Short term: lose 6-10lbs
Mid term: lose 20lbs by October
Long term: lose 30lbs
Lifetime: continue to lose a little more but also start to tone more and gain more muscle! And be able to keep the weight off and learn how to eat healthy.0 -
I think I'm in the exact same boat as you in terms of the amount of weight I want to lose by those dates!
I'm really hoping to learn to live a healthy lifestyle where I'm not counting calories and stressing over what I eat. I got there last year, but something just triggered me to binge eat again. I miss the feeling of confidence that I had then, and a big lifetime goal is to regain and keep it!0 -

I totally get you on the binge sessions! They were my downfall - I'm healthy for most of the day, eating a reasonable amount of calories, then BAM at night I go crazy. I've more or less stopped in the past few weeks, but I still get the occasional urge
And yes to feeling happy in your skin that should be on all of our goal lists.
