Goals

Options
What type of goals do you ladies have? A few small ones to reach that big weight loss number or just one big goal?

    I have a good amount of weight to lose. so for me I am setting little goals. I did Weight Wathers in the past and it worked, i just dont have the time to get there weekly. I am thinking that my first goal here is to lose 15 lbs. I hope to have it done by the end of May!! Fingers crossed.

    Thats what I a m doing too. Small goals...when I reach the small ones it makes the IDEAL weight seem that much closer and achievable

    That is a great idea the small goals then you keep reaching a goal sooner and stay motivated. Good thinking!

    I'm setting smaller goals to reach the big one. I have a lot to get rid of (or at least in my mind i do) and I know breaking it up and reaching those smaller goals helps me get to the big picture without getting depressed cuz I'm not there yet. I have to get busy doing it though because I don't like the numbers I saw at the doc yesterday and I'm ready to get it kicked into gear:)

    For me I am taking one day at a time, and re-evaluate weekly. If I am losing then I know I am doing something right, if not then I will readjust and keep going. I am to the point after years of yo yo dieting and eating disorders where my mind is set to do it and re-educate myself about lifestyle choices. I haven't come out of the gates sprinting this time because I know that I wont keep that momentum going and I will get disheartened. Slowly and surely wins the race.

    As you can see from my ticker I have a longggg way to go. I have never been this heavy in my life and it was a real shock to my system to see the numbers right there in front of me.

    I know how you feel. I have been yo yoing for a while and I am tired of it. Don't want my son to go down the same path I did and if I don't start doing something now he will... :( So here's to our new lifestyle ladies NOT a new diet :smile: :flowerforyou:
