My mini goals

I've been having a look at some other weight watchers' blogs. Joey Brooks, from the WW forums, has a great site. She's now at her goal weight, and it's interesting to read how she got there. Particularly interesting is the Maintenance section of her site. That's been something I've been concerned about myself, how to stay at goal once I get there, and it's good to hear how it can be done from someone who knows.

Also a good read is Kimberlina's blog. She has her mini goals on the side of her blog, which is a great idea. I have my own mini goals too, so I thought I'd steal her idea and put them here. They're also on the sidebar, but I'll expand on them below.

Each pound lost is a goal in itself, though my first small goal was to reach my 5% goal of 11st 12lb. I'd achieved that by my birthday (29/04/10), when I weighed 11st 11lbs. My next goal was to drop a dress size (from size 18 down to 16), which I have also recently achieved. Next on the list was to lose a stone (get down to 11st 7.5lb), which I did just over three weeks ago.



Next on the list will be to get my waist down to 30-something inches. It's currently at 40", so hopefully I should manage that in a couple of weeks. (Ideally it will be below 32", as that is recommended as a healthy size.) After that will be to reach my 10% goal of 10st 10lb, which is 8.5lbs away at the moment. A couple of weeks after that, I should get halfway to goal. At that halfway point of 10st 7lb, I should be a size 14, hopefully in time for Christmas (or even in time for Halloween). Next on the list is to get my BMI down to 20-something (it's currently 32.6). Once I'm a size 14, it shouldn't be long before I get back into the pinstripe dress I wore on my boyfriend and I's second date, about four years ago. After that, the next mini goals are to be a size 12, and to reach my goal weight of 8st 7lb. I'd like to maybe get down to 8st after that, but I'll see how I feel when I get there ...
