    I started this whole healthy me plan 4 weeks ago but my aim is to continue!

    I want to be a healthy weight by my birthday in June. No more obese!

    I want to like myself and make the time to do all the girly stuff like hair and make up.

    I want to finally get consistent about taking my vitamins.

    I want to get strong both physically and emotionally.

    I want to keep logging my food and stay involved with the community side of this site as that is really helping me.

    I want to have a positive view of myself.

    1. Decrease my body fat %
    2. Increase my strength
    Complete both by lifting heavier :)

    Keep losing weight - weighing/measuring foods, logging, walking and lifting

    Finish book - writing bits every day until done

    Sell book - set up account to accept payments, hit social networks for advertizing myself

    Any goals?

    ~Stick to MFP and reach my goal weight. I can be patient.
    ~Get back into horseback riding and start training my new 6 year old cremello mare. (She's a late x-mas present from me to me ;)
    ~Pay off my debts a little at a time.
    ~My University barely let me back in after dismissing me 3 years ago because of a failing GPA. I plan on working my *kitten* off and getting into the nursing program. That will be my biggest challenge yet.

    fitness wise: I want to reach my goal weight by my 1 year anniversary on MFP, which is mid march. I have 30lbs to go and just joined a New Year's 10 week challenge starting the first. I'm hoping that will keep me motivated to stick to it and work my *kitten* off. I know 30lbs in 3 months can be ambitious but I would love to be able to say I lost all the weight in a year.

    life wise: By the end of the year I want at least one new tattoo and to get my lip pierced. I also want to either find better paying job or position at work or get a second job to pay off bills. My Jeep is due to be paid off January 2014, my goal is to pay it off before the 2013 holiday season.

    well i am trying to get to 160-170 by may 5th for my beach vacation so that is approx 30-40 more pounds and 160 is my UGW. so i think ill end up more around 180 by may 5th with how slow my weight loss has been going. but ill aim high and be happy either way :).

    as for what i am doing? i will continue to eat healthy and try to add in more of a variety of exercise.

    Get down to a size 6.
    Start lifting heavy.
    Get my etsy shop up and running.
    Write more. Way more.

    ETA: Make it to my wedding day without murdering any of my family. If I hear one more, "You're not doing (xyz)? But it's tradition!" I swear... :grumble:

    Since I've reached my weight loss goal. My goals for the new year focus more on my inner self.

    *I'm currently in the motions to become a certified Yoga Instructor. So completing that in 2013 would be great!
    *Travel to Ireland, England, Spain or Greece(all of the above would be nice)
    *Volunteer-I always talk about doing it, this year I'm going to!
    *Compete in the Tough Mudder
    *Compete(again) in the Run for Your Lives Zombie Obstacle course
    *Road trip with my Fiance

    Those are my 2013 goals!

    Let's see:
    I want to lose about 20 lbs, and be more toned before my birthday (in November);
    Being able to kick this terrible sugar addiction (I really wish I could say no to holiday cookies);
    Learn how to be a better vegetarian (Thus meaning, learn how to cook for myself. hahaha);
    Continue to be successful in my classes and excel within my major (Japanese);
    Hopefully get a new job by the end of summer...
    There's tons more, but I think I'm going to stop here.

    I have two goals that sort of conflict with each other.... but whichever one I reach (maybe both!) would be alright by me.

    1. I want to lose these last 20 lbs so that I am firmly into a healthy BMI range. To do this, I have been doing Turbo Fire and monitoring what I eat. I would like to get more green veggies in next year. Once I reach my goal weight I plan to start lifting weights to tone out.

    -OR-

    2. I would like to get pregnant now that I am not severely overweight, and maintain a healthy lifestyle throughout my pregnancy.

    Wanted to lose 84 pounds from July 26th of this year until the end of 2012 (average of 4 pounds per week). Have accomplished that with 2 weeks to spare.

    Intend to lose 150 pounds in 2013 (average of 3 pounds per week).

    Will include lifting weights once my weight drops below 350, and continue adhering to MFP.
