    Starbucktigh posted a "daily mini-goal" in another thread and I thought that was a great idea. Weight loss is a long, arduous process and setting daily goals is a great way to experience a little success every day!

    My daily mini-goal: Avoid the cookies on display in the kitchen. How they mock me. :laugh:

    Hi, I'm Kelly

    35 year old from Orlando, FL

    I saw myself in a picture a month ago and freaked out because I had secretly been gaining weight. A horrifying trip to the scale confirmed it. I was fat.

    My goals for this 100 days

    Take at least 15,000 steps per day (my current average is about 10,000)
    Stay within my daily calorie goal
    Drink 48oz of water per day (my current average is about 24oz)
    Log food and exercise each day

    Drink 1 extra bottle of water (I keep a bottle at my work desk)
    Mini-goal: no sweets for today

    Good luck everyone!

    Hi everyone,

    I'm Isa and I'm 25. Gained some kilos while doing a semester abroad in England. Now I have to get shot of them by some exercise and eating more conscious.
    Starting with 65kg I already lost 1kg (at least)... Hope to lose another 6-8kg until christmas. Actually it's helping a lot, to check your daily calorie content, because its so easy to lose sight of it.

    I hope we can motivate each other...

    Hi All!

    I'm Cat and I'm 34. I'm 5'2, so carrying a lot for my short frame. My overall goal is to lose 20 kg (from 73 to 53 kg/160 lb to 117 lb), and I want to get a close to this as possible by Christmas. I'm on day 3 of calorie counting. I exercise regularly, but want to add more cardio into this and perhaps some other things to mix it up a bit.

    My mini-goal for today is not to make an excuse to not go to the gym!

    I just joined this group. Thought I would say hi.

    I'm 32, F, working mom of 2 toddler girls. Live with my hubby and mom. Been struggling a lot with weight, well honestly all my life. I have lost 50lbs before I met my hubby but life and babies happened and I would like to drop back down some by Christmas/new years. I put on a few more pounds this month from prednisone I had to take to stop an allergic reaction, so I guess those pounds go first.
    My main issue is getting exercise in...I just lose all motivation to do anything by the time I get home from work.

    Hello I am 29 years old from FL. I never had a problem with my weight until after the birth of my son. Now I can't seem to lose weight- I am almost at my highest pregnancy weight (embarrassing). I am currently 170ish and hope to lose 20lbs by Christmas. I have been a vegetarian for over 10 years but I prefer carbs to veggies LOL. My main goal is to eat more protein and drink more water- I feel the weight loss will come if I can just do that. Seems easy enough right? Good luck everyone!

    My goal is to stay focused, eat healthily, log everything and exercise 5x per week and hopefully the rest will happen over the 100 days if I can stick to this!

    Hello everyone!

    I'm 28 from Orlando and looking to lose about 40 pounds total! I work a desk job so I don't get a lot of movement throughout the day. I am currently on week 4 of Focus T25 and very proud of myself for sticking with it this long. I am on here and log everything daily. Looking forward to the next 100 days!
