EX:
Name: Alu_Rathbone
Starting Weight: 250 lbs
Previous Weight: 240 lbs
Week 3: 235 lbs
This is just an example of what we could have listed. I know the weight won't come off that quickly!! It's just an example.
Plus we have this thread for encouragement!!
Ok, gotta tell ya, not putting my weight on there. LOL. Amount lost is okay, but not the WHOLE thing. Wah!!!
You don't have to! lol Its jsut the example i was using...
We could do it as...
Goal Weight Loss: 20 lbs
Previous Loss towards Goal: 2 lbs
Total Loss to Date: 4 lbs
Something like that... no one has to put her actual weight... We can set a six month goal of weight loss... lets see for the six months you want to lose up to 30 lbs... then we track it each week. If you reach that weight... then you can stay at that... and maintain it till the end of six months (or longer since that is the actual goal) or set a another 5 to 20 lbs... depending on how long it is till the end of the six month period.
I know I have about 100 pounds to lose... but I'm not going to set that as a six month goal... thats insane and I'm not a biggest loser contestant! But I could set mine at 50 lbs... I do tend to lose weight rather easily when eating right... and exercising...
What you can do at home is write the weight on the calender day you weigh your self... don't put lbs... this way others will not know what the number is for... only you will...
(sorry I tend to think too much) ;)
