Some of these may seem silly to other people (like being able to boost myself out of the pool without using a ladder), but they give me a way to acknowledge my successes.
Getting heavy didn't happen all at once. I didn't eat one wrong thing and suddenly gain 50 pounds. It was years of minor failures. I'm looking at losing the weight the same way -- in reverse -- and I'll take whatever little victories I can get. Milestones? Heck, I'll take inchstones. I want to pat myself on the back and celebrate every tiny little step in the right direction -- because all those tiny little steps add up.
