Small progress excitement

Anyone else get super excited with small progress?

For example:

I started at 279... I got so happy when I hit the 260s.. Again and the 250s.. And now that I hit the 240s... I'm like dancing around the house..

I personally feel that there's no progress that's too small.. But there's so many threads here where people are complaining that they only lost 30lbs..

30lbs is the same weight as a 2 year old!!!

that's not small its huge good job... I do the happy dance every 5 lbs in the beginning now its every 10 lbs goals are important so keep dancing.

I feel the same way. I started at 332 and am now 280. I jumped for joy when I left the 300's and then the 290's. I am super close to the 270's and can't wait until I am there! For now I can't even imagine the 260's!!

It's refreshing to hear! You obviously realize that it's not a quick fix! I think a lot of people say they don't expect it to be, but by their posts i think they might be fibbing! Your enjoying the process and don't have unrealistic expectations! That is definitely a sign of someone that is going to be successful! Congratulations on your current success and continued success!

I feel the same way!!! Each and every pound is a milestone no matter how fast or slow! I have lost 18 and I am feeling great!!!

I think people confuse the band as being a miracle quick fix weight loss device instead of a life style change tool
