Jump on the Goal Train

[purplegirl1818 1]

just passed the 50lb lost mark, only 1lb from my next mini goal (be at 225).

my next major goal is to be sub 200 by Januaray 1st.

then the next is to be in at least a 14 by my graduation (June 1st, and subsiquently my brothers wedding is the next week)

Finally, I have hit onederland! I was in between 203-206 for about a month. How frustrating! Anyhow, I have been swimming a little bit 4 times a week. While this is supposed to be good, I rarely seem to get my heartrate up. So, I am going to starting walking a mile before I swim to see if this helps. I would love to be 175 by xmas. However, that might be stretching it so I would settle for 185.

Timeline:

185 by Xmas

175 by Valentine's Day

165 by Spring Break

155 by End of School

145 by My Bday, June 27

135 by Bandiversary Aug. 7

Does this look feasible? realistic?

20lbs by Christmas is mine too! (225lbs)

We can do it together :clap2:

Since I don't have to worry about shopping much -- I have many bins of clothes saved from my last great weightloss in 2002 and shouldn't need much of anything until I'm well below 250, I've picked travel as my reward!

My first goal is to hit 275. DH and I will take off for a weekend in San Antonio when I hit 275.

After that, we'll pick a destination and start planning for the next trip -- when I hit 250.

So, my goal is to make it to SA before Halloween!

Okay..I didn't make THAT goal by Halloween, but I DID reach it by Thanksgiving Day! And we're going to East Texas to see some friends and relatives instead of San Antonio -- just trying to figure out if we can squeeze it in before Christmas or wait until after.

My next goal is 250 by Valentine's Day. It'll be a stretch, but I'm determined!

That's O.K. Nana! I didn't make my 275 goal for Thanksgiving but I'm just 2 pounds away and I will do it! My next goal is for my 47th B-day whcih is 12/8 but since I accept presents through 12/20 I plan to make 270 by then! 250 by 3/1!

Okay, we're close in age and our past and present numbers are real similar, but I'm guessing by your goal weight you must be taller than me.

Funny -- when I look at your numbers I think "You're doing great!" but I'm so hard on MYSELF!!! Isn't it just DUMB how we talk down to our OWNselves?

Hi,

Our exercise thread has really helped motivate me, and I am sure that this thread will do the same -- so here goes.....

My short-term goal is to lose fifteen pounds by Christmas. I set that goal a few days ago and have since lost two pounds.

Thirteen pounds in slightly less than four weeks is a bit of a push, but I believe I can do this.

Good luck to everyone trying to reach their short-term goals, and congratulations to those who have already done so :clap2::clap2::clap2:!

I am 5'6". My goal should probably be less but I can't see further than 200 right now! This first 40 is still hard to beleive for me!

Ah...gotcha!

I can't wrap my head around the concept of ONEDERLAND yet EITHER! Haven't been there in 19 years!

But that ain't gonna stop me from speeding in that direction!!
