so i realized that i have all these monthly goals and then each month on the 2nd saturday when i either make the goal, pass the goal or fall short of the goal i end up adjusting my numbers going forward every month until my final goal weight of 145.....
it's getting rather annoying....i'm looking back to when i really started tracking my goals and i have lost anywhere between 0 and 6 lbs between monthly weighins.....i have set my goal at losing 1 lb a week for a total of 4-5lbs a month depending on the number of weeks between the 2nd saturdays of each month....
someone suggested making "broader" goals to help with the fluctuation from month to month....sooooo, i have again adjusted my goals....i still have the monthly goals set up in my spreadsheet but am really trying to HIT these:
St. Patty's Day GOAL: 189 (64.8lbs lost)
4th of July GOAL: 173 (80.8lbs lost)
39th Bday (10/13) GOAL: 157 (96.8lbs lost)
New Year's 2012 GOAL: Under 150 (103.8lbs lost)
Valentine's 2012 GOAL: working on Maintaining 140-150 (103.8-113.8lbs lost)
not sure why i feel the need to constantly be adjusting and looking at future goals but i'm a numbers tracker so i like to see things in spreadsheets and if they just don't "add" up for me visually i have to "fix" them.....hope these more broad goals help me stay the course to being very close to completing this journey by this time next year....
