in Introduce Yourself
I am currently in my healthy weight range for my BMI, but I'm at the high end. I started working out 4 weeks ago with the C25K program and it been great so far. I only want to lose a max of 20lbs, but I'm really just looking to get toned and healthy. Add me if you're in the same situation!

    That's about what i had - started this time around at 144 and would love to be 120-125.

    But having a lot of issues getting toned as I cannot lift weights, high cardio is extremely difficult for me, and basically all I can do is yoga and walking due to medical issues.

    But I'm trying to incorporate some light jogging/ walking more/ light weightlifting. Having medical issues sucks. I used to crossfit, and I felt great... then came Fibromyalgia and now it's difficult to just carry a 30 pound box across the warehouse where I work :(

    Same boat.. 6.5 down 7.5 to go (140 goal) but i might go to 135. I'm trying to see if dropping the last few will help my problem areas since plyometrics/intense-moderate lifting/and cardio can only do so much for my problem areas without dropping weight/fat. Feel free to add!

    I am 13-18 pounds above my desired weight (137-142 lbs)... The lowest I have ever been as an adult was 137 and at that point I was a size 6 . Right now I am 155.5 and a size 10-12.

    Have lost 50 pounds. Got 20 more to go. But I want to lose all that in body fat. That's the hardest part.

    My goal is to lose 8-10 pounds. Maybe that's not a lot but it seems the closer you are to your ideal weight the harder it is for the pounds to come off!

    Set fitness goals. The rest will follow. Have patience and really attack your workouts. And lift, if you can physically.
