    I have a goal of getting to my goal range of 138-142 by my October 7 birthday, and a goal of figuring out how to maintain that by Christmas!

    edited to add: That is losing 5.2- 9.2 pounds.

    Realistically, 20 lbs. That's a little more than a pound a week. I hope to lose more though!!

    I would like 20-25lbs. That would be approx 1.2 -1.5 lbs per week.

    I have 31lbs to my goal weight and I would like to lose half of that by Christmas.Obviously, I'd love to lose more, but I don't want to set my hopes too high and then fail and disappoint myself. I am setting 140lbs as my official Christmas goal.

    I would like to not only lose my last 8 lbs, but build muscle and tone in the process. So basically I want to be 140 lbs of solid muscle. :bigsmile:

    Eek- celebrations are SURE to slow me down! Between now and Christmas I have three weddings, my brother's birthday, a weekend-long visit from family (always turns into a party), the inevitable Halloween and Bonfire Night celebrations, a couple of housewarming parties, a couple of friends' birthday nights out...and that's before we even get to December and the Christmas party season!

    47. Considering the scale has stopped moving, that may not happen, but may as well aim high.

    2 inches in my hips and reach 18-20% body fat :))))) Not necessarily weight loss, I wouldn't mind if my pounds would be muscle :)

    I am aiming for 20-30 pounds by Christmas! That should put me at the weight I was when I met my hubby and leave me with only 20-30 pounds left to lose to reach my goal!

    To stay on my long term goal - I will lose about 32 more pounds by Christmas day. That is 1.84 pounds per week for 17.57 weeks - something I can do AND something I want to do!
