goals

just thought it would be nice to say where and what youd like to be doing by christmas ?

Eating intuitivly, whatever I feel like + not caring how many cals it is.  Some days it will be more some days it will be less; it will even out.  Yes, this includes the christmas feast!

Once again, not being as cold.  Last winter I was always begging my parents to crank up the heat, and my highlight of the day was being able to take a shower.

Finding a sport that I'm interesting in and doing it 'cause it's fun, not because it burns calories.  (I'm thinking martial arts)

And I want to have grown by then! I hate being short.

- i want to be more flexible with meal timings

- i want to be able to function well when i go off to uni in a month (eek!) and not be known as the one with the weird food issues, though i am vegan so that will probably happen anyway!

- i want to learn to cope better with my feelings and not try to transfer my emotions to my appearance & weight

- i want to feel okay when i go out for a meal

- oh and i want to have cake on my 22nd birthday next month after 3 years of missing out!

This is a sweet post. I think for me holidays in general from Thanksgiving to New Years I hate. Not just about the food but the overall I guess. This year I want to be more positive and thankful. To engage in the holidays instead of sit home. Buy cute clothes instead of covering up which whether underweight or normal I do. I live in FL. I always want to follow through with my life goals.

good goals abbi i seem to be following you around the forum today :)

By Christmas, I will be at a point where the holiday is what's important. Not how many calories Victoria ate that day and not how many hours she spent/didn't spend exercising or walking, like it has been for so many years now. I still remember spending hours doing jumping jacks because on Thanksgiving day, I ate one tablespoon each of mashed potatoes, spinach and a sliver of tofurkey. Instead, it will be about spending time with family instead of trying to avoid and assuage anorexia.

By Christmas, I want to be content with my life and where things are going.

I second the notion of not wanting to be cold all of the time! Unfortunately, even when I was overweight I was COLD ALL OF THE TIME! Its the worst!

OK... by Christmas...

I want to have achieved straight A's this semester and be admitted to the one program to which I've already applied.

I want to be healthy. I want to not have chest pains and I want to be able to sleep more.

I want to be happy.

I want to have Christmas dinner without worrying about feeling fat the next day.

 Thanks. You too and I don't mind. You would be fun in real time to hang out with too but obviously not being in the US your sort of far away. Hopefully we all can meet our goals. Really the holidays are around the corner. Sept tomorrow already.
