Tips
Set Your Weight-Loss Goals
Every game needs a goal. Weight loss is no exception. Set a measurable, realistic and time-specific target. You can be inspired by your 110-pound glory days, but to successfully shed excess pounds, most experts suggest starting with a more reasonable weight-loss outlook.
Aim to lose 5% to 10% of your current weight. If you weigh 200 pounds, set an initial goal of no more than 20 pounds and give yourself adequate time to lose that 10%. A healthy rate of weight loss is between one-half to three pounds each week, so it could take as long as five months to reach your goal. And that’s OK.
In addition to determining your target weight, set one or two behavioral goals. Be specific—instead of saying, “I will get more exercise,” say, “In the next week, I will walk for at least 30 minutes three times.” Use a journal to develop and monitor these goals and check in with yourself weekly.
Though losing weight can seem like an uphill battle, setting small, achievable goals can make those hills much more surmountable.

Topic: Pregnant at 52 after reunion love spell
Testimony:
-My marriage was falling almost dead due to a bit argument, depression, feelingless and numbed attitudes of my Hubby, he preferred being silent so as to hurt me.
-Although there’re days he has been fine and good to me, we cook, eat and do things together, but we still like stepping on a dozen of eggs, we were not at ease as like before when our marriage was still in an excellent shape. Most times after saying some hurtful words to me like; I cannot bear his children anymore cos of my age. He says sorry and apologize cos he knows that he’s acting passive, numbed and feelingless to me and frustration hits him back again and again.
-I truly love my Hubby and feels guilty of our misfortune, I have always wanted to trace back my wrongs and make some amendments so we can live as a happy family with our children by our side. I was tired of seeing him hurt inside.
-He eventually served me with a divorce letter after 18 years of our blessed marriage. His reason was that we could never work things out together again, I couldn’t bear his children, shutting him off to be involved in my life and affairs, he feels numbed when he thinks of those circumstances.
-I was deeply hurt before consulting Dr. Wakina Love Temple, even though I tried day by day to adjust to the woman of his choice but he didn’t see my efforts.
-At the end, I was put in a better position with my Hubby by Dr. Wakina love spell via his email dr.wakinalovetemple@gmail.com. I’m 7 months pregnant already at 52. It’s a magical work of Dr. Wakina that restored our dream.
My husband encouraged us to come out of our shell and tell the world about the man behind the medicine that brought us back together after 7 years of separation. He was so astonished by the amazing spell by Dr. Wakina (dr.wakinalovetemple@gmail.com) that reunited our undying love for each other that proved we are sole mate. There has been a barrier between us, we regularly disagrees with each other, argue over unnecessary things and fight almost every week when we were still unmarried. We eventually separated for some months due unsolvable issues before he moved to Italy for 4 years.
Though it might sound impossible to still get hold of your crush for that period of time without any means of communication. I always felt he took my heart away with him because I could not fall in love again and I could not stop thinking about him but I can not be with him. Doc Wakina (dr.wakinalovetemple@gmail.com) proved that nothing relating to love issues is impossible for him; doctor also proved that true love does not die after broking the barriers between us. Days after the spell, he returned unexpectedly to take me along with him. My happiest moment is seeing us live happily for a year without issues before getting married. We are still astonished by the good spiritual work that brought us together forever.
Sometime late September last year, I needed help for a bring back love spell after reading great reviews on Dr. Wakina and his love spell. I had a situation which I desperately needed a supernatural help on, every physical efforts made to rescue my husband has always failed. My husband stopped loving and caring for me and our children after 7 years of happy home. He did so much wrong to me, I encountered so many domestic violence from him, he turned into a professional liar, and the worst of all, and he started using drugs and alcohol. I couldn’t bear his torture anymore when he wanted a divorce. I couldn’t afford to lose my husband to a strange spirit, I knew him to be a loving man before we got married, but I didn’t know what came over him.
Doctor Wakina love spell was so great and powerful, my estranged husband’s attitude and urge for evil changed just after 8 days of the completion of the love spell. The reasons why I can recommend Dr. Wakina to anyone are, his love spell is real and it works, Doctor wakina don’t cast love spell that is against anyone’s wish and his love spell lasts for eternity. I have been observing my husband’s behavior for more than 9 months, he is still the same, he has never stopped loving me again, the love keep growing each day and we keep prospering with the blessings that follows Doctor Wakina’s love spell. That’s the reason why I can recommend him to anyone event to my worst enemy… to email him via dr.wakinalovetemple@gmail.com

Awesome starting my for life diet change not too much restriction but starting with portion control & 25-30 min walk on my treadmill 5 days a wk.& drink atleast 2 qts.of water daily do snacks in moderation.
Will walk quickly 45 minutes at least 3x per week. Will also add light weights 2x per week.
My goal is to loose 20 lbs before June and total of 60lbs before October.I will start my journey by working out to my dvd six times a week.... 30 minutes in the morning and 30 minutes at night.
Will walk with Sheba(my dog) for at least 30 min. three time a week
Lift weight once a week 30 minute
Zumba 20min once week
I am 165lbs at the moment. I started at 198lbs in February. My weight loss goal is to be 154lbs which is the high end of my healthy weight, then I shall see how I look and feel and see what size my waist is, and go from there.
My two behavioral changes are:
I will walk for 10,000 steps every day.
I will do stretching Yoga exercises every day.
I starting losing weight in Oct. 2009 and have lost 60 pounds and now weigh 180 pounds. My goal is to reach 145 pounds. I lost my husband last May and i have always had to fight my weight. I want to reach this goal and keep it off.
My goal is to lose 6 pounds in the next 6 weeks. So by the second week in April 2010 I'll be at my goal.
My two behavioral goals are...
1) Exercise 30-60 minutes everyday (even if it's just going for a walk)
2) Eliminate junk food. On the weekend I will allow myself one cheat day or one cheat meal on each day of the weekend.
I don't plan on lossing weight this week. I plan on trying to get acclimated to setting my goals, getting myself situated on setting my goals. The weight loss will come and I just taking it one day at a time.
I will lose 7 kilos before Christmas! Per 5 October, I start a new job in a better distance to the place I live than before. Therefore, I will have more time to sport (fitness, running, maybe swimming). Together with healthier food; 1x per week chocolate instead of the whole week, more fruit and vegetables, it MUST be possible to lose these 7 kilos! My BMI is already 23 (normal) with a lenght of 1,76m and 72 kg, but I want to have a weight of 65.
I will lose 9 kilos! for this week, I will stop eating two hours before i go to bed. I will limit myself the amount of junk food I will consume. I will sneak in more fruits and /or vegetables in my meals. hopefully I will drop to my desired 70 kilos within the next 4-8 weeks!
I WILL eat healthier - avoid Over Processed foods, sugar and junk food! I will lose 12.7 lbs by August 30th which is 33%. I will continue doing crunches and leg lifts with my DD and I WILL join a class (either yoga or kickboxing) in the next 30 days.
I am going to lose 25 lbs in 3 months - so by Nov 6th I will weigh 240 lbs or less. I think one of my problems before was that I told myself I could lose the 100 lbs I need to lose in 10 months. I thought, 10 months to freedom from all this weight! But nothing ever happened. So maybe this 3 month, lesser weight goal will be not so overwhelming. Also, I dont exercise on a regular schedule. So i set up a schedule I think i can do. I like to walk in the evenings, so I will walk for 20 minutes, to start, after dinner on the three evenings I do not work-Monday, Wednesday, Friday. I will do stretching for at least 10 minutes 5 days a week. And floor exercises (crunches, leg lifts, etc) for 20 minutes, on the mornings I work later, Tuesday and Thursday. For now, Saturday and Sunday are free days. For me, any regular exercise has got to be better than what I am doing now.
i WILL LOSE 20 LBS IN NEXT3 MTHS - TODAY IT IS 6TH AUGUST 2009
I WILL WALK 3 TIMES A WEEK 45 MINS
My goal is 10% weight loss and my activity will be wateraerobics one hour a day. I'm not putting a time limit on the loss, I feel I don't need the pressure, I need it to be a even flow. Will stay on food track and do the wateraerobics
and see how long it takes. I don't want to set myself up for a disappointment. I need to do this for health reasons, if Idon't I will not be doing anything anytime on this earth, that bit of advice came from my doctor. I need all the support I can get. have a very supportive framily and a wonderful group of friends that are cheering me on.
Ok, my first goal is 30 in 4. My second goal is 60 in 8. But to achieve my first goal, my sister and I have started walking an average of 4 days a week for 1 hour or at least 1 mile. This has not only given me that feeling of getting physically healthy, but we both are able to share feelings and unload negative things and leave them on our trail which in turn is causing our mental health to turn as well. I have almost completely rid myself of sweets and breads, my weaknesses. I have a gluten allergy, so with knowing what those 2 things can do to me, it is easier to let go of those foods, but I have not mastered it yet. Those are only starts I know, but what happens to me, and my sister, is that we begin a light exercise program and end up consumed with it. I think having a partner this time will help keep me accountable and regulated, but inspired. I am SO excited!! My idea weight and size is around 140 lbs, and I believe it is managable. I love being outside as well, so the walking outdoors is awesome!
I have started with putting the cigarettes down and walking for an hour a day.Eating was never my issue,i hurt my back in 2003 for like the 4th time and with the knowledge that any wrong move could lock me up,i just gave up trying to exercise at all and that's where i went wrong!
I have so many workout videos there is no reason for me not to use them. I will set up my basement and work out at least 5 days a week usisng the TRANSfirmATION set as well as the two great walking dvds I have. After 3 months of solid no excuse working out,I will spend the money on the AFTERBURN workout.
Instead of a total pounds weight loss goal, I will look towards decreasing my weight in 10% incrememts.
Every year, my goal has been the same lose weight. I lost an astounding 93 pounds back in 2003 and loved every bit of the new me. However, gained all but 21 pounds back. How awful, but I really did it because of my husband. Now it is all about me. I have a goal of eating vegetarian not vegan until I have mastered vegetarian for a minute. I will exercise 5 days minimum this year and be happier with myself.
