The problem with people who want to lose weight is that they're overly ambitious. This desire to lose a massive amount of weight can only lead to quitting early and big disappointments. When it comes to creating weight loss goals, start first by creating a long term goal. Each goal you set should have mini-goals within it. This will keep you motivated and will serve as a barometer to your progress. Here's an example weight loss goal chart. The main goal can be divided into smaller goals, and then once again into even smaller goals which are descriptive and easy to accomplish.
