QUESTION---IS THIS ATTAINABLE OR AM I NOT BEING REALISTIC

Starting today, 1/24/12, I am doing mini goals

24lbs (10lbs) by 2/18/12---I get to buy myself a FITBIT!!!
39lbs (15lbs) by 3/24/12 ---A new pair of shoes and a new pair of jeans!!!
49lbs (10lbs) by 4/20/12 (my 28th bday) Two new outfits (one dress)

I have lost 14lbs so far and these are my mini goals up until my birthday. I am saying I want to lose another 35lbs by April 20th which is roughly 3months away.

I WOULD LOVE SOME CONSTRUCTIVE FEEDBACK as to whether I am sounding absurd or if it can indeed be attainable.

    I agree thats why I decreased it to 10lbs after the 15lbs because I believe it will be hard for me to lose. Hmmm...

    My goal is 30lbs by my bday, which is April 1st. I believe it can be done just push hard and don't get discouraged. I'm trying my best to reach this goal, but if i don't I will not kill myself!!

    If I remeber correctly your bday is close to mines. You can at least do 30 lbs but its going to take dedication everyday.

    Thanks everyone for your feedback. Maybe I shouldn't do it per the deadline dates and only by the pounds lost. Trying to figure this out lol.
