Last leg toward the 2010 finish line

Well this is it. I've got 6 weeks to go before the date I set to meet my weight loss goal for 2010. When I set off on this journey, I wasn't sure what I could accomplish or what would be a realistic goal. A few months in, I decided to strive for a 50 lbs weight loss by Christmas. That is my goal for 2010 (I hope to lose another 30 lbs in 2011).
With 6 weeks to go, I have 12.8 lbs to lose. I can do this. It just means that I need to be focused and eat well and exercise. I've got just over 2 lbs to lose each week during Christmas party season. I'm pretty sure I can do this. I went to an event last night with wait staff offering puff pastry this and phyllo that for nearly 5 hours straight. On top of that, the bar was right next to my table! My food and drink tally for the night: 1 goat cheese and puff pasty bite (about 1" in diametre), 2 mini quesadilla wedges (each no wider than 1-1/2") and a glass of Perrier with lemon. Hey, if that's not a success, I don't know what is. :)
But that's one day, and I have many more of those between now and December 24th. I need to keep that positive energy going so that this final leg of my 2010 journey leads to achieving my goal!
Go Lynnery! Go!
