Anyone working towards anything at the moment?

WOW talking about targets & outside of work to (I work in sales so it’s all target driven & KPI’s when I’m at work)

Weight Loss
My BMI is now down to sitting in the middle of overweight section on the NHS scale (according to NHS BMI Calculator)
Target I want to be by Easter this year, loose another 10 KG that should then get me out of the overweight section so my BMI says I’m at a “healthy weight”

Fitness
I need to increase my fitness, especially now I’ve turned 60 and it’s almost 2 years ago I had ankle surgery, also as I’ve lost weight my body does need toning up 😉 slightly Mrs @goodybags keeps saying I’m looking a bit saggy and will soon need ironing last summer I did a introduction to fitness & healthy eating program which was sponsored by the EFL which was a great help and gave me a kick start but need to do a bit more I know

Diabetes Management
My last Hba1c was 48 (back in September) which myself and all my HCT were happy with, I want to ensure it doesn’t go crazy again even if my GP & DSN are right, when they say we can do a 6 month plan to get me off of Insulin, but I just want to keep my HbA1c at a respectable number
 
my Goals this year keep hba1c levels under 41 ,im trying to manage my diabetes with diet only so still managing to keep my levels within normal range however told last week by my Gp that my cholesterol had shot up so at the moment trying to get that down with diet as well 🙄
