Sleeved. 1/4/14

My goal is to get rid of 80# i figure if i can "average" a -4# weekly loss i can reach my goal in 20 weeks. ( That's -16# Per month)

I know it will drop fast at first...then slow. . Even stall but if i can focus on the averages maybe i won't panic.

Does this sound unreasonable ?

I have other goals... to walk a flight of steps and still breathe at the top.

To tie my shoes and not have to hold my breath.

To be able to get down on the floor to play games with my grandchildren. ..and to get back up unassisted.

To fit into my size 8/10 wardrobe i have held on to for too long.

To walk/run a 5K with my daughter and her family for the first time ever.

Thanks for all of you that are here with me and for unconditionally supporting each other.

It's good to set short term goals. Sounds like a good plan. Just stick to the rules, be patient & you will be pleasantly surprised. Good luck!!!!
