    I definitely do! Except mine is by my birthday, Dec 22. I'm 9 lbs away from the one hundreds, or "onederland". I haven't seen that number since my first baby, 8 years ago. I'm super excited to reach that milestone!!!!!! Good luck to you!

    Yes, I would like to lose 5 lbs before January instead of gaining 5 lbs around the holidays like I do every year!

    I have a goal to lose 30 pounds by February 14, 2012. That is my 39th birthday. I hope to be at full lost weight goal by the time I turn 40! So that is 115 pounds total by February 14, 2013. Got 104 pounds to go and a year and about 3 months to do it in! Best of luck to all of you!!

    10.6 pounds to go by the end of the year. That would put me at my pre-pregnancy weight (my oldest is 5, yikes).

    I want to build up the muscles around my back so it doesn't hurt every day when I work out. Bonus if by then I've stopped getting physically sick during some of the more strenuous workout routines.

    Mine is not be in the obese range. My current BMI of today is 32.4 so I need to lose 16.5lbs to reach my goal. November has gone well for me so far, I've lost 7.3lbs so I continue or up my game hopefully I'll be almost there.

    I have lost 94 pounds from my fattest. My goal is to have lost 100 pounds by Christmas, and that is before January 1st so I guess that qualifies. I still have 59 pounds to go to reach my “healthy” BMI weight.

    Trying to get to 140 by New Years.

    I won't be tragically heart broken if I don't, though.

    My goal is to start January weighing the same as I did when I started December. I have a 40th birthday which will proabaly involve a work party and a get drunk with everyone else party and 3 Christmas parties (Mom's family, Dad's family, step-dad's family) so all I want to do is maintain. If I can manage that I will consider the holidays a success.

    mine is really to lose 5lbs, but if I stay at my current given the holidays I would be ok with that. (although this is year I am making a strong effort to make all my holiday dishes healthier)

    I like how you have a miles per year goal. I think that's really interesting and something that I might want to look at doing. Thanks for the idea! :)

    Mine is no back pain from working out. Which means I need to figure out exactly what routines cause the pain and then alter them. Plus build up the muscles around my spine. I also want to be able to work out for at least 30 minutes at a time, vigorously, without, to put it politely, severe stomach upset.

    My goal is to be back to my pre-pregnancy weight of 152 since it will be one year on Dec 22. However, that's 12 lbs and I'm only losing half a pound a week right now.

    I have three goals:

    Start a regular Weight Lifting Program 3 days a week.
    Sign up to start taking college classes to get my degree.
    On my weekend run, run 10 miles at one time by 12/31. (at 7 1/2 miles now. I increase my distance every two weeks by one mile)

    I will hit all of these goals, as hitting all of my goals is my new "Thing"

    My MFP adventure has taught me that i can can hit my personal goals if i set my mind to it. I never had issues hitting goals at work but never really set my mind to hit healthy lifestyle choices. I am now focused all the way around.

    I didn't list my hitting my goal weight as i'll hit that by this Thursday:)

    Im averaging 2-3lbs loss per week lately... Im not going to keep my hopes up where we have the holidays.. but with careful meal/menu planning, I would be happy to see at least 10#'s gone by January 1st... I think that is reasonable to work with AND enjoy the holidays...Ive dropped 66lbs so far, so I know any loss will be a GREAT loss!

    Yep.

    My goal:
    Out of the 240's.
    At 230 approaching 220's.
    In a consistent exercise routine.

    I'm going with 5 pounds by January. It's less than a pound a week but as I've gotten closer to my goal the loss has really slowed down.
