What are your Mini Goals?
Hi All,
I just wrote down my mini goals in my journal and I thought it would be cool to see if anyone else has significant 'magic numbers' too. SO, who wants to post Mini Goals? I wanted to put them up so I know what my milestones are along the road. I want to picture myself achieving these numbers. See it happening. Make it real. :agree: So, here we go... MINI GOALS #1:159 Out of the highest decade I've ever been in, gulp. #2:149 Back in the 140s #3:138 Pre-preg (and also, 1 yr after w breast feeding) weight #4:125 Wedding weight #5:121 University weight #6:119 Back in the "teens" #7: 116 GOAL! (Weight I was when I moved here 15 yrs ago, and high school weight more than 25 yrs ago...Can that possibly be right??) Gotta' Name It to Claim It! :lol: Those are MY NUMBERS! an' I'm uh goin' to get 'em back!!! They're miiiine! (not sure why I turned all wild west, there...) What about you? |
I've met my first two mini goals. Here's what I'm working on now:
MINI GOALS: #3: 208.8--officially out of the obese categary! #4: 206.4---31.2 gone--HALF WAY THERE #5: 199.8--ONEDERLAND #6: 190.2--THREE QUARTERS THERE! #7l: 187.0--FIFTY POUNDS GONE! #8: GOALl: 174.6--GOAL--62.4 gone--into the 'normal" range |
Cool, JAnn! :)

Let's see. It's difficult as I have bounced up and down like a jack-in-the-box on crack over the years.
Goal #1: 235-married weight (-20lbs) Goal #2: 220-college weight (-35 lbs) Goal #3: 208-no longer obese (also -47 lbs, just over halfway) Goal #4: 199-ONEDERLAND (-56) Goal #5: 170-weight when Hubs and I met and started dating (-85) My last goal is 165. That's my final, but we'll see how that looks when I get closer. The ideal weight for my height (just under 5' 10") is anywhere between 130 and 170. We'll see... I just realized that I'm so pathetic that I don't even get to lose 100lbs...oh well 90 will have to do. That's plenty enough. :lol: |
I've hit my first 2 goals so now I'm at
loose 6 lbs per month fully plan to hit 145 lbs by the New Year ;) I just hit 180 lbs at the end of the month and that was a mini goal too and we went out on a date. Every 10 lbs will get me another date :) The monthly 6 lbs will get me giggling and dancing around the bathroom naked. |

I had to laugh at the dancing around the bathroom. Today I hit 210.8 and made hubby come in and look at the scale. It felt like I would never get out of 211. |
I know my signature differs but this is what I'm really trying for:
Goal #1 240 By the end of July Goal #2 230 End of Aug Goal #3 220 End of Sept. I'm doing a lot of travelling in October and my goal is to fit better in the airplane seat! Goal # 4 200 by the new year and no longer in the obese BMI |
My mini goals were:
Fit into my motorcycle trousers OH had bought me 4 years ago. Get down to the weight I was when we first met. Hit the weight for my fight. Now that they have been done, I am not sure what my mini goals are. They now seem like maxi goals. Like: say hello to my abs, or finally make it down to a hip waist ratio that takes me out of the high risk group. I shall have to have a think :-) |
I used the "decades", Onederland was the biggie, and the two BMI cut-offs. First when I was no longer "obese" and final goal was to be "healthy" by my doctor's guidelines. I am a few pounds over "healthy" now and mad at myself, so that is my goal again.

Very cool, everyone. Eyes on the prize :hyper: LOL

Thanks, I did not exactly eat on plan the night of our "date" and I'm not working on 7 lbs of water retention. At least I'm starting to feel better, I couldn't sleep, tired all dang day and just feelt like crap. I got back into ketosis last night and I slept better and feel all around better this morning. that pesky water weight is hanging around though :lol: GLoals, we must all stick with out goals! |
I haven't set many mini goals. I had a few though I guess:
- Get under 100lbs to lose - Get under 300lbs - Be able to buy clothes in the regular clothes section (not big/tall) - Reach 240lbs When I hit 240 I'm gonna readjust how much further I want to go, but I'm thinking a least another 20-25 pounds. So far I've reached 3/4 of those goals. Just bought a 2x shirt and size 40 pants, down from 4/5x and 48/50 pants! |

That's the good and bad of digital scales. Every pound feels like ten pounds. I just now got out of 190. I know our bodies don't know what number is on the scale but it seems like when you are faced with that last tenth of a pound, your body behaves like a kid trying to get the nerve to jump off a high dive. That first moment you break the 'water' of the next lowest pound, it really does feel like the victory of mastering a new diving skill and the refreshing water after a long hard slog to get there. |
