One more question-goal weight
I've got that same part telling me that I'm being ridiculous in even trying
this again. I want that part to shut up. So I'm going to try it one step at a time. It joined in chorus with the "you're never going to find a decent job so don't bother trying" gremlin. Usually when I think I'm being ridiculous, I want to stuff my face with empty calories. Tonight's response to stuffing my face was to measure out some chips and salsa and to try that first. That wasn't enough so I grabbed a pinch of marinated ginger. That wasn't doing much either so I got a a huge bowl of spring mix, 3oz tomatoes, 1 oz peppers, cukes, and 2 tbsp of salad dressing. I'm addressing the "want sweet" desire with some bubble gum. Still better that what is lurking in the freezer in the dark corners. I don't have to stop all the bad habits, just tweek 'em enough to keep going to the next day and not turn them into bad decisions. Julie "Prairie Roots" wrote in message ... When I started, I set my goal weight at 157, not as low as the high end of WW range, but certainly ambitious for me. As I settled into the program and realized that thin and healthy is how I want to be and this way of eating is how I want to live, I lowered my goal weight to the high end of WW goal. Now that I'm within 15 lbs of reaching it, I'm beginning to think I can get down to 130. I won't decide until I've hit my WW goal. It's been since the mid 1970s since I weighed under 160. I weighed 140 all through high school, 20 lbs overweight according to my doctor at the time. In other words, I've never weighed 130 as an adult. Some part of thinks it might be possible. Even as another part of me thinks I'm being ridiculous. Of course, that same part of me doesn't believe I've come as far as I have.

When you set your target, do you go by your own goal or is the chart weight assigned to you? I'm not really confident that I can get to the chart assigned weight for my height. I've never been that weight. I can't imagine it or picture myself that way. Julie |
