Yesterday on my way home there was a little snow fall it made the roads a little slick nothing too bad. I did use that for an excuse not to head into the gym. I must go today.
Why is it people always want to know what my goal will be. If I hear one more time how much more do you want to loose.
It's like when you are dating someone, people ask when you getting married. Then when they do marry they want to know when you are going to have kids. Same concept.
The reason why this bothers me is because I don't have the answer. I have ideas but not definite number in mind. IS THIS BAD??
Listen I am not made to be a size 2... I will probably never been at a perfect BMI... I won't be competing for Canada's next top model.
However, I will be in onderland... I will fit in normal clothes.... I will be as close to healthy as I can be.

You know, I've always attached a number to this process. So, when I get to 150, I'll be where I want to be. But I think that that's part of my problem, mostly because I can never remember being anywhere close to that weight. Maybe that's what makes it hard to attain, in my mind. It's like saying "when I win the lottery...", sometimes. More and more I am trying to focus on the baby steps rather than trying to manage the big picture. I think it's a great idea to take it as it comes and be happy with what you're doing and where you are right now, because everything you're doing right now is a great accomplishment and shouldn't be overlooked in favour of focusing on an end goal.
I think that's a more healthy attitude to have about it. My goal is just based on what I was happy at before. I don't need to be a size 2 (or 6, or 8) to be happy. It's just mostly about feeling good in your own skin :)
There is absolutely nothing wrong with not having a goal weight in mind. Sometimes you have to focus more on the journey than the goal..know what I mean?
Keep doing what your doing and just set small goals for yourself (5 more pounds, 10 more pounds).
When you are at your goal...you will know!
I think that you've got the right idea. :o ) For some people, having a solid "goal" number is helpful. For other people, it is a hindrance. I'm one of those folks who isn't really looking for a solid number to fall on either.
I just found your site. you look great. the before and after pics are amazing. you should be very proud.
I don't have a goal either as of yet. I have 163 posted on my blog, since that's 100 lbs even. BMI says I should be 154, I suspect I'll feel okay at a higher weight than 163. I won't know until I'm there.
I don't talk numbers in 'real life'. When someone asks, I just say, "I'd rather not say." It's always been someone asking purely out of curiosity. It's none of their business!
