It's coming so soon! I've decided that instead of participating in the tradtion of making a resolution ON New Years Day I'm giving myself a goal to acheive BY New Years Day. I WILL BE 180lbs on January 1st, 2009. Watch out now...you're about to see what I'm made of! :drinker:

    My goal for the first of the year is to be down 10 pounds. Then I'll only have 8 to go in the new year. It's starting to get harder for me, so I'm going to up my exercise, which isn't too hard. I've been doing very little, but now that it gets dark so early I'm in the house by 6:00 with nothing to do.

    My friend & I are in a biggest loser type of competition that ends on Jan 2nd! We started on Sept 2nd.
    If we can all keep up the momentum & get through the holidays, then the rest is easy! Good luck ladies!!! We will do it!!!!!!!!

    Count me in - what a fab idea, pre-new year's resolution :bigsmile: :flowerforyou: :drinker:
    210 by Christmas day - I want to be 208 on New Years Day !!! :happy:

    It'll be a little awkward, what with my hubby and sons all wanting lots of goodies lying around for christmas, just means that I'll have to go to the gym for longer each day :bigsmile:

    I want to go down 5 pounds by our Christmas Vacation, so my 1st of Jan resolution is to maintain over the holidays (if I manage to get there by then, that is). I want to eat clean next year and stop eating after 9p.m., so I have about 2 months to get that to a habit, right?

    OOOOO I love this one!! Ok I would like to be 125 lbs/57 kg by New Year's, bringing me down 17 lbs/8 kg from where I am now and putting me 7lbs/3kg from my goal weight. This is going to be TOUGH because I am going back to the States to visit Dec. 10th and have all kinds of dinners and festivities planned with people. But I will be so happy to be back that I KNOW I will not want to binge which is my biggest obstacle (and why I gained in the first place).

    Here's to STARTING 2009 lean!!!!!

    Good for everyone and their New Year's goals! I will join also - I want to be at least 8 pounds lighter by then (that's about a pound a week, so I think reasonable). Keep up the good work and good attitudes, everyone!

    Phew, I think the scale misunderstood. I said, I want to go DOWN, not UP, you idiot! :grumble: Sheesh...
    :laugh: , have to do something about it... How's everyone else doing with their resolutions? :smile:

    Was at 195 when Rach threw down the gauntlet...my goal is to be at 185 by New Years. I'm at 191 today with 6 pounds to go! I haven't seen the 180's in about 6 years or more. I'm getting excited!:happy:

    I'd really like to be down 7.4 more pounds by New Year's but I'm not sure it will happen. My body has seemed to slow down but I'm going to push for it! That'll put me at 150! WOO!

    Good work to all of you for making goals! I like it! :flowerforyou:

    I really want to be in the 160's by the 1st of the year....now, mind you I'm at 170.2 right now....so I don't thing\k being in the 160's is too far of stretch...:wink: I really wanted to be at my goal weight of 150-155, but I don't think that is going to happen.....:flowerforyou:

    I want to be 185 by new years!!! I think saying "I've lost 75 lbs" will be AMAZING!

    I want to be at 205 by January 1st. If I do that, my BMI will be as such that I would no longer be classified as obese. That would make me happy. I would also have lost 70 lbs by then (at 55 right now).

    I would really like to be in the 130's by New Years. That would be 8lbs. It will be hard going home to help my sis with her new baby after Christmas but hopefully I can stay on track and lose it.

    New Years goal - 130's so would 139 would be great!
