I am so ecstatic!! Under 150! That was my dreamy and lofty goal back on July 9, 2011, and I can't believe I'm here!! When I started this new life my conservative goal was to get to 165lbs and simply not register as overweight when I calculated my BMI. But secretly and honestly, my true goal was to weigh 150lbs or less and wear a size 6 again. I have done BOTH! That, and I'm a runner for the first time in my life. My first 5K is coming up in a few weeks. In retrospect, what worked for me: weighing my food so that I learned what a real portion should be and look like, no snacking between meals, eating loads and loads of green leafy veggies (raw and cooked), and wearing a pedometer every day and getting 10,000 steps daily. I never thought I'd be here again. I had tried everything. I have a lifestyle that is easy to manage and control and that works for me.I'd like to see 145lbs maybe, by my 1 year anniversary of starting this new life.
