Goals

I don't think I've ever told anyone my weight goal. I continue to say that I "don't have a weight goal," but the reality is that I would love to weigh under 200 pounds. The smallest I've ever been was 160 pounds and I was extremely healthy then. I had a tiny waist, but curves in all the right places. I was on the flag team at my high school and had dropped about 40 pounds one year to that weight. I had amazing calves, great shoulders, and you could balance a breakfast tray on my butt. I would love to be that small again, but realistically I just want to be 199. I'm hoping to lose 2 pounds per week to achieve this by Christmas. I have stayed fairly on track, I am a little behind, but I feel much better than I have in a long time. My highest weight was not long after I finished nursing school--one of the most stressful times in my life--and I weighed 315. I'm now down to 291.8, which feels amazing. My first goal is to lose 31.5 pounds, currently I've lost 23.2. Just 8.3 more to go before I let myself get a pedicure!
