Goals

I see some of you with multiple short term weight goals and was wondering how you figure out those magic numbers to set after surgery?

I didn't really set short term goals in the very beginning or prior to surgery.  I waited until last week when I was eight weeks post-surgery.  I wanted to track my weight loss during that period and decide what would be some reasonable goals.  I didn't want to set myself up for disappointment.

I've now set a few realistic goals that I am pretty confident I can achieve.

My first goal was my lowest weight after I had lapband. When I reached this goal in a really sort period of time I just kept readjusting because I wanted to maximize my malabsorption period and have some cushion in case I have bounce back in the future.
