All right, folks! Did you love the Valentine's Day goal thread? Time to goal up again!
SPD is only about a month away, so I know for me I want to keep it pretty sensible and doable. Though I'd love to say I aim to get down to 120, I know that's a little scary, so I'll say 121 instead. Three pounds in about four weeks, I can totally do that.
Who else is closing in on some magic number they'd like to see before the wearin' o' the green?
Unfortunately, I fell hard off the wagon in the last almost week or so (due to an injury that really derailed my dependence on working out). My goal for St. Patricks' Day is to get back down to the 164 that my ticker says. Today is my first day back on plan. I just need one good day to get this body back on track. I plan to take a break from working out until my body heals and my goal is not to depend on exercise to manage my relationship with food. I'm going to do my best to stay focused. One way I do that is by meditating three times a day. Sounds hokey, but it really helps me. I started up again this morning and I already feel a whole lot better! Thanks for setting up this challenge!
I'm aiming for 152. Less than 10 pounds, I know I can do more than 5; but I don't want to aim for ten when I haven't made it there yet. Just gotta keep working hard to get there!
CW: 158

Krampus, I feel your pain. I'm hoping this kind of a challenge will help us both. I really appreciate your support on the chicks in control group. I've been embarrassed to update my situation since I always seem so determined and then I don't make it. However, tonight, I feel it's different. This time, I mean it!
Well, I pretty much love signing up for challenges and never make my goal so I am a bit reluctant to have that happen AGAIN. That said, I will be seeing friends on March 19th for a St Patty's party and already had a goal in mind. I won't have seen a lot of these people since NYE and that night I weighed about 139/140.
Today I am 138...I wanted to see 132 by St. Patty's but now it seems aggressive...so I am going to relax that to "under 135." That means a pound a week for the next month, hope I can do it.
When is St. Patrick's Day? I haven't celebrated it in years! It's about a month away? I will go for "in the 120's" for SPD. I would love to see 128 by mid March. That's about 5 pounds.
OK, on V-day I was 141.6 My dh bought me a box of choccies and some Amaretto as part of my pressie. The chocs are gone already, and the Amaretto is going down, but amazingly I was at 141.4 this morning.
But I hope to maintain this week with my goodies, and lose 3.4 pounds over the following 3.5 weeks to St Patty's Day. It would be 3.5 but my scale only weighs in 0.2 increments. So my goal is 138.2.
St. Patrick's Day Goals!
