    21lbs since my highest weight (October)...it took me a while to get motivated (Thanksgiving, Christmas, Bday, and New Years) and to even hear about this website! But I'm glad I did!!:bigsmile:

    At LEAST 3 days at the gym with minimum of 20 mins cardio (usually on an elliptical machine) and then alternating weight training on upper and lower body and abs.
    I'm counting points (and doing MFP calories) on Weight Watchers. I lost about 45 lbs when I was in High School doing WW with my mom. So it's easy for me to make habit in my life (writing things down, drinking water, figuring out points, etc.)

    I've recently upped my workouts to 4/5 days a week with at LEAST 30 mins of cardio...also incorporating fitness classes.

    Thanks so much for your support and best wishes to you on this journey! :heart: :drinker: :flowerforyou: We can do it!!
