I woudln't set your goal around the scale, because sometimes, no matter how carefully you are on plan, the scale does not reflect your hard work. I would make a goal around things you CAN control, like (these are just examples, they should be meaningful to you):
* Eat 5 servings of vegetables every day
* Research and try at least 2 new healthy recipes per week
* Eliminate sugary sodas
* Go to bed on time at least 4 nights a week
* Exercise at least 3 times a week
* Stay within your calorie goal at least 5 times a week
When you accomplish your goals, reward yourself and set new goals for the next week! If you live a healthy lifestyle, the weight loss will follow but not in a way that could be frustrating.
