Goals for the Holidays?

I find the only way I make consistent progress is to set goals and hold myself accountable. Has anyone given any thought as to where they want to be on their journey come Thanksgiving? Myself? I'd like to be under 250 lbs. Wearing pants with a 40 waist or less, and lifting weights at levels I was at 10 years ago. Anyone else with some goals they'd care to share? DD

I'd really like to see a 1 on that scale. other than that, not really.

I would really like to be at 100 lbs loss by my wedding anniversary, Oct 31, putting me at 222 hopefully. I haven't thought about thanksgiving and last year was the first year I celebrated xmas in over 15 years (long story) so I hadn't give that any thought yet either, lol. I did find out today that Marie Callender's sells "no sugar added" pumpkin pie as as seasonal item, but could not find nutritional info on it. It makes me want to find a sugar free recipe for punkin' cheesecake, yum yum. I have a list of other goals on my profile (scroll down to the bottom) if anyone's interested. Inky

I'm definitely shooting for 100 lbs lost by then. Maybe even goal weight! I really like my weight loss pattern but figure it will slow down sometime soon. The chart shows a typical loss of 6 lbs a month. My next goal is to have a "1" before my weight by Oct 1.

My goal is to be in the 190's by then. I would really love to be at my goal of 140 by my one year surgiversary. Joni

Inky, I have a pumkin cheesecake recipe that I made for Thanksgiving a couple of years ago when I was doing the "low carb" thing. I don't have it with me right now because I am getting ready to start work, but when I get home I can forward it to you. It was pretty good. As far as my goal, I want to be able to go Christmas shopping and enjoy it instead of thinking how tired I would get or my knees would start to hurt.

am on the lose 100 pounds goal but I want to lose that by october I have 30 pounds to go. Thanksgiving humm have to think about that! oh how about to actually be in smaller clothes 70 pounds and still wearing my clothes to me is insane!! dee

I'd like to be in the 170's by then. That would be around 100 lbs. lost for me too!

I am goal-phobic so I'm not going to set one for weight at that time. However, I guess I would like to have a Thanksgiving where I am not exhausted and dying of foot pain from standing up and cooking for hours. I have a feeling this goal will be met!

I haven't thought that far ahead honestly Thanksgiving is going to be a difficult holiday for me this year so I have tried to avoid it. Since I am currently 193 I guess I would like to loose 20lbs between now and then and see 173lb by the end of November. I have 185 as my end of August goal so if I get to that I will be well on my way to 173 by November.
