We 're leaving on Tuesday to visit my parents for 2 weeks and I really want to crack 250 pounds ( I was 253.4 last Friday ) by then . That 'll give me a 20 pound loss since the baby was born on May 22nd ( I ' m counting from 260 though because the first 10 pounds were all baby and the gunk that went along with him ) . I ' ve also decided to not weigh myself until we return from our trip on the 26th .

Question: Why is the narrator so focused on the 250 mark ?
They want to lose their weight from their pregnancy .
