  • Milestone Goals

    Do you have a milestone/mini goal you are working towards?
    Do you have a non food reward planned when you reach this goal?
    Please share with the team.

    My next milestone is to reach the 180’s. I think I will go for a massage once I reach this goal.

    All my rewards would definitely be food related 😂 next mile stone would probably be once im below 160p

    Thanks! Southern Spain, its been a hot summer, over 35 degrees lots of days! I'm looking forward to the cool of September, so I can get back into regular walking and get those pounds dropping off again! Just have to survive a week of my mother's force feeding and the temptation of m&s!!

    Have a great time, Yes im also looking forward to September its just been to hot for anything lately!

    I've been in the gym 4x/week. Need to maintain that and even grow it to 5x or more.

    For those of you that use a protein powder, what brand do you use? I am looking for a chocolate flavour and something that does not leave an after taste.

    Having to eat my feelings without eating everything stinks. Last night I wanted to eat everything but had 2 pieces of licorice and stopped. This morning I didn't want to eat and yet I wanted to eat everything. I forced myself to have one small pancake, a yogurt cup and a nectarine. Then I needed a drink and bought a diet coke instead of normal coke. I hate this "victory" because we had to put one of our littles to sleep this morning. She went downhill rapidly last night and I thought she wouldn't made it till today. We thought we had another month or two. Sorry to bring you all down on this hump day.

    So sorry for your loss. Our pets become a very important part of our lives.

    @rwood566 So sorry on the passing of the little critter. Losing a pet is heartbreaking. 😥
