    Finish round 1 of Insanity, bulk up a bit with Chalean Extreme and then complete another round of Insanity. I think I can hit my goal of being in the 130s.

    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.

    This sounds like a great plan =)

    Run a marathon
    Decrease my bf % by at least 6 % (want to get to 20% or just under)

    Start a new heavy lifting programme and pack on some more lean mass
    Keep my calorie tracking flexible (not obsessive)
    Maybe do a handstand pushup or two
    Do at least 10 pullups on the trot (can do 5 in a row between rests now)
    Complete my first triathlon in the summer
    Get to lots of music gigs
    Save some money so we can all get to a proper holiday (been building sheds and converting lofts this year ugh!)

    What are your goals for 2013? When are you starting and what are you doing to achieve those goals?

    Basically to improve all my lifts. I think a 500 lb deadlift is possible in 2013. Started lifting seriously about a year ago. First with Starting Strength and now with Wendler's 5/3/1.

    Keep on keepin' on.
    1. I'd like to reach my goal weight before 2013 is out, but losing weight sustainably is more important to me.
    2. If/when I reach my goal weight, then eat sustainably at maintenance with my healthier habits firmly in place.
    3. Continue with my exercise and weightlifting. I'm doing a virtual ride (on my Magne-Trainer stationary mini-bike) around the equator -- at my current pace I expect to reach the longitude of Easter Island in February 2013. By the end of 2013 I hope to be halfway between the Austral Islands and Samoa. Inspiration for this came from Sumit Basu's Virtual Ride Across the United States: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HdniSABzvFc My ride will take me close to six years to complete -- which I hope to do shortly before I turn 60.
    4. Continue doing what is needed of me as a caregiver, including taking care of myself.
    5. Experience (and complete) my first course taken through Coursera (free online learning). In my case it's a course in neuroethics. I'd like to fit in more online courses as well.
    6. Keep my creativity and sense of wonder in good working order.

    1. Arrive at goal weight. Original goal was to lose 70 lbs, so I'm right at the halfway point. However, it's possible my goal weight will change as I get closer.

    2. Run a 5k, run the whole thing, and finish under 30 minutes.

    3. Find a way to budget to quit my current gym and join the YMCA (I took a tour yesterday and I'm love-struck).

    4. Learn to swim.

    My goals for 2013 are as follows...
    -Begin a caloric deficit that will allow me to develop far more defined and cut muscle tone than as of now in a span of two months.
    -I want to finally uncover that six pack that has been laying dormant all these years!
    -Then after the two months I will begin my diet break and begin maintenance and my fat burning will be on auto pilot.
    I'm so excited!!!! I actually start my new routine tomorrow and I'm so psyched for this!! :)

    I hope everyone else is as excited as i am. I'll be there as support for anyone that asks for it! :)
    Best of luck to everyone and their new goals for the new year!!:happy:
