    Congratulations - you look awesome! From one "road mapper" to another - WELL DONE! Keep us updated on your progress!!!

    Thank you! I keep waiting for someone to ask how tall I am or what I weigh. I still hate the numbers.....

    I'm 5'3-1/2". My starting weight was 206. My goal weight is 160. My current weight is 178. They are crazy high for someone my height that wears 10s and a few 8s. Lifting rocks.

    This just goes to show, it's not about losing ten lbs. in a month. It's not even about the number on the scale. It's about how you feel, how strong your body is. You look like you've lost way more than you have, because you've made your body stronger and more muscular. Good for you!

    Yes...I basically had my bmr figured as well as my TDEE. If you go to Helloitsdan profile page there are links there that will head you in the right direction. I hope this helps!!!
