Being Realistic...

What does this mean?
Right now, it means I have to accept the fact that there is a long road ahead of me. I have a minimum 100 pounds to lose. 148 pounds to get back to where I was when I quit smoking. Quitting smoking is just a marker, not the entire reason I gained so much weight. I gained the weight cause I ate too much. I got lazy.



Todays Weight - 278
Current Goal Weight - 130 pounds

148 pounds to lose.
2 years and 10 months to lose the weight, at a rate of 1 pound per week.

Plotted Milestones -
Times may.. WILL ... vary..

5% Body weight Loss - 13.9 pounds - 264 weight

100 Pound Loss - 178 Weight
September 25, 2018

50% Weight Loss at 139 pounds if I continue.

July, 2019
130 weight



178 is a decent spot to be.
If I make it to 130 - I would have passed 139, which would be 50% of my total starting weight.

Numbers, Numbers Numbers...
Documentaries, Books, Forums

My body is now my focus.
My health is now my focus.

I consider how long ago 1999 was. Thinking it was going to be the biggest party of our lifetimes to hit the year 2000. Then 2005 came. Then 2010.

2 years.. 10 months..

That's the anticipated time this journey will take.. with one pound per week weight loss...

It'll pass by in the blink of an eye...

18 September 2016

Down 6.2 pounds from my original weigh-in with WW last week.

S.M.A.R.T.

This is what the weekly meeting was about at WW.
It felt both good and bad... Good because it made me see that there is no way I'm going to hit my goal in a year.. Bad because it made me realize there is no way I'm going to hit my goal in a year..

SMART

Specific - Details!! Why am I losing weight? To fit into smaller clothes.. To be able to have a lighter load while I'm running??

Measurable - By Miles or minutes or pounds or sizes, MEASURE and stick to it.

Attainable - So, is fitting into smaller clothes attainable? Of course it is. Will I ever be a size 2... no... but I can get pretty close...

Realistic - I wanted to be half my size in a year.. This.. is not realistic.. I have to set realistic goals for myself..

Time -- So I now accept the fact that it will probably take me slightly over two years to do this in a nice healthy way.. I'm going to set the calendar.. and make a plan for that month....


And here we go :)
