CHECK UP ON PROGRESS

Going by A's scales I'm 2 weeks behind schedule. I'm not great at achieving goals on time so I could say this was not unexpected.On the other hand I cannot be 100% sure of my progress until I get home.

Meantime I am challenged to lose another 3 kg in the 2 weeks before we do go home. The next goal is only achievable if I walk daily so hope the days stay cool enough.

20th September - 67 kg/148 lbs

4th October - 65 kg/143 lbs - 40%

18th October - 62 kg/138 lbs FINAL GOAL.

This is unreal but all it means is consistent weight loss, aproximately 1 kg per week which is not unrealistic but does not allow for upsets, hiccups, binges or any serious breaks from the plan. I've never been consistent for the length of time required but I'm hoping that by breaking my goal weights down to approximately 5 pounds every 2 weeks I have short term goals which will keep me motivated and stimulated.

So am I going to achieve my 1st goal or will I need to modify the list right at the beginning. All I can say is that I'm working at it.
