What Mini Goal is motivating you right now?

I like mini goals. Seems to break down the huge journey down and make it more manageable. I'd like to lose 20lbs before my family vacation with friends in June. You may say that seems fast, but I always lose a good bit the first week I pay attention. Maybe it's water weight, but I'll take it!2

Anyone getting close to achieving their mini Goal? I am one pound away... just wanted to remind you all to check in so we can celebrate with you.2

7lbs to go till 220 and my next 20lbs increment goal reward! Trying to do it by early June, so I think it's possible.2

I weighed in this morning at 201, so I'm just two pounds away from my mini goal Hopefully it'll happen this week!4

I did my 5k on Saturday! It was a lot of fun and I'm proud of how far I've come! I also have some less positive feelings about it which I will probably post about in our thoughts and feelings post.
I think my next smaller goal will be to reach 225 pounds. Theoretically I can do that by 14 July.6 -
My husband and I just decided to go to my son's Marine MOS graduation in California in late June. It's out in the desert so we are looking at 100 degree days! I don't know about y'all but I want to feel comfortable wearing summer clothing..............so mini goal is I have been doing the elliptical every day for the last 6 and plan to try to do the elliptical or treadmill for 30-60 min every day until we leave.3

My immediate mini-goal is to hit the 190s or "Onederland", I am 1.4lbs away so I anticipate this will happen by next weigh-in if my trending is even halfway consistent. Next mini-goal that should be attainable within ~4 weeks will likely be my 90lbs lost milestone.
Both mini-goals complete! Next one will be 100lbs lost milestone...8 lbs away.3 -
Blew through 250 this week, new mini goal is to lose 50, half of my loss goal.6 -

Last weekend, I went back to my parents' house and went through a bin of clothes in my old bedroom that were from my first few years of college, including some jeans, shorts, and a bunch of t-shirts. I'm happy to say that the pants fit again, but the t-shirts are a little tight, so my next non-scale goal is getting those shirts to fit, now that I've brought them to my apartment!4

Currently I am about 6 weeks out from going to California. I have increased my workouts and decreased my calories. This is a temporary push toward looking my best on vacation. After that I will take a week long diet break where I eat at maintenance and resume my normal workout schedule of 4 days a week.
So my mini goal is 270 by June 26th. That's right at 2# a week.3 -
I am trying to hit 284 by June 1st. I am 4 lbs from goal so it will be close and I don't want to eat too much under my goal. I have a doctors appointment on the 1st and want to do it as a surprise. He's been on me for years to lose weight and I always said sure but never did. But showing up at 129kg instead of the 134kg would be a pretty big loss for me.4

I'd like to be down to below 310 lbs when I see my PCP at the end of June. I checked in at 319 this week, so I have 4 weeks to lose 12 lbs. I say 12 because I weigh in in the morning when my weights the lowest, but the appointment is at 3 pm - so I need to lose enough to account for the daily gain plus my clothing and shoes lol, and I hope that would be enough to register as 310 for the appointment. Even if I don't get that goal, I know my doctor is going to be estatic that I'm down to the 310's, so it will be a good visit regardless!3

For some reason they frown on you getting naked to weigh in!!!!! LOL

I suppose it depends on what kind of appointment it is! lol

I hit my mini goal this morning! I am 284 for the first time in 5 years. I am also going to be 5kg less than I was at last appointment with doc. My resting heart rate is in high 60's/low 70's range. So while I do have work to do it is a marked improvement over the high 70's I was at.
Next mini goal is going to be 10kg (weight of 124.4kg or 274.25lbs) off my last doc weigh-in. I am going to try for 5 weeks, June 21st it is. I have a doctors appointment every 2-3months so if I can manage 10kg between appointments I'll be shocked. I know weight loss slows down but I got a long way before that becomes an issue.4 -
Just found this chat ... my next mini goal is to get to 60lbs down ... this is the midpoint of my weight loss journey. Right now I am about 50lbs down; it's getting hard to lose because I am relocating to a new country so my usual routine its upside down now .. eating a lot of carbs and not exercising as often. But I hope as I get familiar with my new city I will be able to get back to losing 1.5 to 2lbs / week.
I will keep you posted!2 -
My current mini goal is to loss enough weight to use my bathroom scale. The max weight on it is 300lbs. I was 311 at my last Drs appt, that was on 5/18 so by 6/18 I want to be under 300lbs.5

My new mini goal is to reach the 50lb weight loss mile stone! I just reached my 30lb mile stone so now 20 more lbs to go!4
