Honestly, I'm more likey to set a weekly goal than a target type one. I've had issues with procrastination in the past, and I'm afraid if I set a sort of "10 pounds by Midwinter" type goal, I'd be like, "meh, it's only August, I can lose that later..."
So in theory, my goal is to try and treat myself well nutritionally and physically every day and enjoy things like chocolate, fried potatoes occasionally (once or twice a week) and in small portions. This has worked pretty well, until recently. Recently I've been faltering and that's why I'm wondering if a more concrete goal- 500g a week, or something- might be the kick in the pants that I apparently need?
Whatever goal you set helps you. Sorry for my late delay. I have been away for awhile. Spending personal time away. I look forward to seeing your results.
Ok I am at 226 now and not where I wanted to be right now but I know there are fall backs in all projects. I am goingot push harder for the 215 goal in 2 weeks from today.
Ok I didn't make my first goal. So that means i have to lose 25 pounds by Samhain to keep on track. That is just under 4 pounds a week. Might be hard to do, but I will try.
Ok Lost 3 more pounds this week!! So I am now 223. I have another goal of 3 pounds this week by next weigh in. really trying to eat better and need to work out.
Make one of your goals a work out 3 times a week - find something that works... what toning type exercise are you doing...
have you seen the you tube walk videos with Leslie Sampson I think it is a little cardio based but good for the legs..
and light weights are cool...
good luck with the walk around the neighbour hood - you tube search walk workouts gets some interesting workouts.. some easy and basic others a bit more intense
I am still 223 this week. I maintained but... I LOST 2 INCHES SINCE I STARTED!! I lost an inch on my belly and 1 on my waist. My problem areas. I am so excited. Now... That is a major encouragement. I need more. It's like an addiction now. lol Stay Tuned. Who knows what will follow.
Ok so I have been fighting a locking back for a month now. Getting worse and worse every week. I have an appointment with the primary care manager in the morning for my High Blood Pressure. So making sure they check on my back too.
Davisag Welcome back! Glad your back is feeling better. There are some great challenges that started 02/01/17 on the chicks up for a challenge board. It's not too late to jump in on one of those for some added motivation.
