This has probably been done to death already but what is your realistic goal and your fantasy goal??

Realistic - off diabetic medication
Fanstasy - look like Gina Carano

Reasonable: get to 190lbs from 205lbs
Just plain out there: Look like a tall version of Brad Pitt from Fight Club.

Decided to resurrect this thread - good topic! What do they say? Fail to Plan, Plan to fail? Made me think about goals.

Realistic Goals [RG] vs. Fantasy Goals [FG]

RG: Run a 1/2 marathon, uninjured and w/o throwing up on my shoes
FG: Running a 50 miler when I'm fifty. That gives me 9 yrs to correct form and train. :huh:

RG: Get to 22% Body Fat
FG: Get to 15-18% Body Fat (<== I just don't want this badly enough. I love food and drink! :laugh: )

RG: Be able to carry my share of equipment when backpacking.
FG: Everest. Well maybe not. I don't think I'd like feeling like a lobster that was put in the freezer. I don't understand trying to do something so demanding and dangerous w/o full brain power.

RG: Get rid of bat wings and be able to do real push-ups and pull-ups, someday.
FG: Getting such ripped upper arms that I can cut all the sleeves off of all my clothing. :laugh: :noway:

It is just like me to want to cut the sleeves of all my clothes w/o remembering that season called winter. :laugh:
