    I'm 5'9 and I currently weight about 160lbs. I started out at 215lbs after having my son. I officially began logging in my weight loss progress in mid January. I try to do cardio about 5 times a week and I also sometimes do circuit training following the Jillian Michaels shred DVD. My goal weight is 145lbs. I wanted to lose so much weight so fast but I realized that a loss was a loss whether it was 1 pound or 4 pounds. Stay focused and stay motivated. And no matter if you go off your calories just stay moving and work out. Best of luck**

    Hi my name is Nadine and I'm pretty close at what you are looking for.

    I'm 5' 8, I was 238 pounds 2 years ago and now I'm at 157 pounds, my goal is 140 pounds.

    To let you know, 10 years ago my heaviest was at 280 pounds.

    My diary is open to friends.

    My highest weight was 219 (9-months pregnant) but only dropped to 199 after my daughter was born.

    Now my weight fluctuates between 145-150.

    I am just starting my weight loss journey. Im 50 yrs old and am wanting to shed some pounds. I see a lot of awesome success stories. What is the key to all of your successes? I recently started the HCG diet. Which is only like 500-600 cal a day for 40 days. I also started going to the gym doing 30 min of Arc Trainer and about 30 min. of weight training. Gotta lose this flat tire!

    NOOOOO! Not the HCG diet. Don't do it. Just set up a very small deficit and eat like that for as long as it takes. Eat 1500 calories daily plus all your exercise calories. You only have 20 lbs to lose... do it slowly.

    The other day I had a salad with baked chicken in it with a SMAAAALL amt. of Caesar dressing and I felt like I had cheated with chocolate cake! lol I guess we always believe that less calories is better.

    I started out somewhere over 200 lbs (refused to get on the scale but I was 196 when I got brave enough, after starting to lose weight). I am now 155 lbs. I am 5'8".
