    Hi All! I'm Bria and I'm 25 years old, a graduate student in a pretty stressful program. My weight fluctuates quite a bit, so my real goal is to just establish some sort of equilibrium I can deal with for the rest of my life! I am currently ~140lb, but my goal is 125. My brother is getting married on 3 July of this year, and I really want to lose those 15 lbs before the wedding!

    ...and I really want to buy a new VS bikini. THAT is scary. :embarassed:

    I love running but I'm not very good at it (strange, right?!) so I am registering for progressively longer races all spring. First 5k is 12 February...brrr!!! Also into Bikram yoga - is anyone else? I'm not even sure if it is a good workout but man, is it exhausting!!

    best of luck to everyone! <3

    Hi! I'd love to join this!

    I'm a 24 year old education students. This summer (mid-July) I will be moving back to Europe to finally be back with my boyfriend after almost a year physically apart while I'm back in Canada finishing my second degree (except for some fantastic trips that he has spoiled me with). This summer will be a very happy one, and I want to greet it feeling fantastic in my own skin, incredibly healthy and excited to begin the next phase of my life :)

    Bikhram is definitley a workout! That being said, time to do some Ashtanga :)

    I wish that exercise could get rid of twin skin! I am going to try to loose as much of my belly fast as possible so that at least I can look good in a one piece. I'm afraid my bikinis went away with my two bundles of joy :)

    My current weight is 149.2. I want to be 141 by summer's start. Last spring, I got down to 146.8. That was the lowest I had been in 12 years. I know I can get down to 141 this time if I just stick with it this time! I work full time and have 4 large dogs. I want to have smaller thighs in my lycra biking shorts. They always make me feel a little self-conscious.

    Alright friends, I am more motivated then ever to get down to 200 lbs!!! I just got off the phone with my older sister and told her about my weight loss goals.... she basically laughed at me and told me good luck trying!! I will not let her negativity get to me, even though I feel her behavior is very unfortunate and hurtful. The next time I will see my family will be during the summer..and honestly I am looking forward to getting compliments on my body rather than criticism.

    I am right there with you! I hate the post-baby skin that I have. Thank goodness that one-piece, vintage-inspired suits are totally in style now!

    Good morning everyone. So first weigh in I've lost 2 lbs. I weighed in at 213. I'm so proud of myself that's without really working out. I plan to add workouts next week. I'm just trying to get my body used to this limited calorie intake. Have a great day

    OOff - feeling like I need a little motivation this morning - I was so exhausted yesterday that I went to bed right after dinner and skipped my workout. :mad:

    Going to try to squeeze one in to my busy day today....

    I weighed in at the gym last night, 249...I thought I gained weight, but not really bad news because I guessed that is how much I weighed. I am hoping to be at 247 by next weigh in
