Having been overweight for so long, the concept of a goal weight is so elusive. like, I’m 5’3”, currently about 170 pounds (down from my highest weight of 190).
most of the last 10 - 15 years I’ve spent in the neighborhood of 150 - 160. In high school I was around 140 (I looked great in hindsight, but of course at the time I thought I was a monster).
I’ve spent years thinking “I really want to get back to 140”… but as of late (since I’m actually losing successfully), I’ve been thinking, I dunno, what if I want to be 125??
I feel so weird knowing I could set my mind to, and achieve, anything. Feeling slightly invincible at the moment. ;)
I’ve been keto since beginning of January, was consistently losing about a pound a week on average. then started incorporating 24 - 72 hour fasts here and there about a month ago… which has really been turbo boosting some poundage loss. :)
goal weights are so weird, because I have to lose an entire one of “goal me” to get to my ultimate goal weight… the thought of losing a whole me is so overwhelming but I’m trying to trust the process. I just hate that this whole thing is a giant waiting game!
