Hi Everyone.

I am new to this forum but not new to dieting. About 2.5 years ago i went down from 160 to 132pounds with good diet and excercise. However i have gained most of it back and today i am back to 162!
I am 5'7 and 162 pounds my goal weight is 125! i know i can do it but its just so hard to get in the groove. Anyone out there in the same height and weight range as I am? I need serious motivation!

    Welcome to the site! I'm about 5'9" and 154 right now, but I'm aiming at 135. But realisticly, I think 140 will be a bettery number for my body frame & curves, I guess we'll see when I get there!

    Best of luck!

    Hello
    Just joined and looking forward to watching how this turns out, This is all new to me watching what the calorie count is and so far having a hard time staying in the limits for protein and sodium
    (both over) and under in the calories. Any suggestions. I am filling this out midday and then trying to stick to or eliminate where I need to.

    I'm 5'5 and went from 155lbs to 130lbs...my goal is 125lbs too. You're taller than me but we have the same goal. Now that I have hit 130lbs I have been able to maintain it for a little over a year...I'm still working on that last five pounds...which has been the biggest challenge...I can't seem to break the 130 plateau...but I'm still determined! When I think about this weight loss journey, I feel so proud...Excercise, excercise, excercise!!!! It's a LIFESTYLE change...for LIFE! Not a dieting change!
