    Hey everyone. Please feel free to add me too. I'm 31, 5'2", and currently 235. I've lost 2 pounds this week, even with the holiday, so I want to keep it going. I'm trying to lose about 115 lbs. I am really motivated this time to lose weight, even though I've been trying for a long time. I actually purchased and BodyMedia Fit a couple of years ago to track my calorie burn and steps and wear it all the time, but don't really track religiously. My husband bought me the Withings scale for Christmas, and I have MFP to track calorie intake now. I have all these in place and my husband who is also trying to get healthy, but I need female friends to encourage me and support me throughout this journey. Let's have this new year mean new bodies for all of us.

    Started with MFP at 344lbs. in Dec 2011 with a goal of losing 94lbs to get back down to 250lbs. Lost 66lbs from Dec 2011 to Thanksgiving 2012.

    Gained back 6lbs due to bad eating and not being able to exercise at the gym due to a hernia.

    Went in for surgery on Dec 14th and hate sitting around during recovery. Probably not going to be able to exercise at the gym until February, so I am trying to eat better so I don't gain anymore weight.

    I want 2013 to be a good year and lose the 46lbs to reach my FIRST goal weight!

    Always looking for new MFP friends!

    My original goal was to lose 180 lbs. I have 122 to go. This is really important to me so I only want to surround myself with people who are taking it as seriously as I am. I delete friends that frequently don't log in. I log in daily. I think this process really only works if you are honest about your calorie tracking. I also find it incredibly important to stay positive. Otherwise the sheer size of my goal would overwhelm me. I can't afford to take on pity party friends that whine they wanna quit everytime it gets hard. I can't let anyone's negativity poison me.

    About me:
    My name is Laura. I'm 35. New to running, just finished my 1st 5k a month ago.
    SW 330
    CW 272
    UGW 150
    Current goal- lose 2 more lbs by New Years
    Next goal- reach 255 by Valentines!
