Major Goal Advice Needed...

Here is the deal. I just found out that I am going away to Florida..FOR FUN...and I have exactly eight weeks (seven weigh ins) to prepare weight wise. I really need help setting a reasonable, attainable, and of course challenging goal to get me from here to there. At my last weigh in I was down a total of 38.4 pounds. That put me weighing 206 pounds. Obviously, I want to be living in one-derland by then, but I really want to set my mind to making the next eight weeks really count!

Any ideas?

Comment by Steph on July 7, 2008 at 5:10pm: I am not sure what your average has been so far but I would think 1.5 lbs per week a good goal. That would put you at 195.5. or maybe 2 lbs a week but i think that is hard - well, it is for me anyway. Either way, you should feel wonderful about the 38.4 you have all ready lost.
