First goal complete! Forty pound club please.

Postby ascicles » April 14th, 2006, 6:08 am

When I started this diet, my first goal was to get to 330 pounds. It isn't exactly a low number, but it happens to be the maximum amount that my previous scale would reach, and the highest amount that I could find in scales at local department stores. It's quite frustrating to need something simple like that and be completely unable to find a proper choice.

I did manage to find a digital scale online that would weigh my properly...but that's a lot of effort for something so basic. Regardless, 330 was my first goal for that reason.

This morning, I'm at 329.5. This also puts me in the 40 pound club, since my starting weight was 370.

Next goal? 299 pounds.

I still have three weeks. I'm hoping to drop another 15 or so pounds before then :)

Ascicles,

You are doing so well! I'm so proud of you! You flew by me like i was standing still! And that makes me happy! I am glad you made your first mini-goal. My first two mini goals are 2 and 4 lbs away. You must be so happy! Here come the dancing bananas for you!

Thanks. I have a question though. I was looking at your ticker, and I can figure out the 4 lb. goal...but what is the two pound goal? 202 pounds seems like a strange goal number :)
