I can't believe this is my new short-term goal...and it's attainable

I started LCHF eating mid-October of last year. I was 305.5lbs - an all time high for me. I'm now down 66 or 67 lbs and I have to say it's been quite easy. I now find my self thinking "Wow, I could actually lose 100 pounds!"
So, as unbelievable to me as it is my new goal now is to hit 100 lbs. If I never get there it's ok. I'm actually pretty happy now at 237 lbs, but it would just be sooo cool to join the century club. It would be probably one of the greatest achievements of my life. If I make it, the support of this group and the inspiration I've found here will have been a major factor in my success. Thank you, to all the good people on this forum.

I'm in a similar place. My short term goal was to get below 250 because I haven't spent any time on the other side of it in many, many years. I started at 289 on December 27 and set a goal of 249. As of this morning I'm 245.8. Now that I'm below 250 there's no way I'm stopping. I love this WOE. I feel better than I ever have in my life and the weight falls off effortlessly. I know it will slow down as I continue to lose, but somehow over these past few months it has become a lot less about the number on the scale and so much more about how I feel and how much I enjoy this WOE. I no longer obsess over points or calories. I no longer ride waves of guilt and shame for my food choices. As much as I appreciate the improvements in physical health, I am far more grateful for the improvements this way of life has had on my mental health. I'm going to keep chipping at myself 20lbs at a time (I need some sort of goal to plug into my app
) but from here on out, the focus is simply on feeling amazing. Which I do. 10 -
Thanks for all the encouragement! I feel very positive about the future.3
