    I've come a long way from last year but I still have a list!

    Consume less sodium.
    More strength training.
    Eat more vegetables and protein, fewer carbs.
    Finish 5k to 10k, (I'm on week 11), enter my first race and finish it.
    Take a lower dose of BP meds.

    May 5th 2012 was the day I started c25k for the 5th time as one last desperate attempt to 'run.

    may 5th 2013 is the day I run my first Marathon in Toronto. My goal is to simply finish.
    You can do it! Slow your speed down so it's easier to complete, then add speed later. I'm 51, never ran before and now I'm working on the 5k to 10k bridge. :)

    My goals for 2013 are to lose 61 pounds and get down to 140 lbs. I got very close to my goal and then gained 45 pounds. I want to get back on track, start running and exercising consistently again and focus on healthy eating.

    Get fit, thin, and sexy for my wedding in October! I refuse to look back at the photos from the happiest day of my life and be disgusted with myself.

    Fitness wise I want to get down to 135 by June...and lose all my belly fat.
    Health wise I just want to be able to eat healthy and portion control...I already cook fairly healthy.
    I also am giving up soda, beer, and liquor...I will drink the occasional glass of wine, but not the whole bottle.

    My goals are to clean up the last 20% of my diet and eliminate dairy (because of allergy) and wine. I want to be able to wear sexy shoes and show off my non-swollen ankles.

    And to be very open to new opportunities that push my comfort zone. 2012 has been a great year for me with lots of changes and I'm looking forward to 2013.

    I will do the following in 2013.

    1. Continue eating healthy.
    2. Finish a personal training course.
    3. Try a variety of new fitness activities so I won't get bored.
    4. Spend more time with my family.

    Most importantly, I will try to always project a positive attitude and not internalize comments from the negative Nelly's who like to try to fill my head with crazy nonsense such as weight loss is too hard and eating healthy is too time consuming or too expensive.

    Be well!

    To have it not suck as bad as 2012 did.

    Seriously - to be able to hike Long's Peak by July, and to have abs. And maybe even wear a bikini in Mexico.

    Drink only water or seltzer (which I do 90% of the time now). Eat mostly fruits veg and healthy meats and fats with minimal processed foods or sweets. To completely eliminate HFCS from my life and eat minimal sugar. If I get a car I want to weightlift at the gym. Im already well on my way to most of these.
