    Hello!

    GW: 175

    I'm reaching for a goal weight of 175lbs as I'm currently 190lbs and a tight size 10, comfortable size 12. My problem is I'm a 38G cup with back issues. Successfully endured back surgery in July and now I'm able to start exercising :) I'm doing Winsor Pilates and its a fantastic workout to build lean muscle. I've decided when I reach 175lb I'll see what I look like in a bikini and go from there...lol

    Feel free to add me too!

    Age: 40

    State: Texas

    Current Weight: 151

    Goal Weight: 140

    Favorite Healthy Snack: Chocolate (it's rich in magnesium!)

    Favorite Exercise: Rowing crew and cycling

    I got "sick" last year and gained about 10 lbs from meds and they need to GO, but I'm having a hard time doing it. It's not from lack of trying...far from it! The pounds are just being stubborn, I guess. Obviously, they don't care that I wear spandex on the weekends.

    Location : Washington State

    Start Weight: 147

    Current Weight 137

    Goal Weight: 120-130

    Favorite Healthy Snack: salt and peppered cucumbers and nonfat greek yogurt with honey :)

    I don't really care about the numbers at this point. I just want to get fit again like my track/tennis/basketball days of high school. I got asthma in junior high which conflicted with my sports severely. Also, college has made me lazy. My actual goals are to bulk up my arms, tone my stomach, and shave the excess fat off my legs and hips. I know once I gain more muscle I will end up weighing more but that is not something I'm going to concern myself with.
