Short term goals
I am typing today to announce a goal one that I have not publicly admitted to except to close friends,many years ago I used to weigh close to 400lbs, so I had begun to set short term goals in attempts to lose the weight. I have done so by changing my diet so far and just little activity due to health concerns. My goal has always been to get under 250lbs in order to be able to safely start a work out program at a local gym. On Monday I am proud to announce I have reached the goal weight of 248 in order to begin working out, and I start my first night of working out on Monday, and I can't wait. I have been trying for many years for just this goal and my final goal weight is to be 190lbs, for my body style and height that should be healthy with the muscle toning that I will be doing. Wish me luck and when I begin to get close to the weight I promise to post pictures of then and now :-).

Good luck to you! I am sure that post was hard for you to do as well. Admitting something like your efforts for weight-loss isn't easy; but you've come a long way and you have reason to be proud. Keep up the good work!
