I am on week 1 of 6 to 8 weeks of physical therapy for my feet and ankles. I want to use this time to get back on track with my weight loss as well as improve my pain levels and overall health.

I have a couple of things I am looking forward to.

~I want to lose enough weight to 'look better' (say 15 to 20 lbs) before I have to shed my winter coats and sweaters (literally) lol

~I want to lose down to about 135 before Summer, bc I have a closet full of the prettiest little summer dresses that fit me so nice at the weight year before last.

~Very short term I have a wedding to go to on March 16th, and that gives me about 6 weeks to lose at least 10 pounds and I have a couple nice dresses that fit me at that weight.

There's a wedding I want to attend in July. I want to fit into something spiffy for the occasion. I hope I can be around 200 by then.

Week 1 of my physical therapy went really well! My feet hurt quite a bit less than they did at the beginning of the week. As for my weight, even though my official weigh in isn't until Sunday, I have thus far lost 5 of the 8 pounds I gained last week.

Awesome thread!! I have to set lots of mini goals during my journey. It's the only way I can keep on track. I'm trying not to concentrate too much on the number on the scale.

Goal #1 250 thousand steps by valentines day (so close)
Goal #2 another 270 thousand steps by St. Patty's Day
Goal #3 TBD

My ultimate goal is to be 160 by my wedding day (6-22-13) and 150 by my honeymoon (9-7-13)

Good luck everyone! Can't wait to hear about your successes and special events!!

Today went awesome! Down 1.2, and I fit nicely into a 24w dress I bought at the beginning of January. Can't wait to little black dress shop!

I don't know about the rest of you, but the weekends can be tough for me. I'm not in my normal routine and a lot more temptations seem to crop up. So here's to an on plan weekend, keep your eyes on your prize!

I love this thread! I've definitely got a few things that I am counting down for!!

February 22- I leave for Mexico and Florida! I teach far up North in the NWT and only get out of my community twice a year. I had to have a beach vacation AND make that bachelorette party! I hope to be 20 lbs down by then! Currently 13 down!

July 1- I only see my friends and family twice a year as well, and this is the day! They will have seen me at my highest at 210 at Christmas, and then this mega-awesome reunion where I WILL be 155 or less- almost the lowest I've been since an adult! I can't wait to see pleasantly surprised faces this time!

Halloween- I will finally reach goal around here. Cheers to a sexy costume!

Thanks for the motivation!!!!!!

Agreed. I also really only see my husband on Sundays and Mondays. So it's easy to slip into "celebration" mode and make some less then awesome eating decisions.

I'm going to make a nice chicken piccata tonight though.
