Just started my journey back up and hoping it sticks this time around.... first mini goal is to lose the first 10lbs by the end of June and to complete the workout program I just started this week. These goals go hand in hand.
Mini-Goal? Buy a new road bike, get to 175 w/BMI at 23 and 12% body fat. Two Christmas's back I was at 245.. I really let myself go, too many social gatherings w/food & great beir and me saying yes to everthing sad.. In Jan2019, started using an elliptical trainer and cycling (again), I was able to burn ~1,000 cal/day on the eliptical, and 1400cal/day cycling, thenI started really watching my diet and stopped drinking for 9MO, lost 45lbs in 9MO, now I cycle every day burning 1400cal/day, but I want, no - I need a new bike, a sexy black 12lb bike. My Goal, I hung a picture of it (Cannondale CAAD13) in my office, to see it everyday, as my goal to 175! Today I'm at 190 BMI at 26, so I still have 20lbs to go.... - Wish me luck.... O yeah, and Im 60 this year, so being healthy is leik #1
Two mini-goals:
1) Complete "You Vs Year 2020" challenge of 1,020km on app by my 63rd bday in October. I finished the challenge two years ago 2 days after my bday. 517km so far.
2) Weigh and maintain less than 160 lbs... I've been hovering in the mid- to low-160s far too long.
30 lb down in 20 weeks. Not fast like some 'diets' i have been on but then when on them I gained back and gained more. today i watch macros and keep a log here and i am living my life daily. Biggest thing i have learned is one day does not make weight gain. its the days following. I am learning that just because i have a cheat day does not mean i have to quit. The Lord is my strength and gives me ability i just need to do it!! and i feel so much better now. God is good. Wishing you all a wonderful weekend!!
1. Wear my wedding ring again
2. BMI under 30
3. Not be prediabetic so get off meds
4. Going back to work as a healthier me in "the after", whenever that is
Plus, as others have noted, a healthier weight means less risk of succumbing to COVID-19.
Love feeling thinner and fitter, going down in clothing sizes, and finding "new" old clothes along the way.
would just like to get to 199lbs. i've been seesawing from 211 to 203 for three damn months, when i get close i self sabotage. when i get frustrated i self sabotage. it's been a never ending cycle of misery and i'm almost at miy wits end.

Been there! The last few pounds before a goal are always the hardest to lose! You can do it!
I've got 70lbs to lose - done this before so really want to lose it for good this time. My mini goal is to get below 200lbs - hopefully by the end of June.
I'm a newbie on here so I'm hoping you guys can support me on this journey!

My chart makes it so clear I gained 10lbs since returning to work from maternity leave and 5 since lockdown - emotional / stress eating much?!
Medium goal is size 12 clothes - 14 at the moment.

So the next goal is to start tracking my arm measurements, lift heavier with upper body excercises and see a 1" reduction in 30 days.
