    Hi ladies,

Not being the biggest person in the room - being comfortable in clothes that I wear - not having to resort to the plus sized area in all stores - being comfortable naked - feeling attractive to myself and to others (compliments etc) - looking at old photos and being proud of where I am currently

    Is it too late to join?

    c w: 180
    h w: 200
    goal: 135

    Yes - I have more than 35 to go, but this is a good starting point for me...

    Least favorite - belly & hips
    most favorite - bottom
    motivation - getting married in less than 2 month (not my time line)
    planning a cruise in May of next year to celebrate getting my bachelor's degree and delayed honeymoon.

    I work full time and go to school usually 3/4 time - losing weight that I have gained since surgery and quitting smoking is getting tougher to do all the time...

    This sounds great! The more I interact with other people with the same goals, the better I seem to be doing. I'd love to be a part of your challenge. I currently have just under 40 pounds to lose. I have lost 8 pounds in 40 days and I want to keep up that pace.

    What is your favorite body part? My boobs, they make me feel good because they take the eyes off my icky belly

    What motivates you? my son. I want to be healthy and teach him how to be healthy while he is a child so he has healthy habits and doesn't have to learn how to do this later in life. I am also thinking about having another baby but I am getting older (30 now) and I know another pregnancy would be hard on my body so I'd like to be in the best shape possible.

    Timeline in which you would like to lose 35lbs? 5-6 pounds per month so April for 35 pounds and May for 40 pounds.
  • Count me in! I have lost 31 pounds so far, since 8/8/12 and I want to lose another 35 pounds or so. It feels so good to be almost half way to my goal, especially when I have so much to lose. I want to wear a bathing suit on Spring Break and look decent in it.

    Current Weight: 231
    Goal Weight: 195
    Heaviest Weight: started at 262 on 8/8/12. I'm down 31 pounds.

    What is your least favorite body part? stomach and bat wings
    What is your favorite body part? my big booty
    What motivates you? trying on clothes keeps me going.
