    My fitness resolution is to run in the Parkersburg News and Sentinel Half Marathon in August. I also resolve to be below 200 pounds by this time next year.

    Just for fun: What is your fitness resolution for 2013? - I started calorie counting last year and in April I was down to 198 lbs. I maintained that through the summer, but in the Fall I started to gain. My goal is to make lifestyle changes and stop my weight from yo-yoing. My first major milestone is that I'm 17 lbs from no longer being obese...If I get there, I think I might cry. I can't wait!

    I'm declaring a new starting set of stats today.

    SW: (Starting weight) 153.2
    CW: (Current weight) 153.2
    GW: (Goal weight for the month) 146

    (Today's weight is higher than usual because of celebrations last night. I'd guess I'm really at about 151).

    My weight loss goal for the year: I am only about 15 pounds over my ideal weight. I spent most of last year sick from one serious thing or another, and since I couldn't work out as much/as intensely, my weight crept up. This, along with a lot of what I had to deal with last year, has given me some pretty serious anxiety.

    My mantra is that losing 10 pounds will cure my anxiety issues. It will get rid of the weight that's bothering me, and likely the passage of time to get there will also help. Knocking half of it out in January would be awesome.

    Just for fun: What is your fitness resolution for 2013? I'm unsure what a realistic goal is, but my overall goal is to get back down to 125 or 130. I don't know if I could realistically do that in a year though lol.
