Goal Setting and thoughts of the future.....

Morning!

Today is day 5 of my 12 week challenge and of course I had a sneaky-peek on the scales this morning.... already 700gms down! I know I shouldn't weigh too often, but I just wanted to check it out!

My concern is this: I am always fantastic at the beginning of a new weight loss effort (aren't we all?) but I'm worried I will fall off the wagon before the 12 weeks is up. I think we have a halfway point check in, even that seems far away. Need to make sure I keep motivated - I would love to be in the early 90's by the end of the challenge!

Time to do a re-visit of my mini goals:
Goal Weight End of Feb - 102 (Got it! 101.5)
5kg lost this year - 101
5% lost this year - 100.7
Under 100kg
Goal Weight End of March - 98
10kg lost this year - 96
10% lost this year - 95.4

I love goal setting, and I love seeing completed goals (I'm also a checklist person at work), it gives me a sense of completion.

Still toying with what my ultimate goal weight will be. According to BMI I should be under 74kg. The lowest I have been in my adult life is 78. I was reading through my blogs from around that time, and I was so excited about being a 70's girl. Now I just want to get into the 80's haha! I'll get to 85 and decide from there, but I don't think 74 is realistic for me (especially after 2 kids).

Slightly long ramble this morning - obviously had a lot on my mind!

Next Mini Goal: 5kg - 0.5kg to go
