As promised! Here are my S.M.A.R.T. health goals I am declaring for 2012:

1 - I will lose 20lbs by Aug 3, 2012
2 - I will drink 64oz of water daily
3 - I will train for and complete the WarriorDash on Sept 22, 2012

Lets breakdown how these are S.M.A.R.T, or at least one of them.

First what does S.M.A.R.T. stand for?
Specific
Measurable
Attainable
Realistic / Revisable
Time Bound

Do you see how each is S.M.A.R.T.? Here is the first one, see if you can figure out the other two and then maybe use these to inspire your own!
1 - I will lose 20lbs by Aug 3, 2012
Specific - lose 20lbs (at current gulp! 147, that brings me to a much healthier 127)
Measurable - 20lbs is an amount, unlike just saying I will lose weight
Attainable - 20lbs in 8 months is only 2.5lbs a month!
Realistic / Revisable - 40lbs for a goal weight of 107 is NOT realistic, 127 is my previous high average when I was living more healthfully. Revisable as I may hit my goal and go farther!
Time Bound - goal date is 8 months out
2 - I will drink 64oz of water daily

3 - I will train for and complete the WarriorDash on Sept 22, 2012
