Is this a reasonable goal~ Christmas Goals

  • Hi all! I haven't posted for quite some time, please forgive me

    I was just wondering if it was a reasonable goal for me to lose 10 lbs by christmas?

    What are your Christmas goals?
  • Well personally i don't think its reasonable seeing you are so close to your goal weight..

    As for me Id be happy at 132!
  • with about 4 weeks until christmas, and you being so close to your goal weight, i'm not sure it would be possible or healthy.
    My christmas goal is 6 lbs, which would put me at 177lbs.
  • Hmm. My Christmas goal is to be 145... I saw 149.6 on the scale this morning, but I feel like that's a bit of a fluke.

    I feel like it's better to set yourself low goals, then congratulate yourself profusely when you BEAT them.
  • Thanks for the honest responses ladies! I hope that you can reach the goals you've set!

    Jelbb~ always love advice from a fellow canadian chicka I totally think you'll get to 145 by Christmas!
  • My plan is to lose 10 pounds before New Years and I started a couple days ago so I gave myself just under 45 days, which I hope is doable!

    I've been keeping really close count on my calories and doing the 30 day shred a lot more consistently, so I hope I get there!
  • It may be possible, but if you are doing it healthy (which I hope you are!) you will prob get close but not exactly. Esp when the holidays are sooo very hard to get through with a maintain let alone a loss. But if you are totally focused, then try your best and get as close to goal as possible. Good luck!
    My goal is about 7-8 lbs. If I get there, great.. if not, I know I gave it my best shot!
  • My goal is -7 pounds by Christmas. It is ambitious for me at this stage of the game. My weight loss is slowing. At full effort I am losing about 2 pounds each week. But I am okay with that.
  • 2 pounds a week is awesome! i think im losing about 1.8 every 2 weeks ! which im an VERY happy about.
  • You're so light already, it might take a lot of work to lose 10 pounds in a month. Good luck with whatever you goal is or becomes!

    This is EXACTLY what I do!!!
  • My goal is to lose 8 more pounds by New Year's Eve. That would be about 2 pounds a week, and I lose REALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLy slow, so I don't think I am even going to make that.
