Establishment of Weight-Loss Milestones.
297.5 lbs. (March 3, 2008): The 30 pound mark. If I lose 30 lbs., it means I am really serious about losing a lot of weight. Also, it will be the first time I weigh less than 300 lbs in approximately 5 years. Only 7.5 lbs to go before reaching this milestone.
280 lbs. (April 14, 2008): Amount I weighed in graduate school (more than 20 years ago) before going on a diet on which I lost 40 lbs. Hit a set point at 240 that I was defeated by. Determined not to lose a battle to a set point again. Also, amount I approximately weighed last time I went on a serious diet (8 years ago) when I also reached 240 lbs. and gave up trying to lose more after reaching a stubborn set point. After that, I gained all the weight back plus 47.5 lbs. Ugh!
240 lbs.(July 14, 2008): The enemy for the reasons stated above. Also, the lowest amount I can remember weighing at any time since college. Will be a victory to reach this weight, but also will mark the time that I morph into the TERMINATOR!
210 lbs. (September 22, 2008): My goal. Actually, I plan to end up a few pounds below this amount, but never exceed it again. As far as I can remember, this was what I weighed when I was born, and what I plan to weigh when I die. 100 years from now, of course.
