What Mini Goal is motivating you right now!

debisjazz

My current Mini goal is to run 5k with minimal breaks (a few steps every km).
Last night I ran 4.2k, getting so close!!!

I have minigoals, but I don't even know how to reward myself for these... I have everything I could wish for The reward itself is having lost the pounds. So here are the minigoals for now:

-I want to reach 162lb for my trip to Brittany (currently at 168) in November.
-I want to be able to climb that hill I used to climb 2-3x a week before my injury (injury that caused the weight gain, must I mention) before the end of the season.
-Run again, for fun. I've raced for so many years, I'm done.

2 years ago, I bought a FitBit to start losing weight.... after which I gained almost 40 pounds.

Sept 11, 2015 I logged in at 229.5.
I hit 230.8 today.

My goal is to hit 229.5 by Sept 11, 2017, and "erase" the last two years.

Admit it.
We're all a little motivated by our upcoming Halloween costumes.

Haha! 100% has been on my mind lately!

Also, 3 weeks until I'm in my first wedding as a bridesmaid, followed by my first time as a maid of honor literally 3 weekends later. I've let this summer get away from me a bit, but have been on top of things the last two days and plan to continue with those events as motivation! 3.5 pounds and I'll be back where I was at the lowest a month or two ago, I just want to pass that number up!

Mini Goal: 225lbs. It's twoish pounds off. I'm almost there. I won't ever admit to anyone in person, but I believe my highest weight was 250. I never weighed myself when I was that large, but I was already loosely watching my food intake for a couple of months before I was weighed at a doctor's visit and saw 242.6 on the scale.

Regardless, 225lbs would be a nice number to reach. I'd have lost 15lbs!

1. Reach 225lbs
2. Reach 220lbs
3. 12 weeks of CICO - (this is when they say you will notice changes!)
4. Reach 216lbs (10% of body weight lost)

Not gain anything this week. It's my birthday so cake and food will be a thing but hoping to get right back on track after.

And I am proud to say that not only there was no gain, I also actually lost weight. The days after my birthday I've been super motivated to get rid of the extra c I had. I'm going on a trip the 23 of September and I'm hoping to be in the 80' kilos by then. I have 1.7 kilo to go before that. Also since that is about 5 kilos down from the last time I went through my closet, by then I'm going to go through the next bag of clothes that where to small for me, but hopefully will fit me then

My bday is September 23rd. I have been working out every day 2x-3x a day and each meal is 300 cals. I want to lose 20lbs but realistically I can probably do 15lbs. My SW was 252 and my CW is 227. I still have a long way to go but I want to look good on my bday

only 1 pound left to hit my big, seemingly impossible goal of 220
only 1.6 pounds to go until I hit 100 pounds lost (why couldn't i have started MFP with a nice round number? lol)

AND THEN... new goals? I have some ideas but I'll post them here once I get there.

Hit my MFP goal of 220! Was surprised that there were no celebratory messages from MFP for meeting my goal... I didn't even get one of those images that come up when you hit a milestone. It was like just another weigh-in!

Have .6 until 100 lbs lost (and then I'm sure i'll get an image to share, lol). Also I made a new official goal of 200! I am splitting it up into 5 lb mini goals

Congratulations! Definitely beyond a mini-goal! I was reading your profile and I'm so inspired by your running!

Mini goal: get under 210!
SW: 226
CW: 214
First GW: 178 (In past weight loss, something magical happens around this weight and I start to feel thin.)

scoobytaylor1

Mini goal of 5 more pounds lost. I really want to finally get under 200, SW 230. So far have lost 25 pounds as of today since June 22.

I have 2:

1. I'm about 10lbs away from being <200lbs (would be 40lbs lost) for the first time in a long time. I hope to get there before I go away in December.
2. Started going to the gym regularly for the first time ever (admittedly it's only been 1.5 weeks, but I've already broken previous records). I want to keep it up and sort it out.

I'm getting bored with my meal planning food and therefore not overeating in calories but eating junk. So I've hit a plateau and haven't been motivated. I've been 10 lbs from 200 for two weeks and over the weekend I went up 2lbs so that was kind of a kick in the butt.

Setting my sights on drinking A LOT of water this week and trying mix it up in the kitchen with Caribbean Jerk spiced chicken, pineapple salsa, and beans. I think my plateau is starting to stem from low-calorie intake so I might up my calories to 1500.

I reached my goal weight today but I want to lose 3 more pounds just so I can officially say I lost 50 pounds

I have started this so many times and am so discouraged. I do not like to exercise nor do I have time. My goal is to lose weight and get healthy reasonably. I do a lot of physical work keeping up with the house.
My mini goals are not to exceed normal xarb allotment and to drink 5 glasses of water every day.

I'm with the "get under 200 #" folks... been over 200 since my daughter was in kindergarten/1st grade. Promised myself all throughout her childhood I would lose this weight, and here we are and she's a senior and I'm still taking 1 step forward/2 steps back each year. Enough is enough, I've got to do this now or I feel like I never will. I want to feel like my inside and outside somewhat "match" again, ya know?

To fit into the damn clothes I have hanging in my closet with tags on! Oh it's happening! My *kitten* will fit!

That goal is TWO POUNDS A DAY. Please be safe.

My mini goal is 0.8 pounds. This puts me in a new 'decade' (220's). I hit 229.8 5 days ago and haven't seen it since. I'll get there!

My parents house has a lot of mirrors. I want to lose enough that I can tell I've changed when I visit them for Christmas. It's 14 weeks away, so I also want to weigh around 180 lbs, which is about a lb a week of loss.
Also, I want to complete the C25K program by then.

My 60th birthday is in December. I don't want to be both old and in the obese category. Can't do anything about the old but my goal is to lose 20 pounds by my birthday, will get me closer to just plain overweight on the grid.
That is a big goal- my mini goal is 3-4 pounds every two weeks. I am rewarding myself with something small - makeup or something-for every 3 pounds. I am buying forward and putting a little sticker on the item with the weight I need to be at to earn it. I am only a few weeks into it but it is working!

On October 1 when I participate in a cancer research fundraising swim I want to wear the black speedo racerback swimsuit I bought a size too small. I'm close, but not quite able to wear it now.
