    I want to finish the 10-week challenge I signed up for at the gym, continue to work on the C25K that I started and QUIT SMOKING. I started Chantix yesterday, and hope that now, when I am so focused on lifestyle changes, will give me motivation to be successful. I quit smoking 5 years ago in April, quit for 4 years, and started last year when my mom passed away. So, I am hoping to replace my smoking habit with a new, healthier habit. I am 14 days soda-free, so I hope to continue with that as well. I would like to set a weight loss goal, but have set a goal of working out 5 days per week and eating better and I'll see where that gets me.

    Don't have a specific THREE-month goal, but my 50th birthday is a little less than FOUR months away. My goal is to get my BMI out of the "Obese" range by then. I'm 28 pounds away from that point, so it's a realistic goal.

    Before I get there, I'm hoping to get my weight below 200 pounds by the end of June.

    In the short term, I have four milestones I expect to hit by the end of May. Friday will be my 200th day on MFP. Sometime this weekend I expect to hit the 50-pounds-lost mark. I'm on track to walk 200 miles in the month of May. And if I hit THAT goal, I wlll have walked 1000 miles since joining MFP.

    1) I want to be in the 140s again by my anniversary in 5 and a half weeks.
    2) I want to continue to work out 5 days a week, making it my routine.
    3) I want to maintain any weight lost when I go on holiday in August.
    4) I want to weigh 135lbs by my boyfriend's birthday in September.
    5) I want to be able to start running again within the next few months. I'm currently going through physio to strengthen my feet so I can try and avoid surgery, so hopefully it'll help and I can get back to running without having to wait for surgery next year.

    I really want to focus on decreasing my body fat percentage, increasing my lean muscle mass, and finding a different coping mechanism than compulsive exercise or food obsession...

    I guess it is "LIKE" since there is no LIKE button. Motivation comes in many forms. Goals are to stay under 135 Carbs a day. My goal is to Loose weight and exercise 5 times or more a week. I don't have much of a choice, it is diabetes. I am not really overweight, but had my pancreas shortened several years ago and now that is catching up with me. I have about 5 more lbs to my goal weight and just need the motivation to keep going. It is difficult but I am able to achieve this goal by maybe July.

    Changing the eating habits, well that was not as difficult as I thought. I started reading the labels at the grocery store and became just frustrated with food all together. Found my choice was to not buy much on the prepackaged foods. I just keep telling myself portion size portion size!!!!

    My new favorite food is the sweet potato.....Makes a great side and is very filling and tastes very sweet. Just stick it in the microwave and a little cinnamon butter, yahooo!! It does help to log all my food daily!! I really see a pattern in how I am changing my eating habits.

    Good luck to all in meeting your goals for the next few months!!!!

    By the end of the summer I want

    1 - to feel comfortable in a pair of shorts. To do this I need to lose some of the jiggling and the fat roll over my knees.

    2 - run a mile in under 12 minutes. I'm under 20 already so I know I can do this.

    3 - be able to climb up the stairs at my college without getting winded.

    4 - I would like to lose 20 pounds by the end of the summer. But any amount of weight lose will be good to me lol

    I've regained about 25 pounds since falling off the wagon last December. So my goal is to get back to my November 2011 weight by the end of the summer (156 by 8/31). I got a fitbit a few days ago and am already in looooovvvvveeee! My first step is holding myself accountable for what I eat and drink so I am trying to log religiously. Next is fitting in exercise again, energy breeds engery and lack of energy breeds lack of energy, and I'm tired of not having any energy!!

    Once I get back to 156 I'll focus on the slow progression towards my goal weight. Good luck everybody, we can do it!!!
