Goal date fast forwarded....yikes!!
| Tue, 06-19-2007 - 10:42pm |
My dear husband called me today from the office... Looks like our long distance visit to the family will take place the first week in July - instead of mid August! I was hoping to be down about 15-20 lbs by the time our August trip arrived! That was one of my 'mini-goal' dates I have been striving to work towards and have been keeping in the forfront of my mind. Any ideas as to how I can drop 20lbs in two weeks (without losing a limb, or something else severe - LOL!)??!! I guess realistically, I may be able to squeeze 5lbs out of me before we get there. I really wanted to be far more 'beach ready' than I am, or will be in 14 days. UGH!!! I didn't think this would bother me so much, as they've seen me fat before (for years in fact), this won't be any different. I guess I had invisioned what I wanted to look like the next time we all see each other, and it's just not going to happen. I am going to pick another mini-goal date - our wedding anniversary- it's almost around the same time we should have originally gone on our long distance trip. I don't want to lose my focus or my determination, so I am going to see this as a wee bit of a mental setback and move on forward to my healthier future. Next year - I will WOW them....:)

I know you were only kidding that you want to lose 20 pounds in a few weeks....right?!? ;-p
Yes - I was kidding - albeit wishful dreaming - when I mentioned wanting to lose 20lbs in 2 weeks....:) I'm sure I could gain it, given the opportunity!
Following my plan 100% would be key, as that is the only way I can get the biggest bang for my buck! I can't see myself kicking my exercise up another notch as I am already working out a minimum of 5 times a week.
Thanks for the encouragement! As I've said before - this time I am going all the way!!
