** Mine are to up calories to 1500 so that when plateau time hits, I can lower calories a bit at a time without being dangerously low on them.
** Maintain or lose weight while in London for 9 days--my plan is to allow a couple small meals the day of arrival to help with jet lag and time difference and have a bigger meal for dinner, and then shift OMAD the next day.
** Lose 4-8 pounds

And, go... :-)

    What a nice chart you have! Your goals sound great, btw.

    I want to lower my fat as well, that will be rough. I will try to work on it. Still using MFP for my guideline and they have it at 60.

    My goals are to lose 20lbs, lose at least 1 inch all around, weight lift 3 days/week and cardio 5 days/week. I aim to also make healthier meal options.

    Get down to 210. I've been stuck at 218 for a while now, but I have a feeling that OMAD might get my weight dropping again.

    Exercise five days a week. I have an exercise plan that I designed for myself.

    I aim to be below 190 by the end of May. I just got below 200 yesterday. Ten pounds in 31 days should be possible considering how much I have to lose in total.

    You can adjust this value. I have it set at 20g and that is VERY difficult to say the least. I often go over but I try to keep it as close to this value as possible. Get my calories from carbs and protein.

    Get to 239(or less), take my dog for a walk 3 times a week and be more consistent with OMAD.

    Thanks Sandy for starting this thread. Would like to join you all.

    My goals for this month:
    1. Restrict carbs to 80 gms which is the adequate amount for me. May go below 50 on some days but no more than 80
    2. No added sugar. Only stevia or going no sugar.
    3. Lose 5 to 7 kg / 11 to 18 lbs

    I love these goal threads, they really help keep me on track, and @1MADGIRL does a great job keeping them updated!
    My May goals are:
    Weight: 205
    Cardio: 2x a week
    Strength: 3x a week/ Squat my Body weight
    Inches: Down .5 (to 38)
    OMAD: Better job logging my OMAD (It really assists others when I ask for nutrition help)

    A realistic goal for me is to lose 5 pounds in May. I'd be happy with that.

    Okay, so I have lost 2.7 kgs so far in May. Was 92.4 on May 1st and its May 13th and I am 89.7 kg as of this morning. Not sure how much more I will be able to lose, but I do wish to achieve my May goals and lose at least 5 kg. May include a 3 day fast but I know the weight loss from that won't be permanent. Lets see. So far, looks good. I am under 80 gms carbs on most days, in fact less than 50 some days, which probably is helping. I hope to see more progress.

    Halfway through the month and 0 lbs lost, so my goal of losing 10lbs is in the trash. I'd be happy with 3 down by the 31st.

    My goal is to lose at least 4 more pounds (onederland eeeeeeek!!!) and to really start seeing my clothes fit better! I'm terrible about measuring so I won't even pretend I'll remember that one lol.. Not a when lotta time/energy to work out BUT I'm going to try to be super proactive at work about getting G up and walking and taking the stairs etc
