    Thanks for sharing that Sue, he will be so proud. I'm not sure I really have a secret goal.

    That's a wonderful goal!!!!

    My secret goal is to be able to do the Annual Bridge Walk. Every September people come from miles away to walk across the Mackinaw bridge. I'm disabled and my chances of actually doing it are pretty slim, but I can still dream, right?

    I love your goal.

    My secret motivation is I want to run a 5K that is organized in honor of my uncle. This is the year that I make it really happen.

    The past 3 weeks have been especially tough for me. I have completely jumped off the wagon and filled my body with junk. I'm back on track now and feeling much better. This morning I booked a vacation in Jamaica for December. My hubby and I never had a real honeymoon - we went skydiving - so my secret goal is to fit into the dress that I wore to our first dance 17 years ago. It just happened to be white and could very easily be a dress to do vow renewals in. Of course I'm not telling anyone this because it's 5 sizes smaller than I am right now..... but it gives me something to work for! He doesn't know I'm planning on doing the vow renewals either. I'm excited to see if he will actually recognize the dress :)

    While most people think that I want to look good for my wedding (and I do) but one of the reasons I want to get fit is because I don't want to be the fat girlfriend (or fiance or wife) in the group! All of my fiance's friends are buff and so are their girlfriends.

    I feel like the ugly and odd one out when I hang out with all of them.

    So, in a few months when baseball season starts again then i want to show up at one of the games and have everyong going oooh and aaaah....lol

    Of course, it also starts and finishes with me... If I feel better about myself then it will shine through I am sure!

    Probably to run the London Marathon. I have always wanted to do it, but I don't think it has ever come up in conversation, so I doubt anyone knows.

    My secret goal is to go back to the UK and steal the love of my life away from his new girlfriend with my rockin' body. Don't worry, I know this is pretty unlikely... but it's nice to dream.

    climb Mt Rainier. I'm not a mountain climber at all or a hiker even, but that is one of those... before I die things.

    I'm going to start the C25K program soon. My goal is to run a 5K and actually run most of it. Not a terribly lofty goal, but there is an element of surprise to it. My sister-in-law ran the same race with me last year and she is way more fit than I am. She walked when I wanted to and ran at my slow pace, but she joked a lot about leaving me in the dust.

    This summer I would like to not tell her I was training for the run and actually surprise her by keeping up or at least setting a more impressive pace. I'll give it my best shot, at least!

    To shop and thrift stores and buy nothing but designer clothes and have them fit!! I've never been able to do that because I can never fit into anything and I have friends who buy expensive stuff for close to nothing!!

    OP try the c25k challenge. Im not a runner at all and it worked. You can totally do that. With our sons that is an amazing memory he will have one day. Make it happen...

    My goal is to feel hot in lingerie...I want ppl to whisper behind me like they used to do...in a good way.

    Oh yeah and I want to tattoo my ribs.

    I would secretly complete an iron man Kona, but i think it would have to be after my kids are grown.
