    I would like to get back in to exercising everyday. My goal is to get my butt out of bed in the morning so that I can do it.

    I would like to lose 10 lbs at least in the next 50 days. I know I can do it I just have to work hard.

    I would like to start running. I know that it is winter here but there should be no excuses!
  • i would like to get back to my consistancy and lose weight in the process

    I have 10.5 pounds left to get back to my weight last year... and then start consistently losing weight... My next major goal is to lose (after said 10.5 pounds) 26 pounds and enter Onderland... I have not been to Onderland in over 16 years.... I turned 40 this past summer and I want this weight off!!! My final goal is to be comfortable in my skin, be able to shop and wear normal size clothes, and be healthy and happy...

    I plan to start lifting heavy next year and hopt this pays off in a big way.

    As soon as the weather warms a little I am going to get back out there and start walking.

    My goals for the challlenge:
    1. 10-15 pounds weight loss
    2. More consistent logging food, even on the weekends.
    3. Up workouts from twice a week to three times a week.
  • Climb back up on the workout horse! No more letting myself get derailed by things like housework and chores. If I'm not in good physical condition, who cares if the house is dusty?

    Of course I would like to lose my last 20 pounds too, but I've got to put the exercise first.

    Hey, I'm Lauren, 18, high school senior, going to the college of my dreams starting in August. I've been in a bit of a slow patch these past couple months, lose three pounds, gain one back sort of thing. So for this challenge, my goals are:

    -lose 15 lbs (get down to 175, which is less than I weighed freshman year)
    -burn 4000 kcal from cardio every week, no matter how busy I get!
    -habitually find time to workout even on my busiest days.
    -do at least one real pull up by the end of the challenge

    Good luck everyone. I know we can all reach our goals if we do it together!
  • I would like to lose at least 15 pounds in the 50 days. Just generally get more active, and feel better about myself :)
  • I'm Laura, 31, work fulltime and have one young child fulltime and stepmom to three others under 9 years old half time. My goals for the challenge are the following.

    -lose 14 lbs (Two lbs per week which might be a little high right now. That could be re-evaluated but I want 22 by late May so I think if I set 10 lbs for now I will be in good form for the May goal )
    -Work out at least 4 times per week for a minimum of 30 minutes each time.
    -Try better to stick to 40% carbs, 30% protein, 30% fat
    -start exercises that will increase my tone.
    -get more control of my life and my schedule

    My Goals in no particular order:
    Lose about 10 lbs
    Focus on drinking more water/juice and less carbonated drinks.
    Eat more fruits/veggies and less sweets (fruits are sweet and good for you, cookies although sweet, aren't good for you!).
    Get and stay motivated to work out (this seems to be the most difficult for me).
  • Hi everyone! I am 39, married and also mom to a 22 yr old son and 14 yr old daughter.
    I have been doing amazing since October 1st 2012 when I quit smoking and started working out to avoid weight gain, I have lost 35 lbs since then and want to keep up with the momentum I have started!
    Goals for the next 50 day are:
    1) do more cardio
    2) add more weight lifting
    3) continue to log EVERYDAY! :smile:
    4) Plan more of my meals in advance and make HEALTHY choices. :smile:

    I will turn 40 during this challenge (Feb 8th), and that is what got me motivated to begin with, I want to be fit and fabulous by 40! :) I am well on my way! :) Thanks for the challenge! Feel free to add me! :happy:
  • I would like to lose 15 pounds and to go to the gym at least once a week without my trainer so it totals 3 times a week. As well, I would like to learn new and healthier recipes to cook for myself.

    I used to go to the gym but it is hard to find someone that is reliable to take care of my daughter so I just want to be able to workout out at home on a regular basis, plan my meals better, and lose 15 pounds

    My main goal is making my workouts consistent and fierce.
    When I'm working out i always do better paying attention to my food and portions, and the losses will follow.
    In the short term. I have to get under 200 so my work pants will fit.
    This time around I'm also trying to make logging my food super easy by using this site
    and making some of my food ahead, like veggie burgers ready to go in the freezer.
  • I'm sure I already replied to this but can't find my post.
    I've enjoyed reading through all your goals and look forward to sharing the 50 days with you all... anyway, about me:
    I'm Chris, but most call me Stan. I joined MFP in August and was doing really well.. lost about 18 lbs altogether... then I quit smoking, started craving food and put nearly it all back on again. Then Xmas came and I haven't dared weigh myself since (I didn't log for three days and shudder to think how many calories I ate).
    We have the last party of the Holidays today and from then on it's back on the wagon for me.
    My goals are:
    To lose 16lbs
    Run 100Km (mixed between treadmill and outdoor running)
    Stretch EVERY day to loosen up my hamstrings (they're ridiculously tight)
    Fit in an at home calisthenics workout in the week, amongst my twice-weekly gym visits.

    I have a consultation at the gym on Day 1 of this challenge that will include a proper bmi calculation... I'll let you know how it goes.
    Good luck everyone.

    PS: Feel free to add me if you want to share motivation through the newsfeed also.

    I need to be better about planning meals ahead of time as well as being consistent about going to the gym. I am currently going through chemo so it limits me a bit but I'm trying to push through and get back on target. I gained back some of the weight I had lost once I was diagnosed with cancer.
