I have approached this entire weight loss with following a very specific plan that I knew would result in a healthier life regardless of the number of the scale. So I rarely weigh in and have had no deadline to reach any particular weight.
It's worked great. For the first time in my life I have lost significant amount of weight at a rate of @6 lbs. per month.
Now I've gotten it into my head that I want to wear a very specific dress on a very specific event in late August. I suspect that 10 more lbs will have that dress fitting nicely, and that's certainly very likely what weight I will be at my August weigh in but it worries me a bit. I can remember every previous weight loss attempt marking out on a calendar what I "should" weigh at points in the future and of course crashing and burning when I got behind on where I wanted/expected to be.
Suddenly the girl who has always chimed in about weighing only once a month wants to hop on the scale every day. So far have resisted that urge but I'm astonished how putting a date on my plan has really thrown my mental game.
Anyone else have a deadline that messed with their head?
