I've been hovering under my next weight loss goal most of the week. But I feel like I am reluctant to actually crossing it off. That I've been losing so slowly, maybe I will gain it back and then won't I feel defeated to go backwards on my goals. Is this silly? I am going to wait until tomorrow, since it is my official weigh-in day. If I am still under the goal, no matter how close to it I am, I'm going to cross it off.
The goal is 50% of my excess weight lost. What a milestone! I am/will be half way there to what I should lose. What ideally I want to lose, though I think getting down to 154 lbs is a little hard to imagine. Wouldn't I actually have to be underweight to reach 154 lbs to account for all the excess skin hanging on me?
I do hope someday to have skin removed. But that cost money, so for the possible future. For now we are still paying on the gastric bypass surgery.
Also, speaking of goals, I have not been rewarding myself upon reaching goals. Not for the past 2-3 anyway. I feel like I don't know what to get myself. I don't need any clothes. I will not make food a reward. We can't afford to go anywhere right now. I don't "need" anything. So maybe I will just save up the idea of the rewards until there is something bigger I really want. Then I can tell myself I deserve it for all my hard work.
