Hi everyone. Below is a prom picture of me at 180lbs, size 16. After prom I started weight watchers and lost the first 30lbs from Aug 2005 to around February 2006 (about 6 months time). I lost a bit more after that and I have maintained a size 8 (~138lbs). I've begun tracking again because I want to get down to my final goal weight of 120-125lbs (I'm 5'2) and I would like to tone my thighs/butt/arms. I did minimal exercise and my weight was mostly just watching what I ate however; I did do some zumba and light hiking.

    Thanks everyone! I'm keeping this for motivation to get to 120 and finally be done with all this counting! Nerdy me likes counting a little though... :]

    I'm not very good at exercising and I know I need to do that to tone but I hate it so much. :[ I do long walks with my energetic puppy every day but that's about it right now.

    Oh, you said you hate exercising but wanna tone. Go to you tube and type in what body part you wanna focus on. I do the work outs for the butt and stomach. I've been doing the ones for my butt since I was 12. It's no wonder people say I have a Kim Kardashian butt haha :) They get hard to do sometimes and you definitely feel it the next day but they work!
