I was 210 this morning, and that used to be my top weight--but the last five to eight years have been a slow but steady rise in the upward direction. So my mini goal for right now is to make 210 my "real" number, not the number showing up after a particularly hot and intense workout the day before. Let's see if I remember that I have a mini-goal
I have knee surgery in September. My goal is to exercise on my "dreaded" elliptical every day...maybe one day off per week. I am now on it for 30 minutes at a time. I have been on MFP for years and haven't logged food for a long time. But I am now logging my food again. I also want to get 10 pounds off prior to surgery. Those are this old woman's goals. So different from when I was trying to get into a swimsuit for the summer. I still swim when I am in Hawaii. The pools are closed for COVID right now. I also like to kayak and bike ride. That is the reason I need to go through a knee replacement. Hope everyone meets their goals.
Slowly dropping down.....I have 24 days to get down 4 pounds. Looking at hitting the 200-teens... getting out of the 220's. Haven't seen those numbers for years.
Right now my weight is 202 lbs so my mini goal is to get to 199. It kind of SUCKS to have that goal since I was trying to lose weight 10 years ago when I was 165 lbs...but it is what it is.
Right now it is limiting the wine during the week. Not having the gym makes it even more important to keep the calories in check & that is harder with that extra glass of wine.
Hi Randj6280! I am going to stick to my calorie goal. It’s only 1200 but I’m short and very sedentary outside of exercise. It’s sooo hot out so I haven’t been going for my usual long walks which I miss. So I’m mainly just focusing on what I eat.
Not really a mini goal, but I am getting married in 79 days time and want to look good in my dress. Fiance is naturally thin and didn't want to look like Laurel and Hardy in the wedding photos. Now need to get my dress taken in!!

Just restarting losing weight.
I am tipping the scales at 353lbs and it would be nice to get that first 4lb out of the way to put me below 350lb.
My ultimate goal is rather more ambitious....to lose 128lbs

Congratulations! And what a lovely dress!
Thank you. I've lost a total of 35lb since January and dropped 3 dress sizes. I just need to learn to keep the weight off now....always a bigger challenge than losing it for me!

Oh yes, I really understand where you are coming from! There is a great threat on the forum offering inspiration for those who lost and gained again and are now losing again. There are a lot of us around.

Hi Kupla71If you have this goal of 164... you CAN do it. What is your plan to hit this goal?
Looks like you're on track! Way to go, ... keep going.
Funny how things with cause us to get anxious and in the same breath it will motivates us. GO AFTER IT!!!!
Oh I so recognise that! I am aiming to be *really* 83.9 kg or less, when I first get up, not just when I weigh mself after a pre-breakfast work out.
