For me it's getting into a size 8 jeans. I've been a 10 in my adult life but I've never been an 8. Right now I'm a really loose 12 and looking forward to 10's then 8's!!!

Being shredded (have a 6-8 pack abs) before mid september for my cruise. Still need 7 lbs to go (I was at 155 lbs last year when I had a clear cut 6 or close to 8 pack abs), it will be tight, but I think it's possible for me to acheive it before my trip.

I work in an elementary school office. I go back to work on Friday (July 27th). Kids start back on August 23rd. I want to lose 5 pounds before they come back. That will put me at 50# lost!

Only 2.2 until I'm officially not obese, goal is by Aug 10.

stay under my calorie goal for 7 days in a row.

I noticed yesterday that my jeans are starting to wear in the chub rub area. When I bought these jeans I also bought the same jeans two sizes down in anticipation of getting there. I stalled for 3 months due to life stuff and now it's on me to get to the next jeans size before these ones give out on me.

there is this pair of jeans that I got when I was heavier and I wore so much (and they have changed shape so much...) that I started to seriously hate them. I will bring them on holidays wear them a few times and then say goodbye. I am so looking forward to throwing them out and it will be because I have outgrown them and they'll be too big (and ugly, but mostly too big).

8 pounds, (=40 pounds total loss) and I'm treating myself to a day at Chester Zoo.

Fitting a mens size 29 pants and getting into an extra small shirt. At size 30 pants and small shirt right now almost there!

First mini goal is going under 350. Started at 405 and sitting as of this morning at 386.
Only good thing about being really overweight is it comes off so easy at first. Great for motivation.

I don't know if I said this before, I wanted to but don't see it. A family get together that is coming up, the thinner I am the more happy I will be.

If I figure out how to get off this two week plateau I will help you down.

Jams29 · July 2018

Well, my last one was getting into the 160's... I'm there now. Now my mini goal is to get down to where I was before I stopped using MFP before. A couple lbs to go!

Keep on keeping on! I recently had a 3 week stall and was finally rewarded with a 2 pound loss over 2-3 days going into the 4th week.

Seeing 179lb on the scale. I feel like I should have hit it already this past month with my eating, but I ended up losing inches instead of scale weight, which is great, but I REALLY want to hit the 170s.

Almost to my last mini goal which was to get to 75 days logged in consecutively. Only 5 more days, then I'm working on 100!

My other mini goal is to keep a tally chart on a post it note on my bureau mirror for days without weighing myself. I get SO frustrated when I don't see a number I want to. So much that I'll give up or eat my feelings-- dumb and counterproductive!!

It's best I just don't weigh at all and trust the process. There are several other ways to track progress that won't get me frustrated such as noticing my clothes feel looser, smaller measurements, being able to walk farther, ability to lift heavier, etc.

Good luck to all! 😊

intrigame23 · July 2018

Oops. Forgot to add that after 14 tallies for not weighing myself, I earn a trip to Savers for a 'new' shirt. After 30 rallies, I earn a new pair of work shoes which I really need because I don't have any!

Next weight/size mini-goal: ONE-derland, 5lbs to go. Then another lb and I’ll be under 90kg which is my primary measuring unit, but one-derland is closer so I’ll work on that first

Next NSV goal: staying active and eating somewhat sensibly during a super hard week of studying, so I don’t feel like crap physically on top of the mental load. I’ve done that whole eat-like-crap-and-don’t move-at-all thing of studying on sheer painkiller power because of back/neck issues, then not sleeping well and eating like crap on top of that. Was not fun. This week won’t be fun either, but I’ll get through it with my sanity and health intact, and my thesis turned in my midnight on Monday. I also did the wise thing and I already have a massage appointment booked for the day after the deadline.

BOOM! It took 79 days since writing this post, but I finally broke through and hit both one-derland and under 90 on the same day.

Also, my BMI is apparently now 29.97 so technically not obese, but that still rounds up to 30.0 so my next super-mini goal is to lose 0.1kg more so my BMI rounds up to 29.9 and I’ll be overweight and thus in the BMI class I want to stay in (I have several independent coaches/trainers agreeing that going below 25 would not be sustainable for my build and the amount of muscle I already have).

Getting down to 350. Baby steps, you know what I mean? Hmm. I have plenty of goals. Most seem long term tho. I need more short term goals.
Being forced to buy some new clothes would be a good one.
Learning more about nutrition and getting myself right in the kitchen.

See the white skirt in the pic? I'm at the blue skirt. I used to wear the red one.

@hipari CONGRATS!!! Breaking through the 200 barrier is like flying at the speed of sound: you know it when you get there, you feel it as you pass through it, and it feels MAGNIFICENT!
