I think non-weight goals are great! Rewarding ourselves for maintaining the lifestyle is just as important (if not more) as rewards for scale related success!
I like to say that my goal is 10 lbs per month. I think that 2.5 lbs per week, while ambitious (for me) is possible. I haven't been hitting 10 per month since getting under 200 lbs and it's not a set in stone goal, so I don't feel bad if I don't make it. I still celebrate the success I have. Right now I just want to get out of the 190s! Maybe next week...
