Starting weight: 255 lbs
Current weight: 234 lbs
Goal weight: 150 lbs
Since January 2012 and now, with a baby inbetween, I have lost 21 lbs. 21 lbs is 20% of the 105 lbs I'm looking to get rid of.
During my pregnancy I stopped MFP because it made me sick to think about food. Now I've been slowly getting back into logging in my food, and it feels less and less like a chore. I still need the go ahead from my doctor for full activity after the c-section, but I plan on starting up the kinect for some of the low impact zumba. I'm breastfeeding a month-old baby, so that should kill some calories. I know I've said I was ready before, but I'm going to be 36 on Thanksgiving. I have 4 kids. I need to fix this now. The last 20 years have been way too fat.
So what am I looking for by posting this? I don't know, really. I'm 1/5th of the way to my goal. I need friends, motivation and I'm pretty sure a kick in my overly large *kitten* wouldn't hurt - seriously, it wouldn't hurt - it's so freaking big, I wouldn't even know.
