>My top 3 goals for the end of the next three weeks:1) Eat less sugar — I didn’t realize how much I was taking in!2) To have more endurance and be able to go that extra mile, whether it’s running for just one more minute at my top speed on the treadmill or doing one last set of pushups or squats.3) To reduce my waist, hips, thighs and butt, even by a little bit!– Rita
>1) Stop snacking when I’m bored.2) Do the 4-mile race in April with a better-than-ever time.3) Workout six times a week.-Genna
>1. To improve my upper body strength – I want to be able to wear things that are sleeveless this summer with out my arms being all doughy2. To strengthen my endurance and stamina – I don’t like feeling out of breath when I get to the top of the stairs when I come out of the subway3. To tone my stomach and strengthen my core – I have a vacation planned at the end of the summer for my 30th birthday. Rather than approach turning 30 with gloom and doom, I want to feel my strongest and healthiest yet. Plus I want to be able to wear my bathing suit feeling good about myself, rather than covering up under the biggest towel I can find

>1. i want to tone up my core, and actually feel excited wearing a bikini and showing off my abs.2. be able to fit into my old “skinny-day” jeans again.3. drastically reduce my sugar and carb intake. (which will be the hardest, considering i looove my breads. i didn’t go to artisan bread baking school for nothing!) -nina-
>1. Maintain my healthy eating plan. I gave up sugar for lent and it feels good! Add in Ariane’s eating tips and I should have bundles of energy! 2. Focus on strengthening and toning my upper body. The warm weather is (hopefully) on its way and I want to be able to show off toned arms instead of worry about bingo wings!3. Start a running plan which I maintain and helps me run faster. Which I can then put to use in the 4 mile race.
>1.reduce my body-fat % to 20%- I like the idea of feeling lean, light and full of energy.2.emotial eating:better learn how to identify it and take a walk/read a book instead of drowning in chocolate.3.feel comfortable and confident in a bikini- now this is a “big one” since I never did so (except during my childhood)Wibke
>1. Make my health my number one concern- working out and eating healthy religiously- also to become as fit as possible body, mind and soul.2. Take my beautiful body back- fit into my fabulous clothes that I could not fit into because of weight gain.3. Lose 30 lbs by summer and as much body fat as possible- run in the race in April and make it all the way through- and keep getting my butt kicked by Ariane.Andrea
>1. Developing a fitness plan that I can stick to and maintain for the long run. 2. To have total body definition and develop healthy habits and a healthy lifestyle.3. To fit into a size six slacks and size 4 dress/skirt perfectly. and 4… to complete another bootcamp with Ariane! Maureen

To establish an active lifestyle – an exercise program I actually stick to and enjoy as well as watching less TV and doing active things3. To get my diet under control – no more “diets” and to get a grip on my emotional eating.
