    I believe that you can quit!
    I have quit myself, cold turkey. As hard as it seems, if you put all your dedication towards it - you CAN do it!

    To actually finish 30DS
    To get down to a size 10. I'm kinda in between sizes right now where most 10's are a little snug and the 12's are pretty lose so I have to wear a belt.
    Get a morning workout routine down so I don't have to try to squeeze it in in the evening.

    I want to stay committed! I have been on and off all summer (usually I go off when things are stressful, like moving time) and I want to keep logging and not get discouraged if I fail.

    You can do it. I quit cold turkey 16 years ago and never looked back. If you're ready you can do it. Try changing your habits that trigger a cigarette. For example if you wake up in the morning and the first thing you do is have that morning drag instead of doing that make a cup of coffee or just do something different. I had a friend who went to someone to help quit smoking and that's what they made her and her husband do. It was all about changing the habits that you usually do when you smoke. She also had to pick one spot outside to smoke and that was the only place she was allowed to smoke no matter what: rain, snow, wind, etc. she couldn't go any place else but there. She said that it's amazing how long it actually takes to smoke a cigarette when you're freezing your butt off LOL.

    Its a little far-fetched but I would really like to be close to 230lbs by September 28th for a 2 day rock concert! That way I can look awwwwesome! (I'd look more awesome at 160...but gotta keep it a little real)

    My 30th birthday is at the end of September and I originally wanted to lose 30 pounds by the time I reached 30 but now I'm just going to try for about 10 more by then. That will give me a total of about 20 pounds lost since I started back on here this summer!

    Mine is to be able to do 20 pushups without stopping. Regular pushups, not the modified type that I usually do.

    I actually started the goal last week but gave myself until the end of Sept because I thought it would take me a while because I've never been able to do more than a few, but I'm already up to 12 at once, so I might have to find a new goal mid-Sept.

    I find that personal goals helps keep me motivated to work out, which is always my downfall. My summer goal was the C25k (done!).
