of you. :)
WoooHOoOoooooOOOo!! :D 20lbs is AWESOMEEEEEEEEE!
Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaay! Congratulations!
As for rewards - I'm of the firm belief it should be something indulgent, rather than practical. But of course, that's just me ;-) Some people prefer their goal to be weight loss and/or fitness orientated, but I believe that those things are more useful in getting you to goals, rather than being the end reward of a goal that would've been achieved faster if you had the stuff to begin with!
I digress. CONGRATULATIONS!
Wow! Congratulations! *high five* Thanks for the comment the other day, too. :)
