I'm not talking about weight, specifically, but if you have certain weight loss goals, go ahead and list them!

my goals are:

1. to wear a size 9 in Levi's
2. to be able to run 2 miles without stopping
3. to be flexible enough to do the splits


i know i have more, but those are all i can think of right now! so tell me, what are yours?

    Good question!
    My #1 goal has always been education, so graduating from college (2 semesters away!) is major! I'd also like to start doing some fitness competitions (Rebel Run, Zombie Dash, Color Run, etc.)....without dying!

    1) Have visible abdominal muscles for the first time ever. 2) Work my way up to a PHD. 3) Create a company and grow it into a massive enterprise. 4) Get thin quick enough so that I can hit the beach this summer and eat chili fries this fall. Oh and 5) Visit Iceland.

    Fit into a size 6 (currently 8/10) I measure 38, 29, 38 so I'd like to get to 36, 26, 36. This is a weird one but I want to get rid of my inner thigh flubbiness xD lol I'm 22 inches and want to get to 19-20, and my ultimate weight goal of 125lbs. Oh and I want to complete the 4 mile marathon I've signed up for in less than 50 minutes. :D

    I started out with 1 goal. To get to a BMI below 25.

    I made it and now that has turned into 3 goals.

    1) Keep my BMI below 25
    2) Reduce my Body Fat to 20%
    3) Run for a full 5k

    ohhh and one other small one. Hit 200 days without chocolate or soda. I think I can do it. The BF% is the hard one though.

    1. Get those last 5 pounds off! I'm at 120, and mentally getting past that barrier to 115 is challenging.
    2. Run/walk 5 miles/day 6 days/week. Currently, I'm at about 3.5-4 miles a day..
    3. Get 8 hours of sleep every night. I now get about 7- 7/12.
    4. Make the most of my new job, which starts in the fall and is the opportunity I've been dreaming of.

    Finding time for #2-4 will be challenging, so giving up time-wasters in my life (TV, too much computer time) is essential.

    To get all of the weight off that I'm trying to lose -- for myself but also for my children.
    Grow old and see my children get married and have children of their own.

    1. To get healthy! (So I can have more energy and not feel so sluggish)
    2. More of a mental, slightly physical goal: I want to be able to love myself, again. (Battling with EDNOS has been a b*tch and a half. I hate what I've put my body through -with excessive excercise, restricting, purging, and lax abuse-. I just want to be able to look in the mirror and say "wow, I look amazing!")
    3. To set a positive example for my family and encourage them to enjoy fitness with me
    4. And.. I really want to start running outside, this summer. I've always been self-conscious about engaging in such an activity.. But I'm determined to not let my anxiety issues rule over my determination.

    Also, to the OP - best of luck with your goals! I was on a dance/drill team in high school and the first stretch from this video - http://youtu.be/EFZJEw2ySJM - was AMAZING for helping me get my splits down.
