My first mini-goal is getting into the "overweight" category rather than "obese" on my BMI. I'm 5 pounds away from that. (I despise that chart.) Then I will be just over 30 pounds away from the "normal" category. A little more long term goal is to not be the 'chubby girl' on a bachelorette trip to Vegas that I'm going on in September. I have anxiety just thinking about it.
I can officially say as of this morning, I have hit mini-goal #1. Now on to the next 5 pounds!24 -
My goal for now is to eat more vegetables and to get out of the 240''s.13

I weighed in today at 200.8lbs. I've lost 125lbs so far. I have never weighed less than 235lbs in my adult life. The mini goal keeping me motivated right now is to get out of the 200s! And I'm damn near there. About 40lbs left to go to my ideal weight!37

My new goal is cracking the 205 lb barrier.
I finally cracked the 210 lb barrier! I got close 2 to 3 times over the last 4 years.
For the last 25 years I could never get lower than 210 lb till I started a low carb, no sugar diet and exercise lifestyle. and two hours of fat burning zone exercise.
I'm not full Keto, just low carb and no sugar.
Along with the new lifestyle I also started Intermittent Fasting I exercised and dieted before but now I'm not hungry.
The fasting is from 8pm to 3pm daily only eating only from 3pm to 8pm and then nothing but water, tea or coffee through the night and morning till afternoon.
My new goal is cracking the 205 barrier.
Greetings to all and have a great day.8 -

I have been able to get my steps over 7k pretty consistently, so got to keep that up. Due to some intermittent leg stiffness of my dog, she's been on a don't run/jump limit for a bit, but leashed walks are ok. So we've been trying to do more of those, which definitely helps the step count. I'm going to bump this up to 7500.
The 5 a day of vegetables and fruits is not progressing as well. There are days I'm good but still more days not so much. After some internet research, I have realized I don't always know what a serving of vegetables looks like. 6-8 baby carrots is a serving. that seems incredibly small. So maybe I'm doing better than I realized, I don't know. Side effect of not even attempting to log is that I don't remember what I've eaten when so it's harder to determine progress. Continuing with the goals of 5 a day but probably need to add logging back in as well.7 -
I need to just lose 1.5lb by next Monday to have lost 10lb in my first 4 weeks, I would be down to 170 from 180. I am hoping to lose 10lb a month for the foreseeable until I get back to whatever seems a healthy weight and size. I was 142 and a size 4 when my 11 yr old was diagnosed with cancer and then I was diagnosed 6 months after him, we are both fully recovered, but I had a long recovery and Covid and as a result was very sedentary and put on the weight. But I am feeling very positive and hopeful right now, so hoping I can meet my first goal.19

Putting in here in black and white to help keep me accountable. I want to stick to my plan for the rest of April and hopefully that commitment will see me drop down to 90kgs (.5kgs a week seems an okay target). I was around 90kgs last year before I got the flu and then moved so it will be nice to keep tracking on!9

I'm within 10 lbs of being -100 from my max (which was last summer).13

I have 5 weddings coming up and i started buying some dresses for each event. I purchased 2 dress that are low back/ backless style, and i want to feel confident when I wear them. I’m back down to my 100lb weight loss, but would love to lose another 7 to 10lbs!!12

My mini goal is to stay in my calorie deficit for 2 weeks. I have tried a bunch of times to start but was looking to far ahead and then I crash and burn. I want to see what results 2 weeks will bring if I just stick to it, then I can reaccess from there. No added sugar, 1 carb a day, 10,000 steps a day, 3 water bottles and NO snacking after 7:00pm.11

My mini goal is to do strength training twice a week and to include vegetables or fruit with every meal. I’ll see how things are looking a month from now and go from there. Hoping to lose a solid 3 lbs in the next month and a half. Slowly but surely!12

I'm just three days away from logging in my food and exercise for 90 straight days!! 😀 I started about 4 months ago but broke the chain. I decided to set a goal of logging for 90 days and it's basically here. Now it's a habit so I plan to keep going.11

1. Continue to be as active as I can be each day. I'm tired of slowly killing myself just by sitting around all day. Health issues be darned! I'm gonna do it! Even if it's as little as 20 minutes a day, it's a good start.
2. Keep to my calorie goals. I log each and every single thing that goes into my mouth, even if it's a "cheat" or bad for me. It's a struggle after a lifetime of binge eating which got me in this shape in the first place, but it's worth it.
3. Keeping my blood sugar in balance. I went for so long not caring that I've wound up with so many diabetic complications, and I'm hoping all of this ends up helping to reduce further damage. Maybe if I'm lucky it can even minorly reverse some of it. Thankfully for the past couple of weeks now I've been staying right within my goals of keeping my glucose under 120 mg/dl, with bedtime and fasting usually under 100 mg/dl.
4. Mini-weight goal is to get under 300 by my next NP visit in April.
I actually did my mini weight goal! I weighed in at 297 pounds at my three month follow up! Also, my A1c dropped from 6.7% in January to 4.9% in April! All my other results look good too other than obviously bad cholesterol is not quite as low as it should be for a diabetic, my triglycerides are still high but much lower than before (from over 300 down to 203) and my good cholesterol is still a little low. But I'm happy I'm finally on the right track!
NOW my next mini weight goal is to get down below 280, which will be the lowest weight I've been since... heck. My early teens lol. hopefully I'll be at or past it by July which is my next lab/follow up date.16 -
My mini goal is to be able to do a 5k in Detroit on June 10th8

I would like this week to stick to my meal plan for 4 of 7 days! I've got dinners prepped already, and sticking to my breakfast and lunches are generally no problem. I struggle with snacks - particularly when I misjudge what time dinner will be. Some days, no matter how hard I try, I lose my brain in the late afternoon. So my mini-goal this week is to a gentle stretch. Definitely doable but will still take some effort. Have a great week, everyone!8
