  • Christmas Goal?

    I noticed that lots of people set mini goals...which I think is a great idea. I'm going to set some of my own and post them on my fridge.

    Anyway...does anyone have Christmas goals set? Or thanksgiving? New Years?

    I think that I'd like to be at 175 by Christmas. That gives me a little over 2 months to lose 20 more pounds, or a little less than 2.5 lbs a week.

    Re: Christmas Goal?

    I had written in another post that I'd like to be wearing a size 12 by Christmas...which on me, would be in the 190s (I'm dead serious...I must have a lot of muscle or something). So my Christmas goal will be 190 OR a size 12, whatever happens first.

          Emily--Well I'm 5'8" but I'm really evenly proportioned...so maybe it could be that my weight is distributed very evenly. I look about 30lb. lighter than I really am.

              I have never set myself time/weightloss goals as I know that if I tried my hardest and didnt reach them I would be tempted to give up!!

              Instead I set goals like:
              XX days cheatfree eating
              Exercising for xx minutes x times a week
              Drinking xx ounces of water each day

              These were things I could control by making the right decisions and therefore were attainable!
              Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?
              Take a look at the thread from the latest Veggie Challenge to see how others manage it!

                    Below 240 was my modest Christmas goal (which was a 10 pound loss from Halloween). I was tempted to strive for me, but knowing the holidays could be a tough time -- even with legal foods -- I was conservative. 7 more pounds to go.

                      I would like to be around 160 (or less *fingers crossed*) by Christmas. Hopefully that will be a size 10.
