    To wear my Little Black Jeans and I did ... for a day, then gained weight. :grumble:

    Healthwise, to consistently lower my BP to 119/79 so I can eat cottage cheese again.

    Running a ten min mile. I could barely do it in high school and it would knock me flat out for a week. Now I can do AND keep going. I'm so freaking proud of myself and I can only get better from here.

    I'd like to get comfortable with running 4-5 miles several times a week, at 10 minutes per mile-- right now, I'm only running about 2 miles, and at 12 minutes each!

    2nd Dan black belt in Tae Kwon Do. I got my 1st Dan 6 weeks ago.


    AWESOME!!!!!!! Congratulations to you!!!!!! I just tested for 1st Dan in Tang Soo Do on October 10th. I don't know when I will hear if i passed/get my belt though (based on others, about 2 months). That's fabulous!

    Thanx much for the kind words!

    I was at M K Kim's Tang Soo Do tournament in Charlotte, NC two weekends ago. I did not compete, but rather worked as a timekeeper, scorekeeper, and holder for breaking. Folks from my school didn't adjust well to reverse punches counting for a score (they don't in TKD) or punches to the face being legal (they are a DQ in most TKD tournaments if they draw blood).

    [clenches fists and bows] Tang Soo!

    Well it WAS to fit into my dresses for my upcoming wedding and today I found out I achieved that goal!

    Next goal is to minimize the back cleavage the dresses give me and to tone up my arms! I fit in the dresses but now I want to look FABULOUS in them.

    My ultimate goal is to lose enough weight off my belly so that my "fat apron", or panniculus, as it's officially called, which is only a level 1, goes away without surgery. I'm amazed at how much losing 56 lbs has shrunk it already, but surgery for vanity's sake isn't for me, so that's my goal. I promise to share on this site if that happens. I have been scouring the internet trying to find out if it's even possible to make one go away with weight loss and improved muscle tone alone. I can't find anything, so I'll be the guinea pig. :-)

    I see some amazing goals. Great question, OP!!

    I am running a 50k (31miles) in May and have a 50mile run planned for sometime in August to raise money for a home that houses girls rescued out of sex trafficking. As of right now those are my two big non scale goals.
