    well my mini is fitting into a specific pair of jeans and then the biggie would be those jeans that have about a 3 or 4 inch muffin top~they are the same size but fit differently. i used to fit into them wah!

    I'm actually over where I was a few months ago (probably due to medication-related weight gain and being sloppy about logging). I'm moving inthe right direction, so my first goal is to get back to 187 (23 lbs down as the ticker tocks). After that, below 175 would be huge for me.

    My mini-goal is to be 199 or less. I'm only 5'1.5" for goodness sake, 200 and ANYTHING on me... There's no place to hide it. Back when I was doing Dr. B, I would always chant '199... 199...' Whenever something tempted me. Since I'm only trying to stay under my 1690 calories now, I don't really do that anymore. But the idea of NEVER being more than 199lbs is awesome ^_^

    I don't know how long it'll take me to get there, now that I'm not on Dr. B though. Is there a time limit to this group?

    I'm right there with you. I'm currently 208ish and I want to be 199 already!!
    There is no time limit, just update us when you hit a mini goal of yours and we'll be there to support you!

    First mini goal will be fitting into the jeans I used to be able to wear 2 years ago. I think I'll have to lose about 10 or 15 pounds to make that happen. It would be really nice to have more jeans I can wear, since I only have two pairs now.
  • My mini goal is to be able to get to the 145 mark...Once I get there I'll feel much better.

    10 jeans are great! i am a sucker though so not buying anymore jeans because all of mine are way overpriced and i told myself i didnt get to buy anymore until i got back into the old ones. i have like 20 pair in my closet that i cant fit into right now! yes i know i am a clothes *kitten*! lol
  • I want to get into the size smaller jeans I got last week, I can get them on but the muffin top is horrendous!
    I should need to lose a lot less than a stone to get it! :3

    I have 2 mini goals right now.
    Reach 160 by New years (I weighed in this morning at 162.6).. And to reach 150 before my first 5k, which isn't till late June.

    I think my goals are pretty reasonable. Though I might not reach the new years goal, but I won't kick myself if I don' reach it by that time. :)

    Almost all the jeans I have in my closet don't fit. I told myself after I gained weight that I wouldn't buy myself new jeans that fit because that would be like tolerating the weight gain, definitely don't want to do that.

    Getting back into the swing of things, eating better and exercising at least 3x/wk...I guess the mini goal for me right now would be exercising 3x/wk, next would be getting under 199lbs. I am currently the heaviest I have ever been....ever. I work 3rd shift and have a really hard time eating right!!! Of course with dedication anything is possible.

    Hi everyone! My mini goal is to lose weight BEFORE new year's day. This next week is the time when I can put on 10 pounds easily. I want to be different this year.

    My long term goal is to get under 200. But that's a ways away!

    I also have a great pair of jeans I'd love to wear again. If I lost 10 pounds I'd say I could fit them again....

    like a lot of others mentioned, I would also like to get under 200 lbs. The last time I weighed myself (at least a month and a half ago) I was 208. My weight hasn't really been budging since September, but I'm trying harder this time.

    Just wanted to know if anyone's close to their mini goal? I know I'm not, (but I have a plan) but how about everyone else?

    I got struck by a serious illness. Laziness. I got lazy and I didn't go to the gym or anything.

    Realization time: I can eat more if I work out... Motivation!

    Anyway, this week I've gone to the gym 5 days in a row, and restarting the C25K program, going at my own pace. I rediscovered my love for the elliptical and I'm lifting a lot more.

    That's how my journey is going, how about everybody else?

    I know it's not my mini-goal, but I have a NSV that I just HAVE to share!

    So, I'm going to the Calgary Expo at the end of April with my hubby and since he went out of his way to buy the uber-expensive tickets (and since it turns out that the ENTIRE original cast of Star Trek: the Next Generation is gonna be there), I've been working my butt off to make sure that I look good for the con. I'm planning to go as a steampunk schoolgirl, and figuring out how to make that work has been a challenge, but I have a few ideas. The problem so far has been getting 'school attire' that it's slutty. I'm going for cute here, but cute in my size is being uncooperative.

    ANYway, I have this black, pleated skirt from back in the day that - if it was blue - would be perfect for my outfit, but since it's the style of pleated skirt I'm having my hubby make for me, I figured I'd try it on to get a rough idea of how far off the pattern would be. IT FIT! ZIPPED UP ALL THE WAY AND BUTTONED AT THE TOP!

    I stil can't believe it, I love that skirt, but I haven't been able ot fit into it since before my wedding almost seven years ago.^_^ I mean, sure it was tight, but Chris told me that it didn't fit as well on my before as it does now! Oh my gosh, it's working! I'm seriously losing fat and inches if that particular skirt is able to be even a tight fit! Thanks minna ^_^
  • 7 pounds off my first goal of 199 pounds grrrrr I CAN DO THIS, the con I want to go to is in 36 days ;_; I can do it I CAN DO IT!

    My mini goal is to get back down to 160 by mid May and then work down further from there. Over the past several months, I broke my own weight record by two pounds (the highest I had ever weighed used to be 166-now I weigh 168). Not good as I had previously promised myself when I was at 166 that I would never allow myself to get up that high again. Please note that for me 168 is very high as I don't carry it well.

    Well... When I was graduating college about a month ago I went dress shopping. I found two dresses I absolutely loved. The one was my size and the other was a size to small. But of course I could not pass up the sale of the dress that did not fit me. It was originally I think about $60, and it was on sale for $7 plus an extra 20% off... I know it would have been so dumb for me to leave it. Well... I made this gorgeous dress my goal. It sits on the back of my bedroom door everyday. I tried it on when I first got it, of course it did not fit. Then I tried it on a week later, just to keep reminding me how beautiful I looked in it, it still did not fit. It has been about 3 weeks, I tried it on last night and I am so close to getting there. It is just a little snug and I can't get it zipped up the last like inch. But this is my mini goal, I want to be able to fit into it by graduation party in July... Here is to keeping my fingers crossed and the sweat dripping... :)
