Definitely lots of good advice on here. But how is it possible that so many of you girls want to drop to 110 or so pounds? Are a bunch of you really petite? I'm not trying to be mean, but that is soooooo skinny - just want to make sure you're being healthy and are keeping up the strength you need to make vendors cower before you and offer you lower rates.

Yea Dava I'm definitely petite I'm almost 5'2' so 110 is definitely a normal healthy weight for me! Thanks for caring

---

OH WOW i am surprised that you're also 5'2 definitely thought you were taller

---

Well Denise I'm actually a very tall 5'2'

Well i want to be 115-118...I am 5'2 and yeah it makes a big difference...I've been 125 and still had some fat

---

Get out Denise...you put on a very tall appearance then because I thought you were at least 5'6' or 5'7'...I dont' know why I thought that though

---

Both of you I thought were at least 5'6' - Melissa - when I saw you at the GTG, I was like 'WOW! She's tiny!'. I just wanted to pick you up and hold you.

cw: 135
goal: 125

I lost 100 lbs by doing jenny craig for two months (or try nutrisystem). I learned how to portion my food, count calories, and eat correctly. You actually eat a lot, but you lose weight. It took me 11 months to lose 100 lbs.

After I learned I then applied that to real life b/c I knew I couldn't be a Jenny craig for my entire life. I lost 30 lbs on jenny and then 70lbs on my own by working out and eatig right.
I've kept the 100lbs off for over a year and now I am ready to lose my final 40lbs.

I am going on nutrisystem (same as Jenny craig) to get myself back on track for like a month or so and then go from there. I hope to lost the 40 lbs by the end of the summer and then keep it off untill the wedding in april 2008.

You have to want it. I wanted to be healthy and went for it. Now I want to look hot in my wedding dress and be healthy so I am motivated.

Good luck Ladies!!

Well...I joined WW 2 weeks ago...last week I lost 3 and I just went to the doc today, and it looks like I lost another pound. I have not worked out though...so that is just from changing my eating habits...which were horrible.

When I first met me FH I was about 40 pds lighter....we just started eating out all of the time, and now it is so hard to go back to eating right. I worked in a gym for 8 years, and when I graduated college I got a full time job...so I definitley do not work out like I used to. I hate working out....but I always feel better after I do it. I feel good these last few weeks...I want to look amazing at my wedding!! It is my top priority this year....lol..sad...but I feel gross about myself. I mean, I can't even find a cocktail dress to wear to a wedding, let alone a wedding gown!! So...I am right there with you girls. I want to lose about 60 pds...maybe a lil unrealistic...but 40-50 would be nice!!

Well...I am going to try and keep on track...good luck girls!!

You know, I get teased a lot for being short (I thought we were passed 2nd grade) but it seems like many women are less than 5'3!

---

Can you even imagine that in 2nd I was one of the tallest people in my grade...what the heck happened to me

I think with all of us having similar goals, we can all work together and maybe give a weekly update of our progress. If we all encourage each other it will make things a lot easier.

---

Good idea.

Some of us have the same story...we all got a little too comfortable after we started going out with our FH. Going out to eat every weekend...I know. When I met FH I weighed about 128 lbs.(Sept 2000) by July 2004 I weighed about 157. So I was tired of looking at pictures b4 I met FH...so I went on a serious diet...totally changed my eating habits. Cut down on the carbs...ate wheat pita bread instead of a roll w/ lunch...more salads...chicken etc. Went back to excercising..treadmill...crunches...and by Aug. 2005 got down to 115 lbs... less than when I met FH. (He said I had lost too much) I don't want to lose any more b/c I don't want to look like a skeleton.

My goal is to keep on track and keep the weigh off. It's hard especially around the holidays...(I gained 5lbs. btw Thanksgiving & New Years) but you just have to keep focused and look forward to looking awesome on your special day!!!

BTW...I'm 5'2'

I'm 5'2 115-120lb

For my wedding, well actually for the honeymoon...I'd like to be a toned 110. Right now I'm not even a little toned! FH and I have been gym whores the last two weeks, so we're on the right track!

Is everyone 5'2? I'm gonna tower over all of you with my 5'6 at the next GTG!!!!

I'm shorter than 5'1 and I'm very fond of my sneakers!

I want to lose 10lbs for my wedding. I lost 4 pounds already!

FH always makes fun of me when I have no shoes or my sneakers on...he is 6'. The best is when I'm in the hallway at work at the end of the day. I 'll have my coat on and trying to get through the crowd of kids and the students think I'm another student.
