You ...Don't think about the long road ahead of you. You will go crazy. I am learning to break it down into manageable goals. But it's hard to just break it down into every 5 pounds or something, it seems pointless. Try to pick mini-goals that mean something to you.<BR/>I'm aiming for 239 as my first one because it would be below my lowest weight i remember (242) and into a new "decade" (the 230's). After that I'm going to aim for 225 because that's what it says on my driver's license ;) Then for 199 so that I will be officially in Onederland! Then for 175 because that is my goal that allows me and my family to go to Hawaii!!!!! Then to 150 because that is the weight that will make me feel NORMAL. And finally, ultimately, 138 to be in the top of the range for a healthy weight for my height.<BR/>WHEW... it is a lot of goals when you think of them altogether. It can be really intimidating. But by breaking it down into mini goals - and not just any mini goals but ones that matter to you - it gives you something concrete and more attainable to be working towards.*Christie*https://www.blogger.com/profile/03836055984193279246noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31145842.post-1160064098132976832006-10-05T09:01:00.000-07:002006-10-05T09:01:00.000-07:00Sometimes it's so overwhelming to think of that bi...Sometimes it's so overwhelming to think of that big number. As of now I'm working on a 25lb loss as my short term goal and I'll move on from there. It seems to be helping me.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
