Goodwill and Good-bye

Over the years, I have written more than my fair share about goal setting, goal achievement, and have bemoaned not hitting the milestones I have set for myself.   This is typically with the personal slate of goals although the economy hasn't been so nice to the professional ones over the past couple of years either.    With 2010 slipping away into the record books, it hit me that next year that looming personal goal of weights to hit by the end of March, June, and September and a final weight on New Year's Eve wasn't going to be on the list for 2011.   It isn't that I don't still have an objective to shed a stone more or so.   It is that I am well formed in my habits at this point.   I think I need to be determined not to backslide but I have kicked the devil in the seat and have found my own personal salvation.  The best feeling I had today was sitting in the Goodwill donation drop-off line and realizing I had the back of the SUV filled with success.   I had about 5 garbage bags of my "fat" clothes ready for new owners.   Good bye fat clothes.  Good bye.....
