Drop into the single digits for my pants size. Haven't been since my mid teens. I'm in 10s now for the most part. 17lb to my first goal. I'd like to be at goal or within striking distance for my b-day in Aug.6

You might want to make sure you are drinking the RIGHT electrolytes - you could talk to a professional for that but you could also take a look at your nutrition analysis (from your log) and see if you are low on potassium, sodium, etc. Also clothing makes a big difference so you probably want to look at that. Good luck with your goal!
As for myself, I made it to 50 pounds lost and my next goal is to hit 190, which will be 55 pounds lost. I'd really like to get there by June 24 but I'm not holding my breath.
I second this. I have black outs and fainting spells in the summer if I don't watch my sodium and potassium, especially my sodium. I have a hard time eating even close to recommended levels.4 -
I am doing a 30 day mini goal with my daughter. We have to log our food and get 30 minutes of exercise each day for 30 days. We are in our second week. Being accountable to each other keeps us motivated. Having her as my Fitness Pal is pretty cool! She has great discipline. She doesn't let life get in the way and derail her. I am following her lead and learning from her. That's my girl!!!19

I'm so close to my first stone...
I think I can get there in a couple of days, and definitely by Wednesday, which is my 'main' weigh-in day. I weigh daily to track fluctuations, but the Wednesday result is always the one 'that counts'.
After that, my next goal is to get to 1.5 stone down (so another 7lb), which should be anytime between early July and late August.8 -

Hang in there! If you're new to the gym or to lifting weights, you're going to see water retention as your body tries to hold onto it to repair damaged muscles. It's completely normal. Just stay consistent and you'll see it come off. Sometimes it'll be a few pounds at once, sometimes it'll pick back up again gradual. Take measurements, too! Those change even when the scale doesn't.6 -
I finally reached a healthy weight for my height, but I still have abdominal fat, so I hope to have a waist of 64 or 65cm, the last measurement was 69cm6

I set each mini-goal as one step down the BMI ladder. I'm working my way to the healthy range.9

Ugh, I was down to 182 lbs and for some stupid reason relaxed my habits and now I am back up to 189 lbs. I am listening to a book about habits and plan to incorporate some of what I learned.
There is a que, an action, and a reward. My bad habit that I fell into was eating husbands jelly beans, one or two small handfulls a day. I made a batch of sugar free jell (chemicals, I know) to give me something when I have that urge. The other habit I will change is to stay out of the kitchen unless I am eating at the table or preparing food.
Actions
1. Stop eating husbands candy (I live in a Willy Wonka house).
2. Stay out of the kitchen.
Reward after one week of success

My mini goal for June was walking over 200 miles, but my step tracker app has decided to "update" (in reality break itself) and now I have to push that one off. So now, I'm going to work on doing my first push-up since like 2010. My work gym reopens Monday, and I'm going to hit it hard with the bench press, incline push-up, and plank. I hope to have a strict push-up by the end of July.8

I want to jump rope 30000= 30*1000 times this month. I started late, 3 days ago on June 9th. And jumped 2000*3 times. So I am now 5000 steps behind.8

My current small goals are:
zip the straight size 16's (Maybe after TOM leaves!)
Lose 40 pounds (I have lost 35)
Get my weight below 260 (currently 263)
I don't think I've weighed under 260 since I was in college 25 years ago. And I know I haven't been in a straight 16 since I was a teenager.10
