I decided to change my goal weight today, rather than attain my initial goal of 20 lbs. and then start on a new goal.
I feel good about this decision. This means I am almost half way to my new goal.
I feel more genuine doing it this way. When I first started on this site, I wanted to put a manageable goal. Over the past few weeks, though, I have been really impressed with people that set one main goal and then work toward mini-goals. I don't want to see my color bar approaching "goal" weight when I always knew I needed to lose more than that initial 20 lbs.
So, with that in mind, my next short-term goal is to lose that first 20 lbs. (I have 6.5 lbs. to go) by my physical on June 13th. I set my first short-term goal to losing 12 lbs. by Easter (which was 11 weeks from when I started on Fat Secret). I reached that goal on the nose 2 days before Easter.
I am visiting my dad in L.A. and siblings in Monterey in 3 weeks, so I am really going to try to manage that 5 day trip as well as I've managed the holidays and my anniversary getaway.
Thanks for listening.

I think that is a wonderful idea! I love keeping mini goals in mind day to day as motivation, while not loosing sight of that light at the end of the tunnel goal ;-) I know you are going to do awesome during your trip!

sounds like you are doing well.. keep in mind our bodies were not designed for a constant fat loss.. to keep from lowering your metabolism - when you lose 10% of your goal weight it's a good idea to maintain that for at least a few months before trying for another 10%.. just food for thought :)

Courtneymsp, I am prepared for hitting a plateau at some point, but since I could conceivably have set my goal for 50 lbs., I am not terribly worried about losing that 30 lbs. I'm fine with the weight loss slowing down as I get closer to my goal. Anything beyond my initial 20 lb. goal is icing on the cake, for want of a better analogy.

CalynLZ, thanks for the encouragement! Thankfully, none of those family members I am visiting have terrible eating habits. I may eat right at the top of my RDI or even a little above on one or two of the days, but I know I can manage things.
