What Mini Goal is motivating you right now!

For me it's getting into a size 8 jeans. I've been a 10 in my adult life but I've never been an 8. Right now I'm a really loose 12 and looking forward to 10's then 8's!!!

My mini goal is to get back into my size 12 pants. I donated all my size 14's because they were way too big, and I was well on my way to the next smaller size. Then I had to have a hysterectomy and had to wear pants with a soft waistband for a while to protect the incision site, as well as having to severely limit my exercise for the duration of my recovery. And then (for a variety of reasons) I started "anxiety eating" and gained back some weight. So now it's time to stop that nonsense and put the stretchy pants back on the "exercise" shelf where they belong! I look forward to wearing jeans and regular pants again, hopefully by the end of the year.

My mini goal is pretty pathetic. All I want to do right now is end this year weighing less than I did when the year started. I've been up and down so much. I'm not even going to be upset if I don't get back to my ideal maintenance range before the end of the year, but it would be nice. I do want to be back in my ABSOLUTE maintenance range, and I think that's possible.

I won't say wish me luck. It's not about luck. It's about how I follow through on my goal!

Right. It is all about choices. It is both the easiest thing in the world and harder than lifting a mountain. No goal is too small. Set goals you think you can achieve and always find new goals. Fair winds and following sees my friend.

To reach my goal weight by the end of the year. I am just under 3lbs away so it is doable. Its been a long journey (started this one sometime in 2021) with a major plateau (over a year with no loss) but the longest journey, maintenance, is just around the corner. I'm ready for it.

My mini goal is to get to 7 days streak of logging on MFP.

Fell off for a few months due to mental health flare-ups and am trying to ease back into good choices. I don't eat enough calories unless I'm tracking and need to!

My mini goal is to lose 11 lb more by the end of January and reclaim my original starting weight on MFP. It was Jan. 2020, and healthwise it has been a bumpy few years. However, I am now lighter than I have been since March 2020.

I still have quite a ways to go after that, but it is exciting to see this threshold so close and do-able.

I’ve done it! Or close enough that I’ve lost 10% of my original body weight. So I’m chasing the next mini goal of 85kgs. My weight loss has slowed some, so realistically I’m looking at end of September beginning of October for that 🙂 really really pleased

Well it’s not the end of sept or the beginning of October but I’ve hung in there and I am hovering around the 85kgs mark ☺️

Next mini goal is to get to 82kgs and fit comfortably and confidently into all size 12 things I own.

I’ve clearly either had a whoosh this week or the body has been working on re-distributing as size 12 things are fitting me just fine 😮😮😮😮😮 I also only own like 3 items that go on my bottom half.

I’m off for 17 days over Christmas and NY and I am making a plan to do something active on each and every one of them. I also need to take time while I’m off to go through my wardrobe and pull out anything that fits me like a sack

Still chasing 82kgs. Hoping to get there by the end of Jan

In April I started the Monjuara shot for Type 2 and my BMI. I lost about 45 pounds. In August, I moved and changed jobs, so I lost my insurance. I heard stories of people who gained back everything after stopping the shot. So, I did my best, but I gained back about 10 pounds. Christmas Eve my pharmacy called, and my new insurance approved my shots and I have a $0 copay!!! This has really given me the motivation to push hard. Laying out a solid diet plan to bring my A1C down, I'm focusing on 10 pounds at a time, but I feel like there is light at the end of the tunnel once again!

Happy New Year everyone! My mini goal is to fit into my skinny jeans again. Over Thanksgiving my sister in-law mentioned a family trip to a beach. I am all in, but not exactly bathing suit ready.

I look forward to sharing our journeys.

Back on MFP for the last week. Just told I have high cholesterol and pre diabetic and low iron. Just started with iron supplements and tracking on here. My biggest problem is portion size and my Starbucks sweetened iced coffee. Always hovered around 175 until my last kiddo. She was born March 2018 and I delivered at 206lbs. Not losing much baby weight; stayed around 190, I have since Gained an additional 15lbs the last couple months putting me at my heaviest ever(209).

Mini goal: track for the next 2 weeks (really the month of January it starting even smaller).

Fit comfortably in my jeans size 14 which should probably be a 16.

I loved the comment of 15min of activity a day and increase each week… I started with about 15min today before reading this and am going to start this habit .

Well didn't reach my goal, hovering between 2 & 3lbs above it but thats OK, no gain over the holidays. I'm good with where my weight is now & if it takes a few weeks or few months to lose the last couple of pounds thats OK too.

To lose the 5 lbs I gained over the holidays and help by knee get stronger with exercises.

Stay sane until I start losing weight consistently

New clothing is always so exciting. I started at a tight 54 pant ad 5x shirt in July4, i'm I just bought 46 shorts and 3x shirts. The shorts are actually a bit lose so i'm 10 inches off my waist give or take. Very excited about eventually being a lose 40 with a waist again.

Sorry for the late reply. That's awesome for you.

@Siren2024 Today's solo trail run view.

It sounds like you're doing great. And, that picture is beautiful!

My mini-goal is that I'm going to join our local gym. I'm a bit out of shape. But, I'll just take it slow. From past experience, it doesn't take long to build your strength back up.

Sorry for the late reply. It took me a whole year to get there. Slow and steady wins the race! I started from zero so you can too!

So I had some good news today. My diabetes A1c numbers is now down to 5.8 from a high of 7.5 previously. Woot!. But now the real battle begins to keep it there so I gotta keep plugging away. Aim to get it to 5.5 and below and stay there! I think I have another 10kgs to loose this year to help with this

Bring it on
