Weight Loss 2014 – The One with the new goal
I’ve decided to scrap the Weight Loss 2014 challenge I originally set myself. Why? Because I am crap. I haven’t tracked, I haven’t been conscious and I have made all the wrong choices.
Today is Monday, a new week and I’ve decided to set myself a more attainable target. Why have a target I feel I can’t meet… it’s hardly going to inspire me, is it?
So today is the first day. The first day that will see me through to the end of this challenge. I will be starting afresh. Taking each day as a separate entity, and concentrating on my new goal:
Get to 17st 5lb (or 243lb, or 110.2kg).
I have reset all my charts and I’m ready! My goal is roughly 2st 8lb away (36lb or 16kg).
What is so important about 17st 5lb? That is my pre-third-pregnancy weight. I last weighed it on 17th June 2013.
To help me get started here are a few little goals… they aren’t necessarily short term, nor long term but they will cover different areas of healthy living.
WEIGHT: Get below 30lb to lose.
FOOD: Make conscious decisions about what I eat.
Exercise: Try a 20 minute walk at least once this week.

I cannot focus on big goals either… I only ever look as far ahead as my next Friday night weigh-in!
I just focus on getting to my next half stone, or next 'down a number' (stones on the scales). It's so overwhelming otherwise.
Good luck with your new goal. Cheering you on!

I'm looking ahead to get below 30lb to lose… It's 6.2lb away, so it will take me 3-4 weeks if I lose 2lb a week which is all I really need.
It is overwhelming… and I'm struggling. Moreso because it's the school holidays and my days are all upside down.
Thank you for the luck! 🙂
