    My ultimate goal is to be 140-150 pounds. Right now Im 198. I want to be healthy also, not just thin. I dont want food to have a hold over me like it currently does.

    But, taking this one day at a time, my goal for today is to get to bed and be happy about my food intake for the day. And not be starving!!!

    My goal this year is to feel better. I have been waking up with a pain in my hip and in my heel for a few weeks now. I will be forty in six months. I do not want the aches and pains to be a part of my life until they really have to. I need to lose weight..it is no longer just a want it is now a very necessary need. At this point a number is not that important to me. I just need to start actively doing something to achieve my goal.

    I am making smaller goals this year. I would like to lose about 5 lbs in January. I am also not eating sweets currently. That helps me lose faster and I feel so great without sweets!

    My major goal for 2013 is to be CONSISTENT!! I will not let myself down this year. Slow and steady...

    My goal for 2013 is to take care of myself.
    1-This means eating healthy, eliminating the foods I'm allergic to while focusing on eating more fruits and veggies.
    2- making time to get exercise everyday and enjoying / being proud of what I can do! Focus on the future not the past
    3-I really really really want to finally get to my goal weight---32 lbs to go :)

    Well, to start, my goals will be to log everything I eat, and to exercise 3 times a week, including at least 2 weight-training sessions. While I gained nearly 5 pounds over Christmas, on the positive side, I've so overdone the sweets thing that none of it is appealing to me at all right now!

    I probably can answer this better after I talk with my doctor but I believe I will be going lower carb starting soon.

    This is the year I'm really gonna do it. My goal is to lose all these extra pounds this year. I really want to be fit. I've been holding onto my old clothes (from 50 pounds ago) because "one of these days" I will fit into them again. Well, its' time to make it happen and not just thinking it will happen naturally. My first goal is the bathing suit I bought 4 years ago - and never wore. Here I come tankini!

    Just typed this up and then had in internet snafu. Sorry if this comes through twice.

    I'm totally looking forward to connecting with people on here! I love the format of the group. Here are my goals:

    1. Complete the Couch to 5K running program and then continue to run 3X/week.
    2. Run a 5K race.
    3. Log my food and exercise everyday.
    4. Be out of the 200's by April 1.
    5. Hit 180 by December 1.

    There are a couple of things I want to reward myself with.
    1. I want to knit myself a fair isle sweater. At my current size the yarn would be too expensive!
    2. Next winter I want to rock the skinny jeans with boots look. I'll buy them for myself if I hit that December goal!

    My resolutions for 2013.

    * Get at least 30 mins of exercise daily. Most days I get none lately.
    * Log my food, water and exercise daily.

    Eat healthier
    Eat smaller meals

    I've been really bad at taking my vitamins. So, my first goal for the new year (and specifically for this week) is to get back on track with taking my vitamins daily and on schedule.
