Howdy! My goal for 2008 is to go down from 235 to 200, then perhaps down to 175. Let's do it!

rsblaker · 01-09-2008, 03:43 PM

My goals are simply to get to my goal weight of 180. There will ofcourse be a minor celebration when I go under the "Mendoza line" (200lbs, you baseball fans should recognize that). And to keep running. I have not competed in an organized race since HS, so maybe thats a goal as well.

Seth, I hear ya man....Keep it up, and the weight will come off!

erickajean · 01-09-2008, 07:25 PM

Skinny Jeans ... that's what I want

thisisrightnow · 01-09-2008, 07:47 PM

Get the rest of this weight off. I would love to get down to 150 or lower, depending on how I feel with my body at the time. And at this rate I think I could get down to a size 8, since I am 200 and in a 12 right now.

LoraJR72 · 01-10-2008, 06:30 AM

My goal is to eat clean, gain muscle mass, be sexy!!!

FreeingMyself · 01-10-2008, 06:34 AM

I want to make ultimate goal this year 125-130lbs. I am at 172.5lbs right now and slowly changing that

I want to be strong and to run a 5K and 10K this year

I want to maintain the lean muscle I have and tone up the belly-works

JeriRat · 01-10-2008, 06:48 PM

Get under 200 lbs. I'm a slow loser and that's a good goal for me.

wannabfit · 01-10-2008, 09:32 PM

Day 10 Induction gone from 211 to 206.

Mini goal is to break the 200 club.
Goal #2 187 ( where I was before baby # 2
ultimate goal 160#

pinktulips · 01-11-2008, 06:20 AM

Many small goals for the year but my major goal for 2008 is not to have to make "losing weight" my 2009 New Year's resolution.

scrappychik · 01-11-2008, 06:24 AM

Simple, to reach my final goal of 135 AND maintain

erickajean · 01-11-2008, 08:44 AM

I hear that pinktulips!!! To be free from the issue would be a dream come true!

pinktulips · 01-11-2008, 10:49 AM

erickajean I'm with you too on the skinnyjeans!! Especially the ones in my closet with the tags still on them!!!

erickajean · 01-11-2008, 10:54 AM

You too huh, LOL!! I have a few pairs of jeans I bought that just hang there, waiting for me to slide into them!! My thinspiration ...

3leggedtable · 01-11-2008, 11:59 AM

Lift weights 4+ times per week.
Consistently get 8+ hours of sleep per night.
Eat low carb.

It's the 3 legged table of weight loss.

sirius2469 · 01-11-2008, 08:19 PM

My goal is to get under 200 for the first time in about 30 years !

aryn12205 · 01-12-2008, 08:43 AM

Kinda new here, but my goal is to be under the BMI range for my petite frame (4'10). I currently am at 147 and need to be under 120. Long term goal is 110-115. Maybe even smaller depending on when i get there. :-)

I REFUSE to buy any new clothes until I absolutely HAVE to--meaning only when my pants start falling.

RhondasComputer · 01-12-2008, 02:44 PM

To concern myself more with being healthy than being a number (whether weight or size), because I have been my "number" many times, but you know, its not like something magically happens that day. Its a day just like any day that I am another number. Soooo, I am in a healthy range, and I am happy. I will focus on exercising, and making good food choices 97% of the time, but that other 3% of the time, I won't feel guilty. If my number goes down, then that is a bonus!

Hugs..Rhon

shannoncathy · 01-12-2008, 07:00 PM

My goal for 2008 is to reach goal of between 125 and 130 pounds. And, to work out regularly.

fatpam · 01-13-2008, 08:26 AM

1. under 130 lbs by my birthday

2. exercise 30 minutes a day
3. make sure I always have low carb food available
4. weigh myself weekly because I obsess on the daily fluctuations!

talithasuya · 01-13-2008, 10:37 PM

Reach goal and settle into a WOE that is both fun and healthy. Then, when I'm feeling confident with my body, I'm going to start dating and looking for a life partner.

RoxanneRoxanne · 01-14-2008, 08:42 AM

My goal is to lose at least 100 pounds in 2008!

Stacy O · 01-15-2008, 05:18 AM

My main goal of course is to be healthy, but honestly, I want to go to the beach or local park district swimming pool in my bathing suit and not feel embarrassed.

nosugar · 01-15-2008, 05:34 AM

my goal is to eat greens and lose fat - not count every carb because they will be coming from vegetables but really get this fat off!

BellaHMB · 01-15-2008, 09:24 AM

To continue to maintain my 79 lb loss with focus and attention!

Bella

rrrhan · 01-15-2008, 01:42 PM

My weight loss goal for 2008 is to get back in shape and to lose about 25 lbs. I feel so much better when I am under 135 lbs. I can even bend over and tie up my shoes and sill breathe! I miss the feeling of being in control that goes with not eating like a maniac so I guess weight loss is theraputic for me as well.

teacherfish · 01-15-2008, 03:17 PM

I know this year is going to be a major transition--I want to be able to look at myself naked and not only see the bad.

Goals
Size 10 by the end of the year
Size 12 by summer
Size 14 by my birthday in April--3months for 2 sizes! I think I can I think I can I think I can

I want to like working out!!
