New goals....adjustments are part of life...

so i moved my monthly goal weigh in to the 2nd saturday of the month because every first saturday i was missing my mark even though the saturday before i was right on track...seems even my "non" period affects my body so i made the adjustment...had a goal of 199 for December 11th and was right there the week before at 201 BUT then something happened and i was back up to 204...i have now readjusted my goal for 199 by December 25th and then each 2nd saturday going forward accordingly....

here are my goals for the upcoming months....looking for a loss of only 1lb a week...i can do this and i will.....

12/25/10 - 199 - finally below 200...make an appt to see the plastic surgeon who did my breast reduction in 2000 to discuss what i should do and where i should be to consider getting the tummy tuck i have always wanted....not necessarily doing the surgery anytime soon, i have just always wanted to see how much of the work i need to complete before doing it....this has been my ULTIMATE goal since i started this journey in january 2008.....

1/8/11 - 197 - firmly in the 100s - still going down baby

2/12/11 - 192 - inching my way closer to the 180s....

3/12/11 - 188 - out of the 190s and safely into the 180s.....my kids have never seen me this small that they would remember...i got down to 187??? when i was on Jenny Craig 2 yrs after having my son but didnt stay there very long and he was under 2 so he doesnt remember that mom...

4/9/10 - 184 - securing my spot as the skiniest i have been since my "adult" life began...i made it to the high 180s when i did jenny craig and/or WW sometime in the last 10 years but i obviously didnt stay there very long...this will be the absolute smallest my husband has ever seen me...

5/14/11 - 179 - yup bye bye 180s - hello - 170s....truly the smallest i have been since early 20s late teens????

6/11/11 - 175 - wow i'm actually gonna be in the mid 170s by the time summer rolls around!!!! i will also officially be only OVERWEIGHT..no longer OBESE according to the bmi calculator...

7/9/11 - 171 - low 170s for our trip to maine???? my sister hasnt seen me that small in forever....

8/13/11 - 166 - down into the 160s by the time my son heads back to school to start 1st grade...

9/10/11 - 162 - firmly set in the low 160s

10/8/11 - 158 - happy early birthday to me - you are now in the 150s - wooohooo girl.....almost 100lbs lost since you started this journey...

11/12/11 - 154 - a week or so after my 8th wedding aniversary and i'll weigh 60lbs less than my wedding day....that will feel amazing...officially 99.87lbs GONE forever...

12/10/11 - 150 - yeah i think i might have been in middle school when i weighed this?? maybe early high school....

1/14/12 - 145 - so i had my jaw wired shut when i was a junior in high school as part of my orthodontia....i lost 30+/-lbs in 10wks because of it...i think i ended up at 145???? the memory is fuzzy but that weight sticks in my head...regardless i only got there cause of circumstance and not hard work....sooooo this time when i start the new year in 2012 it will be ALL ME.....this would put me right at the high end of the "HEALTHY" BMI range....i would be out of the obese and overweight categories forever....

2/11/12 - 140-150 - working on maintenance - i believe my ultimate goal is to have a 10 pound range of weight that i am comfortable at...i will continue to workout and eat right and work very hard toward maintaining my HEALTHY new life...
