I try to lose 2-3 lbs. per week. I always lose more like 4-6 the first week then it slows down to about 2lbs or so. If I'm really good at sticking to plan I usually lose about 10lbs. a month on average.
I used to set goals. I would get so frustrated with not making the goals. I followed my diet to the letter and stayed the same weight for a year.
I don't make weight loss goals anymore. I just make "healthy body" goals now. Even if I don't loose weight, I know my body is healthier because of what I am eating.
Not dumb! I'm actually moving towards doing that same thing. I start obsessing over numbers and then I don't make healthy eating choices by eating too little.
I either eat too much when I'm not dieting and not enough when I'm trying to reach a certain number. I'm trying to learn MODERATION, not just in eating, but in everything I do.

Sounds dumb written down, but there it is.
