Everyone has such GREAT goals!!! I look forward to working with you all!

I have a list of goals that I just posted on my profile, mostly to remind me of what I want to do on this journey.

Here is a portion of that goal list, what I want to accomplish in 2013:

My immediate goals:
Eat healthier
Eat smaller meals
Eat more often
Move more (slow walking)
Lift very light weights (3 pounds)
Regain some energy

Short-term goals:
Conquer my fear of increased heart rate and breathing
Use the treadmill (3-4 times week)
Walk a flight of stairs without stopping to catch my breath

Mid-term goals:
Reach 199 pounds, taking me out of the MORBIDLY obese range
Look forward to exercise
Crave healthy food (as opposed to processed junk)
Be healthier

My goals for this year is to get healthy and to get down to a healthy weight . Plus to be able to maintain that weight.
To get there I plan on working out at least five days a week by doing my treadmill every other day.
Plus I want to start lifting weights twice a week.
I will cut back on my carbs. The bad ones, sugar, white flour etc.
And eat more veggies and to eat basically clean whole foods....
Drink more water
Log in here every day.
And most of all be honest with myself.........

I have lots of goals for the year but the primary one is to get healthy.

Hi
My main goal this year is to get to 140lbs - I am now 177lbs

To achieve this:
I need to drink water
make sure that I exercise 5 times a week
eat vegetables
stay motivated
use the wii and exercise equipment I have at least 3 times a week

Goals for 2013 are:

1 Get pregnant (long dragged out process bleck!)
2 Lose weight during the above process
3 Be healthier
4 Make lots of friends on MFP
5 Feel comfortable in my clothes
6 Have my rings sized down for the last time so I don't have to wear ring guards
7 Have fun with the support of friends while we all go through the ups and downs of this process

ETA: Please feel free to add me as a friend! I am a daily MFPer

My goals are to lose weight... I really want to lose 80 lbs, but 52 sounds like a more reasonable goal! I also want to have more energy, more confidence, eat healthier, and exercise regularly!

Hi!
Very excited to start 2013, especially with this group and this challenge.

My goals for 2013:
First, get back on track after the holidays, started with getting my water back up to 8 or more glasses a day yesterday and today.

Second, lose 52 lbs as the group title says, this will bring me into onederland and down to what I weighed after college (30 yrs ago) and before I settled down with my partner (19 years ago) - 176 lbs (at 228 now)

Third, to log everyday and be supportive to all my friends and acquaintances on MFP, this is what made the first 36 lbs I have lost since Aug so easy to do. The last few weeks have been hard and not just because of the holidays but because of time not spent on here.

Fourth, to start being more active, I was good in the fall but have slacked off a lot since the colder weather hit so I need to get that going again. I am not fond of exercise but I always feel better when I do it.

I am sure there are, or should be more , but that's it for now.

Good luck everyone, I hope 2013 proves to be the year all our hopes in this one area of our lives comes true!

My goal is to continue on the track that I am on right now. I desire to continue losing. My weight loss journey this time started on 10/9/12. I want to be at a total of 100# gone by that time. I would like to lose 2# a week but 52 pounds for the year is a safe goal as well.

Mainly I want to be healthy my health goals are as follows:

1. be in the best shape I can be in when I have surgery 3/27/13. (having structural jaw surgery done.. LeFort I and II due to ongoing jaw problems and migraines for many years.

2. Attend Zumba classes at least 3 times weekly (until my surgery then back at it as soon as I am released)

3. Plan my meals

4. On a weekly basis average at least my body weight daily in water/non calorie/decaf drinks.

5. Try new forms of exercise on a monthly basis - add in at least one session of something different. Example January skiing/snowshoeing... February swimming laps again... March???

That's it for now!

HAPPY NEW YEAR to a great group of losers!

My goal is to continue on the path that I started when I discovered MFP in November of 2012. I will continue logging the foods that I eat. I will continue staying within the calories that I am allowed each day. I will continue engaging in some form of cardio everyday and gradually include strength training. I want to lose an average of a pound a week (52 lbs this year) which will put me at my ideal weight for the first time in about 30 years. (Feel free to add me to your list of friends:flowerforyou: )

Lose 52+ pounds!
Feel confident when someone whips out a camera instead of dreading it!
Look forward to exercising!
Get rid of knee pain!
Log Log Log!

My goals are:

1. Track everyday.
2. Quit drinking soda
3. Break my addiction to fast food/take out.
4. Go to my TOPS meeting every week for weigh in accountability

#2 and #3 are going to be the hardest for me I think the best way is to go cold turkey. To accomplished this I am going to make weekly food plans and stick to them. I will allow myself to go out to eat with friends or family (we usually go to sit down restaurants and not very often). I am also going to experiment and try new recipes so I don’t get bored with the same old stuff.
