So, what's a goal you've set for this year?
Me.. less processed food and more vegetables and fruit.
Morning (or evening in your case!) Jo.
My goal is to shake off the rust. No more covid comfort eating or depression hibernating. My goal is to get back to the shape I was in my profile pic in 2016 π5 -

I have my yearly physical on Thursday. For my entire life, I've always said that I'm feeling fine (physically and mentally) and just let the doctor do her thing. My goal for Thursday is to be completely honest with everything that's been going on and come up with an action plan to address the physical side (lingering leg pain/numbness, higher blood pressure than I prefer, sleep issues) as well as the mental side (anxiety with highlights of depression) to get myself back to a happy place.
That is great.. Being honest with your Dr and getting help with your mental and physical problems is a good start to better understanding them and hopefully fixing them. Big goals for 2021.. I wish you success.0 -

Well done missus ππ» ππ»
My goal this year is to be looking like a body builder by summer πͺπ» π2 -
When I re-committed to myself on 12/17, I set a (pretty easily attainable) goal of 8 pounds off by 1/31. More than halfway there, and my big goal for the year is to keep setting goals I know I can reach every month instead of letting myself get overwhelmed by the big picture of "I can't believe I slacked enough to let myself gain back 25 pounds when I still had 20-30 I wanted to lose." Looking at the big picture tends to make me think I can't do it, but I know that I can - I'd love to prove it to myself and be within 10 pounds or so of my long-term goal by next New Years.8

I have the same kind of mind set. First goal is the get into the 150s... I need to break out of the 160s...I'm at 166. My goal is to be there by the end of February. After that I will make a new goal for the next 10 pounds. I joined a lot of groups and challenges this year and added friends to MFP....I haven't done a lot of that before...but it's time to make some changes π Good luck wiry your goals!2 -

Happy New Year to you all! I'm back in work today (meh) and Covid is the highest it has been here in Ireland, so no great start. Roll on the vaccinations...!
I've indulgenced big time over Christmas, but feeling happy to pick up normal eating routine again and thankfully no gains, which is a first.2 -

I feel like a snail...I want to feel like...a cheetah!
Ok, that might be a bit dramatic, but a little less like a sloth would be good. Whatever the step up is from that.6 -

New to the boards although not new to MFP. I have lost and gained the same 80 lbs twice. Trying again, this time trying to heal my relationship with food. I rarely eat because I am hungry. I eat for a million other reasons, but not because I am hungry. Would love some new friends!6
