    Lose another 30 pounds, if not 50.
    Run a marathon or a half marathon and actually RUN, not have to walk any portion of it.
    Do all of the exercises in my Body Pump class without having to break during the sets.

    Nothing different - just keep doing what works.
    I did set new goals back in Nov after reaching my initial goals.

    By May I'll be back in 32 size pants - it's been 15 years, and I look forward to that.

    I have a few goals for the first half of the year:

    1. Continue logging my food in MFP and make healthy choices
    2. Run my first 5k (scheduled for midnight on New Year's Day)
    3. Compete in a Sprint Triathlon by Summer
    4. Lose 20 more lbs

    I'll have to re-evaluate in late Spring. I can't imagine what my goals will be for the second half of the year!

    Similar goals as yours.. to increase all my major lifts. I don't have any hard numbers set.. just want to see continual improvement. 2 x bw squat would be awesome though. Not sure if I will get there in 2012 or not.

    1. Continue what's been working: tracking on MFP every day, salsa class 4 days/week
    2. Meet or exceed 100g protein most days
    3. Do New Rules of Lifting for Women workouts 3x/week
    4. Floss every night (cuz if I can do that consistently, I've really made it)

    WOW- GIGI you look fantastic!

    My goals: Complete my first marathon January 22. And after that settle into a workout cycle that includes running shorter distances (up to 13.1 miles) and lots and lots of toning work for the arms and abs. ESPECIALLY MY ARMS!!!!

    1) Bench my body weight = ~65kg (I'm at 55kg 1RM now)
    2) Squat 90kg (I'm at around 70kg 1RM now)
    3) Would love a deadlift of 140kg, but I think that'll be the hardest to get (I'm set to try 100kg 1RM next week)

    4) Unassisted chin ups for 10+ reps (3 last time I checked)
    5) Unassisted pull ups for 5+ reps (none so far)
    6) Unassisted dips for 10+ reps (none so far)

    I want to PR in my South Dakota half marathon in June.

    I want to cross off another 10 states in my quest to do a half marathon in every state.

    And ***breathing heavily and with trepidation*** I may sign up for another full marathon. But for now that's just scary thoughts going through my brain. If I do, I'll want to PR in that as well.

    1) Improve my endurance

    2) Get a little bit leaner

    3) Get better at learning choreography so I don't make such a big fool out of myself in group fitness classes :bigsmile:

    1) Tracking every day,
    2) Staying within my calorie range
    3) eating healthy foods,
    4) getting exercise in and making it a priority,
    5) taking care of myself,
    6) losing 116 lbs in 2012.

    Other resolutions will include limiting fb and email time, and sticking to a evening routine that includes a homemade meal, instead of dining out frequently.

    These are my goals.
