Hi Everyone,
I was just mapping it out and I noticed if I lost 1lb a week I could reach my goal around Halloween. I figure if I give myself a plant that I have until the end of November to reach my goal it would be do-able. That way I could (ideally) mantain my weight within a 5 lb span during the holiday months.
Last time I lost weight from taking a new medication I was so excited to get to 131 that once I saw the number I totally fell off the wagon and went crazy. The time before that the same thing happened at 125. I stopped weighing and thought I was done.
Now I realize I can never be done, that I need to be able to figure out how to mantain long term. My plan is to continue daily weigh in's for the rest of 2012 at least, then I may change to weekly. I am going to make sure that I also have a "Maintaing Zone" and a "Danger Zone"-where I reach past the number I will get rigorous with dieting to get back into my maintaing zone.
I have decided my maintaing zone is 115-120. 121+ will be my "Danger Zone".
Anyone else thought this out, or am I just psycho? Hah!
