I find it much easier and more encouraging to set myself daily HABIT goals rather than an arbitrary weight on the scale. The scale is notorious for being inaccurate for weight loss, because it doesn't just measure fat, but also water, skin, muscle, bone, etc.
So if I have done these things today, it's a successful day: - Keep my carbs under my daily limit
- Keep my carbs under my limit per meal
- Eat at least two servings of veg
- Physically move at least 20 minutes (from walking and gardening and easy ("seniors" or "plus size") exercise tapes to Tai Chi and yoga)
If I do these things consistently, I WILL lose weight. I find it much more encouraging to track things I can actually DO or NOT DO, rather than aim for a specific weight.
