What Mini Goal is motivating you right now!

SW: 94.2kg (207.7lbs)
CW: 78.1kg (172.2lbs)
GW: 68.8kg (151.7lbs)
Which means I'm creeping ever so close to being 2/3rds of the way to my goal, reaching a normal BMI! Only 0.9kg (2lbs) left to that milestone

I'm motivated with these types of reactions I only see in the movies!!!
I was so unbelievably flattered this morning...
I went to pick up my free birthday latte at Starbucks but wasn't ready yet so walked away. Behind me was a handsome tall young man with blue eyes at least 10 years younger than me, when I turned back around to check my order I caught him at a total frozen pause at the doorway threshold holding door open staring at me unabashedly with a huge smile even boldly did the slow once over body scan. I NEVER got that kind of attention when I was obese... I'm so motivated now to stay at my high school weight and keep my girlish figure...7 -
There's two actually:
* Improve every single metric for my "Rockport Walking Test" when I try again May 1
* Dropping 3% body fat by June 15
* Blew the walking test out of the water and am in the top category now ("Excellent"). I now think my "Poor" February results were due to needing to manoeuver through snow and ice.
* More than 1% down but I need to pick it up a bit more on the body fat percentage reduction.10 -

May you enjoy a great birthday weekend @mhainlen52!

Birthday today...and 178.1 on the scale! May 29th will be one year since starting this weight loss journey. New mini goal is 175.9 by then.7 -

Thanks! It's been a great day so far and it's not even noon!!1 -

Frustrating, but at least things are settling in again enough to the point where I feel like I can say that I have enough in me to try again.
Even though it's only 1.3 pounds, it will likely take a couple of weeks. This will be due to a self-enforced slow slide into deficit (to avoid shocks leading to bingeing) along with using a 7-day average. Honestly I am half tempted to use 28-day average, but that would take a lot longer, as I've been effectively maintaining for the last month.
It was really helpful to come back and catch up on all the fitness and weight goals you all have been setting and accomplishing. Keep at it!
I'm surprised (but pleasantly so) that I am able to announce today that my 7-day average JUST snuck under my goal.
Next goal: Under 190.0 on the 28-day average. That number is 193.6 today.8 -
I'm here reading all these awesome comments and I reach behind my shoulders to massage a sore spot that is always there AND I actually felt my own shoulder blade. A real bone. Been YEARS. What a feeling.14

I want to get under 125. Last year I was maintaining at 116 and really feeling myself. I realized that 125 was where my body plateaued last time so for now my mini goal is to get past this hard spot once more.8

This is kinda a near future mini goal, but one I'm excited for nonetheless.
I'm 25 weeks pregnant and I've told myself that after my baby is here, once I get back down to pre-pregnancy weight, I'm going to reward myself with getting my belly button pierced!
It's something I've always wanted but I've always been too chicken.
I can't wait to get started working towards it, but little man needs to cook a little longer

Getting over elbow injuries, finally able to challenge myself; but only with little boy weights 🤣6

My short term (I hope) goal is getting a blood sugar reading under 200. Nothing like a little out of control Type II to make me lose weight! (Yes, my G.P. is aware and I have a tele-appointment with an endocrinologist on Wednesday.)14

The best of luck 🤞.2 -
I’m working on being able to run a 5k and average 8 minutes per mile. I’ve never been a great runner, but trying to get better. I have a training program I’ve been utilizing every day.13

Losing 20% of starting weight. I'm about 7 pounds away, but each pound lost is harder than the last.11
