Weight goals...

Thanks girls!! I have to say I came home as usual - checked LIW and wasn't sure I wanted to go to the gym until I read this post!! I went and instead of my usual cardio / weights I did a pilates class. Wow I feel terrific and am def. inspired by this thread!!!!

Oh and to answer it - I want to tone up and don't want to lose - maybe 4 lbs - but really want to learn to eat better. A small food budget and living on your own = not the best dinner choices!!

Love the cartoons, very true!

It is amazing how many people respond to anything about weight. we can never be satisfied. I would like to drop 15lbs mby wedding day. Easier said then done and my fh can't afford to lose any so I am on my own for meals or have to make 2. A little more work but, I am determined to do it.

I am getting my butt into LA Weightloss!

Was: 155 a year ago
CW: 126
GW: 105
Hopefully by May I will reach my goal!

oh no, if this is true what about me?! i'm 5'10...am i gonna be a giant?!

I used to be hardcore with the gym...I dont' know how I did it actually school, jobs, and the gym 5-7days/week! Anyway since I moved in w/FH...its been quite hard. Ughh the motivation to be the first to get out of bed when its still dark out , while someone else gets to sleep in...and um not to mention walk in neg degree weather to the gym (im in NYC so no car =( ....well it's not very good. Anyways...Im trying to get back into gear. I been trying but its stressful I work really long hrs..I get out at 8:30 and come home to well...just eat. It *****. I really think my job is making me fat...haha. Excuses excuses...I could use some motivation though....where did it all go??

btw I'm 5'2' too!!!

Don't worry about towering over everyone because I will be there. I want to loose at least 50 lbs before the wedding, but I am 6 feet tall! I am really tall and FH is about 6'5''. So I would like to drop a bit of weight and I cannot get myself motivated at all!! I know I can do it, I have joined WW before and done okay 10-12 lbs and then quit...I just get very impatient. I really need to go to the gym...Synergy keeps taking money every month and i never go! If anyone goes to the one in Massapequa, let me know...I'll meet you there! I need friends to encourage me and go with me!!!

When i met FH, i was skinny, about 113
pounds

Now all these years later i find myself at 133 and very flabby lol awful
i have no motivation to eat right, or work out, im avoiding dress shopping, but i think i should just go and maybe that will make me want to get in shape before i buy the dress, maybe just try on a few styles and see what needs improvement

My GW is 120
i could never be 113 again, only way is if i did massive amounts of coke and vicodin lol

hey girls, as a future dietitan i recommend not worrying about the number of your weight and just be concerned with how you look and feel, a lot of u girls talked about being toned and dont forget muscle ways more than fat which can increase your weight..as for me im 130 lbs and 5'3...i use to be 120 until my soph yr of college and i have struggled with 10lbs ever since going from 120-130...but i blame it on my dd chest lol...i like it best with eva mendes said, she doesnt like to be concerned with her weight she goes by the jean size diet lol..she stays between a 27 and 29

That's good advice. I know my weight fluctuates as much as 5 pounds, depending on what time of the month it is for me. So I can't really go by the scale. But when my size 6's start feeling tight, that's when it's time to skip dessert and hit the gym the next day.

BTW, I'm getting some nice motivation from this thread - grad school classes just started up again, and in addition to that I am running an after-school club at my high school, so I have so little free time for the gym. But you girls are inspiring me - I'll find some way to squeeze it in this week, I have to!

Really, i saw the pics from your e-party and you couldn't tell

Gosh I need to get to work on my weight. i really thought that going away on SB in two months would motivate me but I really have been lazy with the cold weather.

I am 5'9

CW: 145-147
GW: 135-130

So about 20 lbs to my goal...except for the fact that when I work out I usually dont lose the pounds but slim my figure.

Good Luck '08 girls ROCK!
