Today was my last weigh-in before my birthday. The moment of truth to find out if I had succeeded in my (admittedly very aggressive) short-term goal of losing 10 pounds by my birthday, which is Monday.
I had a good/average loss this week, but missed my short term goal by 0.2 pounds.
Still. A loss of 9.8 pounds in five weeks is nothing to sneeze at.
I'm contemplating my next short term goal. My youngest daughter turns 1 in a month, and I'm 5 pounds away from being in the next "decade." I am considering making that my goal, but 5 pounds is 4 weeks is a lot to ask from me. I'm trying to weigh my emotional stability of being aggressive and seeing how close I can get against me setting goals and never really reaching them.
WWYD? Be aggressive and probably miss? (But maybe not by that much?) Or be conservative and choose a different goal?
