What Mini Goal is motivating you right now!

My health is number one, the rest is that I have always been stocky and not close to obese at 28%. I want to bulk up on some muscle and then calorie cut to show the muscles. I have never had any definition of muscle. I will be 50 in 18 months, so yeah no time to wait.

Not gaining 20 pounds over the holidays! I'm a cookie baker, and it is HARD! After all, you can't gift cookies unless you've tasted them, made sure they're up to par. Yep, that's my story and I'm stickin' to it!

5 lb gone before Christmas. That would be just over 2% and a nice start. So based on my weight yesterday (because I forgot to weigh myself this morning), goal weight is 237.8 by 12/25

this morning, I was 239.8. So 2 lbs to go in less than a week, probably not a thing. But I still broke a zero I'm still counting it. And because I'm now traveling it will be see if anymore can come off by the 23rd.

edit. I must have either done bad math or gained after posting that mini goal. Because it was definitely down 4lb this morning. So sticking with the 5 lb plan, because not undoable.

I am now in the overweight category instead of obese! My next mini goal is to maintain over the holidays and then lose 5 pounds over January and February and March to bring me to 153lbs. I'm losing slowly but I'm not gaining the weight back so it's working well for me. My ultimate goal is to be 130lbs. I'll get there in due time.

THIS! I am 5 pounds out from being in the Overweight category...although by one chart it is only 4 pounds. 🤣 According to MFP...and I am doing everything I'm supposed to be doing....even over Christmas....it should take one month. I will report back when I've made it.

I'm working out my emotions instead of eating them.

Note to self - work them out, don't eat them.

My immediate mini goal is to be able to do at least 5 proper pushups and at least 1 burpee. Getting out of the 190s will be a bonus.

So far I have lost 54 pounds since April 2022. My mini goal right now is losing another 15 pounds to finally get to a “normal” weight on the BMI scale.

Reading through this is inspiring! My goal is to drink a lot of water to keep myself full and only enjoy the treats that are worth it over the holidays. I also plan to still hit the gym and get outside for walks as much as possible. Being able to look forward to enjoying treats with my family keeps me from eating the tons of junk at work that will just leave me feeling unfulfilled and like crap about myself. Happy Holidays to everyone!

Getting to where I'm overweight and not obese on the BMI scale. And I hit it yesterday! BMI now 29.8, down from 36.1.

How long has it been since you've eaten them?? I went for a year without carbs and when I started adding them back in I got such body aches & pains.... good luck to you.

Today I weighed in at 149.4. Made my goal of losing 15 lbs by my birthday...so original mini goal met. However in the meantime I learned that I have shrunk 1.5 inches in height...therefore I need to lose a little more to reach my healthy BMI of under 25. That's okay. I have confidence that I'll make it, just not by my 70th birthday. So I'm making that my next mini goal. I need to be under 143.5 reach that healthy BMI. I hope to be there by Thanksgiving.

Today I weighed in at 143.0. I have finally reached a healthy BMI of 24.9. Missed the Thanksgiving goal by a week but that's okay.

My new mini-goal is to reach 140 lbs. This is significant to me because it means I will have lost 100 lbs, down from 240 on Aug 1, 2021. Hope to be there by January 1, 2023.

I reached my 100 lb weight loss goal! Today's weigh-in was 139.2. Glad it happened before Christmas because, honestly I think I'll be up a bit next week. Lol.

Pdc654

Hitting the 100 lb weight loss goal was a big one for me. I'm now going to break down my goals into 5 lb increments. I think I have between 10-15 lbs to go but just not sure where I'll finally end up. A 22 BMI seems like a good goal to reach for. That would be 126 lbs. I have not been at that weight since my mid-twentys, like 45 years ago so we'll see.

I'm currently at 139.2 lbs. My next mini-goal is 135. Going to aim for that by Feb 3rd, which is 6 weeks from today.

Mini goal—dry January and much less sugar January!

My mini goal for January is to drink more water. I've really fallen behind on this. I also want to drop the 6 lbs I gained over Christmas.

I have to keep my mindset clear and focused. I will continue to be my own health advocate and get the answers/solutions that I need. Giving up is NOT the solution. I need to mind myself...a solution(s) is out there. I just haven't found it yet!

My mini goal for now is to lose 4.3 lbs by January 17th. I will turn 71 then, and believe I can do it.

My "Mini-Goal" is to get under 200 pounds for the 1st time in decades. This is the year I finally have my mindset, and I'm hitting one short-term goal at a time.

quriousmax

This week's mini-goal = logging food every day.
This month's mini-goal = lose 5lbs

BayBlue22

Next mini goal - get under 200

BayBlue22

Ironically, after over a month of trying (and posting this yesterday, I hit my under 200 goal this morning! Next mini goal will be either a 40 inch waist or reach a bmi under 30 (which is about 188 pounds for me ) which ever comes first !

willowma

Leaving for my first vacation in 3 years on Jan 29. My goal is to get in 3-4 workouts per week and be mindful of what I'm putting in my body, no deep fried foods, refined sugars or alcohol until then so I can feel my best when I hit the beach
