I usually go overboard & make my goals too aggressive then, of course, fail and give up. As the 90 degree day today reminds me, summer is creeping up on me and I have HATED summer for so long now because of my weight. It's super hot out and I don't like to wear sleeveless shirts or light colors. Also, I tend to feel too hot all the time from carrying all this extra weight and I'm just uncomfortable and cranky until the autumnal equinox! This year, I would love to have a goal for Memrorial Day, Fourth of July, Labor Day Weekend and I think I could get to Onederland by Christmas if I keep OP. I would like to have a year that I allow myself to be in summer activity pictures.
I have a picture of myself from last Memorial Day. The outfit I wore made me look like a whale, but it fit. Now the outfit is tight on me. No more dilly-dallying for me.
I'm 266 today which is, according to the little Wii voice, obese. All I know is I would love to be in a size 18 by Memorial Day weekend. Maybe 16 by July Fourth and a size 14 for Labor Day Weekend. I'm wearing a 22 pants/20 top right now. Are my goals realistic do ya think? I haven't worn a 14 for so long that I don't know what my weight would be! I remember one thing - in my senior year of college I weighed 167 pounds and wore a size 8!!! I don't think I will ever see 8 again but that's okay.
