Re: What are your goals from now until end of year?

My goals are to maintain a steady pace of working out 3 or 4 times a week, and to survive all four levels of Jillian Michaels' Ripped in 30. Right now I'm panting and sobbing through the second level

Re: What are your goals from now until end of year?

I want to see my abs

the top 2 are just about there

the bottom 2 will be my battle

Re: What are your goals from now until end of year?

My abs! After 3 kids I am hoping to get a good stomach where people say "I can't believe you have 3 kids"

Re: What are your goals from now until end of year?

I like that these goals are not number related.

I want to jog weekly to prepare for a 5k we registered for in October and post a better time than any other 5k's before.

Do strength training weekly as well and limit the jiggling of my arms as much as possible.

Find my permanent weight. I'm almost satisfied with where I am and my short term goal is 10 pounds which should put me in the next pants size down. I think once I get there, I'll focus on maintaining instead of losing.

between now and mid-October: survive my first marathon.

from mid-October to the end of the year: make it through the holidays without gaining weight.

2014: maintain my running and seriously looking into self-defense classes... sadly, i won't always have a young man as my running buddy, so i want to make sure i can kick some ass if i need to

Just to go to the gym and do something at least 3 days a week.

And continue to eat as healthy as possible, most days.

I like to keep it simple because it's baby steps for me.

20 lbs -

I'm the superficial one who wants to look good in my clothes

Re: What are your goals from now until end of year?

I really just want to get back to my normal weight. I've been struggling for the past year and just can't seem to get there.

start running again in Oct or Nov (had a baby last week)-- no time goals, I will be taking it slow

get back down to my prepregnancy weight (or lower if I can)

tone up my belly

tone up my legs which have gotten a little flabby

Re: What are your goals from now until end of year?

Get back into a good workout routine, run a 5K and start doing yoga.

My goals are all # based too. I am focusing more on diet than exercise right now.

I just made my 1st goal of -10lbs.

Next goal is to cross the line from obese to overweight on the BMI chart, which is about another 8 lbs.

My goals are really tiny.

I want to run a 5k.

Re: What are your goals from now until end of year?

Want to do a few 5Ks this fall and hopefully a 10k. Anyone know of any others besides Cow Harbor? I'm not ready for those grueling hills yet! Also like to start toning my arms and legs more. Hope to do better on my running time.

Re: What are your goals from now until end of year?

I hit all my 2013 goals already but there is always room for more...

* i want to PR in my mile race on 8/31

* not sure if i can PR my half marathon since I am focused on shorter distances right now but I would like to have a "good" time for my fall half marathon

* complete my first duathlon

* break 22 mins in a 5k. but this might have to wait til spring

Compete my first marathon in November. And just get through the training. Training is hard and it really tests your strength and dedication. I never realized how much time you have to devote to training! The training alone is hard to keep up with sometimes, but I'm determined.

Re: What are your goals from now until end of year?

Right now I'm very focused on my 1/2 marathon training. I've also been learning to cut my portions. I eat very healthy, but I tend to eat bucket loads of food, & now I'm realizing that I was eating more than I truly needed.

If Oct goes well, I'm hoping to do a Dec 1/2 marathon too & for the 1st time ever run through the winter

I want to get into a healthy routine... I was recently diagnosed with a chronic painful bladder condition and have to cut out all preservatives and lots of other foods, so that will be one challenge. The other is to get into a fitness routine. I have a LOT to lose. I am doing yoga several times a week now, but need to incorporate cardio. I need to find a new gym (mine closed) and get into a routine!!! I want to make fitness a habit and not a chore.

Re: What are your goals from now until end of year?

My 40th bday is 12/28! So I want to be 40 and Fabulous!

I definitely have 20 pounds to lose, but I would just be happy if it's a steady progress from where I am now.

injury free! (something I couldn't seem to do last year)

half ironman in September!

NYCM in November (my last marathon for a while, I think).

Re: What are your goals from now until end of year?

Gain the recommended amount during my pregnancy.

Re: What are your goals from now until end of year?

to run a 5k all the way through.

I've been running for about 7 weeks now and I'm up to running 19 minutes straight, so while that might not seem like a lot, it's huge for me who has never run before ever.

Re: What are your goals from now until end of year?

I met my weight loss goals that I set last January -- I actually hit my goal around May/June, and am a bit below where I hoped to be, in terms of numbers on the scale. And I think I've been doing well with cooking healthy foods and eating a balanced diet.

However, I am still not where I want or need to be from a fitness standpoint. So my goals are related to incorporating exercise. I took a zumba class for 1 hour a week this summer. But I am stepping it up and starting the T-25 workout DVDs from the Beach Body series. I am also going to look into tennis lessons and/or golf lessons to stay active and try some new things that I've always wanted to learn.

Also, I want to maintain my weight (hopefully exercise will help) through some fall vacations, weddings, holidays, etc. And I also want to stick with WW (and continue to attend weekly meetings) to help keep me at my goal weight.
