New goal weight

[kristieshannon 1,569]

After talking with my surgeon and PCP I’ve set what I think is my final goal weight. Originally we all decided 155, which was a bit over “normal” BMI. I’ve now dropped to 149 and am feeling really good. I’ve set my “final” goal at 143. This will put me at exactly half of my starting weight! Not sure why, but that feels like a significant number and feels like a perfect goal. I’m hoping to reach it by 8/13, which will be my 2 yr sleeve anniversary. Here’s to 6 more lbs to go and then starting the maintenance process!

My immediate goal is 150, hoping to reach stage 2 goal of 145 and maintain around 145-150. I’m 7 lbs from my immediate goal so I’m trying to stay motivated and keep working on it 💪🏾
