I feel like I can hit this goal before the new year!

You have roughly 32 weeks until the New Year to lose 39 pounds, which works out to about 1.2 pounds per week. However, bear in mind that Halloween, Thanksgiving and the winter holidays are between now and then.

So, while your stated goal isn't out of the question, there is not much wiggle room for slip-ups and off weeks. I don't know you, so I don't know how you approach a goal such as this. I'm thinking that It might be better to have a less ambitious goal and meet it, vs. not meeting an arbitrary cut-off and then feeling bad about it.

In any case, you have done wonderfully well so far. Forty-one pounds is nothing to sneeze at.

Congratulations on what you have accomplished so far. I wish you continued success in your weight loss.
