    my goals:

    get control of my binges
    get some form of daily exercise, no matter how small
    embrace positive thoughts about myself
    reflect on my day
    give of myself in the form of volunteering and blogging

    losing weight will hopefully be a by-product of these goals.

    2. Get my mind back on track.
    3. Lose the last 15 by ..... (thinking out loud..) 4 pounds a month, by May 1st?
    4.Try and tone as much as I can.

    I want to lose 75 pounds this year.

    I want to exersise regularly.

    I want to buy clothes in the regular women's sizes not plus.

    I want to go on a road bike trip with my brother before we are both too old to pedal. But I have to be able to pedal farther than 2 blocks without my chest exploding (or at least feeling like it is going to).

    I graduate nursing school in Dec. '09, and I want to be at my goal weight, or very close to it, for my pinning ceremony. I have to lose 1-2 lbs a week, and I can do it. I just want to look hot in my ugly white dress and ugly white nursing cap LOL.
