Success is not a race, be patient.
Success leads to success.
Success is always a work in progress.
Success doesn't come to you--you go to it.
Success is a journey, not a destination. Focus on the process.
Some people dream about success... while others wake up and work hard at it.
Success is achieved and maintained by those who try-and keep trying.
Everyday is a good day to SUCCEED!
If at first you don't succeed-try, try again

I hope to have a bikini body for this summer.

I was more fit when I was back in college. (which was 2 years ago)

I'm stuck in this cycle of the YO YO diet. I'll work out and eat right for six months then it all goes down hill for the rest of the year.

So one day I googled a fitness support group and came upon traineo. I'm glad I did!

I'm becoming my own self after spending nearly 3 years in a relationship. I'm 15.

Current goals: Complete C25K program, drop to 160 by the time school starts.

Looking to add some muscle over the next few months. Trying to get in those calories and focusing on the compound lifts. We'll see how it all goes :)

I am a triathlete trying to lose some weight so I can improve my times. I love traineo and the very motivational people on here.

Basic info: 5'9", 22 years old, mechanical engineer :)

I'm basically trying to get in shape and be healthy...

I like participating in sports but I want to be more competitive. Also I'm with Kevin Spacey from American Beauty - good reason :)

I'm looking to lose about a hundred lbs in the course of a year, and basically to just consistently get better. And I love comments and messages, so keep 'em coming!

I talk about goal setting a lot, how about I actually set some?

Well it's time to revisit goals... I didn't do too well with my end of year plans, but learned some things and changed my plans up a bit as I went along. During the 5-7 weeks of the year, I was able to put on about 8-10lbs of muscle, and stay at the same actual weight. The plan is to start the Strong Lifts 5X5 program to supplement the Couch to 5K program, and that should last the next 8-12 weeks.

I'm updating goals as well. Lowering cholesterol remains a goal, and I'll find out about that at the end of August.

Been bouncing around a bit, but getting a little stricter again and will monitor that over the next 3-4 weeks. I feel poised to really lose some weight again, so I'm looking forward to the healthy eating and additional exercise.

Hey Im 19 and a college student and I live in Texas. My biggest goal is to lose forty lbs, and to tone legs and arms. I love to lift weights, and I uh...tolerate running.:)
