    To get back on track! I was so derailed in November/December it's not even funny. I'm surprised I only gained 3lbs! What's more disappointing is not the weight gain, but the loss of commitment and discipline. Pounds are easier to lose than it is to regain momentum for the long run.

    I have definite goals for this year. Last year my goals were to just make it through. :) Now that the boys are sleeping better and more scheduled, I can start tackling some stuff for ME.

    So I guess my resolution is to... resolve!

    I enjoyed reading about everyone's goals. It inspires me and it feels good to be surrounded by others who are in similar situations.

    I've decided to stop focusing on weight loss. Last year, I reached a healthy BMI, lost 45 pounds, and now I'm 10 pounds under my first child pre-pregnancy weight, 2 pounds under my wedding weight, and not dreading dresses, swimsuits, and jeans. Good enough.

    So, I changed my program to toning and healthy eating, and bought P90x. My husband and I are doing it together every morning at 5am, and we signed up to run at half-marathon on May 27. Instead of setting goals on the scale, I'm going to work on setting personal bests for runs and workouts. I am certain it will be more rewarding. I've also changed my calories to 1800 so that I don't feel bad for a healthy day.

    My new year's resolution is: to prioritize better.

    I just have one official resolution: to track my food every single day.

    The other ones are that I want to get totally organized and exercise more regularly, but I'm focused on the main resolution.

    To stick with MFP long term and not quit when it gets rough. I'd also like to lose at least half of my overall goal this year, and the other half by the time I turn 40.

    My resolution is to lose my last 10 pounds of baby weight and then some. It would be nice if I could wear shorts this summer. I haven't worn shorts since I was little because of my thighs....so that would be nice.

    I think I want mine to be to be able to manage my time better, and to not wait until the last possible second to get things done. Maybe to try to focus on myself a little bit more too!

    Live more naturally. So eating less processed foods, using natural products more, etc. As my little guy is licking and chewing everything these days I don't want him getting all those cleaning chemicals in his system.
