My mini goals for this week:
•to track my eating every day
•to not eat "outside" food - only food that I have prepared (I just finished 8 days of eating from restaurants for at least one meal every day)
•to bike for 20 min 3 times
•to do a 10 minute (min) strength workout everyday

And on a non-fitness note, to pack up 4 footlockers this week (moving soon)

Okay, so I tracked my eating each day, I biked 3 times, and I did 3 footlockers. And for a bonus, I hit at least 5,000 steps everyday!

This week's goals are similar:
1. Track my eating
2. Bike 3 times
3. No outside food
4. Strength workout 2x

maybe not a "mini" goal but I have a wedding dress I'm hoping to fit into by October! If not, it obviously will be adjusted but it is a couple sizes down from my current size and it would feel so wonderful to be able to fit into it as is!

Mini-goal would be dropping 30 lbs. before our vacation in September. I'm down 17, so should be able to if I stay on track. Having a husband with similar goals is helpful. We walk just over 3 miles together every morning. The big challenge will be keeping it off. We have another vacation in early April 2024, so trying to get thru a Chicago winter without a lot of weight gain could be hard.

My current mini-goal is getting under 200 lbs again by the end of June (last weigh-in on the 9th I was 203.7 lbs) despite the vacations I've got planned.

Getting under 300 lb. I started a month or two ago at my highest recorded weight-- 326, and have been slowly dropping some here and there. Right now I'm 315, and I'm hoping to be sub-300 by end of summer!

To be able to walk lots of miles in November at Disneyworld and to get under 200.

Mini goal one is to look fantastic at a girls' beach trip at the end of the month. Mini goal two is much bigger - in August I'm spending 15 days on an active adventure tour in Costa Rica to celebrate my 50th birthday. I'll be rappelling down waterfalls, ziplining over the cloud canopy, river rafting, mountain biking - there's even a surf lesson! I cannot wait. And I want to be fit and healthy and keep up with the rest of the tour group. I'm well on my way to getting back to the best shape of my life, and anticipation of this trip is keeping me on track to meet my goals.

Minigoal. Lose 2kg in the next month for a wedding

For me it's just being able to feel somewhat comfortable wearing my size 40 belt! Haha.

A month ago I signed up to a 12 week personal training plan which has given me more confidence using free weights at the gym. By the end of it I would like to be deadlifting 125kg, squatting 110kg and benching 70kg. I have been restricting myself to 2000 calories per day while doing this and am seeing some steady weight loss of about 3 pounds per week.

I also do 10,000 steps most days and a couple of spin classes per week. For sedentary MFP gave me 1510 calories so 2000 seems about right with the activities.

I'm one month from my one-year point in this journey I'm on with weight loss and healthy eating. My mini goal is to be below 260 lbs on July 11th. I would really like to be at 258 because I started at 298. Then I could say I lost a total of 40 pounds in one year.

I am stoked with the drastic results in my thighs due to lifting hand weights at home, doing the bridge pose, using proper form with ab work and hydrants. Learning to slowly increase protein has also made a huge difference. Mini goal is to see more of my cheekbones and my jeans fit a smidge loose.

My mini goal is to lose 10 lbs. so far I’ve lost 6, since restarting MFP 1 week ago. Overall, I need to lose at least 50 by next summer (two of my kids are getting married and I don’t want to ruin the photos being so heavy). I have broken it up in to 10 lb chunks, to try to make it feel more manageable. So, 4 lbs to go and then I’ll be 1/8 of the way to my goal! 😋. I really enjoy reading these posts… helps me feel less alone in my journey.

Mini goal: Get under 170 by the end of the summer! I've already told my little brothers that if I can do it I'll buy the new Zelda game for us to play together - it's a powerful motivator to get them to go hiking with me

mgarrett1985

to get to 75kgs im 88.5kgs as of today i want to get to 75kgs by august-september getting so close now i was 119.1kgs in november 2022

Brigit02

My mini goal is to lose four pounds of fat by the end of next month.

I'm 139 lbs right now and my bikini just doesn't look so wonderful. At 135 I'll be able to wear it. At 130 lbs I'll be able to wear it and feel confident. But right now I'll take wearing it and feeling insecure but still being able to wear it.

Good luck and best wishes in making this happen!

callen9069

My daughter's wedding in September. 140 is the top weight for me not to be overweight, but hoping to get down to 135 before the wedding. I'm at 147 now.

For me sky diving. Oddly enough I was looking in the UK and you have to be about 70kgs to do it. That is my goal.

Jake5326

Mini (30 days): 1% drop in weight and BF. 5% increase in strength and cardio. Macro (180 days): 235lbs down to 210lbs, 15-20%BF, 50% increase in strength, flexibility and cardio.

Lightbeamer

I am 240.0 and my 1st goal is getting to 240.0, but I want to eclipse 240, and have at least 239 as the goal.

Scot1200

Hip Replacement

Anniesquats100

I will see my sister July 24 so I want to look better by then. That means keeping my calorie deficit above 400 (except Sundays) until then. I've been on my sister challenge for eight days; so far I missed one day and lost four pounds!

TheCabana7

Another 10lbs. I started saying I wanted to lose 75lbs but that really overwhelmed me. So I do increments on the short with 75 in my mind. I just hit 199 and I worked HARD for that under 200 mark lmao. My next goal is 189. Onward and upward.

dwilliamca

I started so I would be thinner for the cruise I'm taking with my granddaughter next month. So far down 35 lbs and hoping for another big 10 off....but at least I look and feel better than when I started. I want to find a new goal now....maybe another trip!

spirittrail

The last time I posted was 2 months ago. I am FINALLY out of the Obese category and into the OVERWEIGHT category. Ive lost 10 pounds since Spring. I needed to lose 8 to get here...and my next BIG goal is to lose another 12 pounds for late November. My Mini Goal is to lose 3.5 pounds and get below 170 lbs. Congratulations to everyone on your impressive achievements!!

You can do it! Your comment caught my eye because I want to be below 260 lbs by my July DMV appointment. (Photo time!)

I've been "trying to" get below 260 lbs for years now, but I just kept fluctuating between 260-ish and 280-ish. Time to get serious! So I started fastidiously tracking my calories a couple days ago, and made a plan to continue doing this for one year. I already have my meals mostly planned out through Monday. I will not fail myself again.

I also want to comfortably fit into my reading chair. Hard to relax when I have to squeeze myself into it

majork29

My mini goal right now is to lose 10lbs by August 5th. That would out me at 180lbs. This would make it so I can fit into my dress for our 26th wedding anniversary.

jojomcinnis05

I would like to fit in my jeans without a double bubble

hilarym1031

My first goal is to lose 10lbs. I just started a week ago. my next goal is to be down to 200lbs (currently 251) or out of plus size clothing, whichever comes first
