    My goal is to get leaner and more tone. This year we plan on starting a family. I don't care about my weight on the scale, BUT I do want to be stronger and toner for when baby time comes. :happy:

    1. Be able to do 20+ REAL pushups in a row.
    2. Run 3 miles in under 30 minutes (big deal for me).
    3. Complete my first triathalon.

    I'm determined to reach all my goals for 2012!

    my goal for the past 3 years has been to run a complete mile, nonstop... however thanks to the annoying injury i incurred during child birth with baby #3, i can no longer run more than 2 minutes without extreme pain that lasts for at least a week- so my goal is only walk, but log in at least 1200 miles!
    to find a new way to deal with depression (in the gym instead of the kitchen) with no medicine!
    lose at least 70 pounds
    motivate my older two children to get out there and exercise with me- the 3-year old is already a workout fanatic who motivates me lol
    oh... and to be able to do an actual pull-up- hahahahahaha

    (i'm very very far from my goals)

    To fit nicely 32 pants with 12% bodyfat - 185 lbs by May of 2012
    And to compete with some guys MMA - nothing serious, just light stuff, but tough for us old guys.
    Also, I want to play a higher game of tennis - level 4.5 [serious game]

    It's been a long, hard road having lost 62 lbs, 25% body fat and wearing 46 size pants.
    In 2 words: PEAK FITNESS!

    Mine ultimately includes me getting to my goal weight which should take about 6 months then when I feel good enough to wear a swimsuit I'll learn to swim or if not take up adult gymnastics (I've always wanted to do backflip).

    To reach my goal weight! And if I keep at it with consistent 1 pound/week loss, it should be a piece of cake! Er...maybe not cake.

    I would like to run in my first 5k.

    Run 300 miles over the course of 2012.

    Sport a bikini with pride. ;D

    I never really thought of goals for next year. I have not even thought of a goal at all. Just kinda starting out in this and taking it one step at a time. I just realized that it scares me to death to consider a 1 year goal because I am too afraid that I wont make it. How about this for now. I want to HAVE to buy a new bathing suit this summer because the old one falls off when I wear it.

    The fitness goals that come to mind for 2012 are:

    ~To become a runner and complete 2 - 3 5ks, an 8k and end the year with a 10k
    ~To become a yogi (keeping steady yoga practice at 3 - 4 times per week)
    ~To be a fit and TONED (I wanna see some definition too) size 8 (I've always been a thick girl, so a size 8 is the smallest I ever aspire to be)
    ~To be able to do 50 push-ups (I can barely do 8 - 10 now)
    ~To be able to do 10 unassisted pull-ups (I can do none now)
    ~To develop a lifestyle with great habits that I couldn't break even if I tried

    Weight loss wise, I have no idea. I haven't yet thought about or set my goals, so I'll post them at a later date.

    Personal life wise, my goals are to be happy and to not mess everything up. We'll see..

    Lose 5lb/mo til I hit goal. Get strong.
    Become a runner, or at least a jogger
    This is a fantasy actually- my family would drop dead of shock

    My first goal. aside from losing weight was to run a mile! Good luck

    Wow, my goals seem way too humble to follow those above.
    I'd like to try yoga.

    No goal is too humble. You start with small goals and build up and up and up

    Do P90X2, run my first Warrior Dash, get my divorce final...not necessarily in that order. Oh, and get down to 10% body fat and show off the six pack that I thought I never had!
