Love the quote. Your goals seem reasonably attainable. It doesn't seem like you will go crazy. I write this because I had made many far reaching goals in my excitement, and of course I did not get all the way there. I was supposed to be 100 lbs slimmer in my mind by this Christmas. Then the poop happens...
ReplyDeleteLet's do this!
I admire that you have your book plans. I am slacking on that doing an e book, but Santa's helper is poor. Kids all get a greater part of what I spend. I need to crack down and at least buy an outfit! And a bike lock.
YOu know, you're one of those people I so want to see at goal weight. YOu're young, smart, energetic,a vibrant soul, and I want you to get the most out of your youth/life. Yes, make it, make it. I wanna see pics of UberAfter You!
ReplyDeleteI had a 50 inch waist and 60 inch hips at 299 pounds, so I think 299 lbs and your estimates might be dang spot on. :) Of course, an exercising 299 will be fitter than my couch potato 299 was. :)
On we go!
Good luck, Nanette. I hope you reach your goals. They are all very reasonable and well within your grasp. I will be cheering you on. :)
ReplyDeleteaww you guys are quick, and awesome!
ReplyDeleteI tried to be reasonable on the estimates, but I had no idea I'd be that close! ha! I'm super pumped about this next challenge. I really suspect that my birth control was interfering with some of my weight loss. So I'm going off of it - no worries. Swearing off the sex stuff until I move.
Bluezy, I hope you make it down 100 lbs by next christmas. I was reading someone's goals of losing 10lbs a month. I like that idea. It's my aim high goal in my head. But honestly, I'll be happy if I can drop to 299 by the end of this challenge.
Looking forward to reading about you reaching these goals! I'm sure you'll do great.
ReplyDeleteLet's do it!!
Hi Nanette! If I read Mir's post correctly I will be your buddy!!! I think your goals are awesome and I know you are going to do great! I will send my contact info as soon as I know for sure I'm reading things correctly.
ReplyDeleteExcellent goals and ideas. You will do amazing things Nanette, I know you will.
ReplyDeleteI'll be back to check on you, I wish you the very best.
Take care and have a blessed weekend.
Good luck on this challenge. I know you can do it and I'll be rooting from the sidelines for you!
ReplyDeleteThanks for your continued support during these past few weeks when I most needed it. :)
All sounds very attainable so you got this! I like that you are going to be trying new recipes, I've been doing that too:-). I hope you share them!
ReplyDeleteDetermination will get you to your goals. Proving to yourself that you CAN be the one in charge around the food is huge. You have your "why"; you are a part of a good challenge; you have the support of kindred spirits, and you know what to do. 2012 is going to be your year don't you think?
ReplyDeleteIt's me again buddy! I was re-reading your post and your quote is so true! This is not about the challenge but about you, your body, your health, your happiness! We can do this! Let's get to a place where we are not perfect but pretty damn close and we are happy "living in our own skin".
ReplyDeleteHow do you want to do the contact info? Email, blog comment, phone?!? I'm good with all just let me know!
ReplyDeleteHow was your New Year's Eve? What plans do you have for this week challenge wise?
