Set Your WL Goals HERE!

HAVE A GOAL YOU WANT TO REACH? Post it here!

I'm a firm believer in setting goals.

So here goes mine:

Surgery weight was 240

Current weight is 184

Short term goal 170 by August 3rd

Long term goal 140 by November 14

To reach my goals I'm limiting my caloric intake between 1,000 - 1,200 daily. Drinking more Water, increasing my Protein and my workouts to 5 times per week. If I can get in 6 days I will. 3 days I'll be doing my C25K work out plan. And the other 2-3 days I'll do weights and abs.

Who's next??

Banded May 23,2012

Starting weight 217

Current weight 189

August 31 goal 180

December 31 goal 150

Long term goal is 125

Still new to the lapband so if I find my goals to be a little unrealstic I may adjust them but at the same time I want something to strive for. I also havent talked with my doctor yet about a good weight loss goal so that may change.
