    Your goals look great! I've been doing 6 week sessions at a time, planning for 2 lb a week. It's easiest for me to set a time limit instead of a weight limit because I'll keep putting it off if I have no time goal.

    The session I'm in right now ends the day before Valentine's day. When I want to quit I think about the dress I want to wear on Valentines Day to go have a great date night. The next day, I'll start again and pick something 6 more weeks out to look forward to and go for another 12 lbs.

    i LOVE your goal to book a cruise. I've always wanted to go on a cruise and have stayed away for fear of swimsuits. That's great motivation.

    My major goal is 100 pounds down.......by that time, my sister said she'd pay for my way to hawaii.......cool huh?

    Mini goal for the time being is a 20-30 pound loss........unfortunately I am having a bit of trouble getting to where I need to be to make this happen. I keep going over and over the same three pounds and I hate it!!! I am meeting a nutritionist at my gym that will help me with things hopefully. But I plan on a wardrobe change when my pants are too big for me!! :)

    First goal is to just get to 200 and then from there to lose 10 lbs at a time til I get to 150 lbs to reevaluate. I was 174 then gained 50 lbs with my pregnancy, lost 30 right off the bat then went back up to 216 when I joined MFP.

    Not sure what my “reward” will be for each goal but when I get to 150 or where ever I feel I should be, it will be a shopping spree for all new clothes.

    To make myself lose the weight, I took all my clothes out of my dresser and closet so I now have nothing to wear for the most part and I refuse to buy bigger clothes when I have/had a closet full of nice clothes.

    My mini goals are pretty simple, every 5 pounds I lose I can treat myself to one meal. Then, when I get to my goal weight I'm getting a full body makeover and new wardrobe.
