    Plan to achieve that goal:

    I just started (Sunday Sept 28th) doing the 5:2 diet. My eating was out of control and I wanted to see if the 5:2 diet will help with portion control and teach me what it's like to really be hungry. My exercise plan is 3-5 times a week, weights included. At the end of this year I will be 50 so I really want to succeed :smile:

    ^This is what I liked about doing Weight Watchers...when I knew someone was going to see my wight and hold me accountable for my loss, you better friggen believe I was going to lose weight...I wasn't going to be "that woman"! If you don't mind organizing it, I think it's a great idea!

    First name: Michelle
    Height: 5'4"
    Age: 44
    State or Country: Ohio
    Starting Weight in MFP: 142
    Current Weight in MFP: 127
    Goal for year end (92 days left): First to reach my ultimate goal of 125, then start adding muscle to create definition. I want to be able to sit in jeans and not have my muffin top pop out a bit. My BF% is currently 21% and I would like to be 19-20%. I hear this is the only way to lose the dreaded C-section belly. I also want a shaplier behind. My fitness goal is to run a 5K. Doesnt seem like a lot but I HATE running!!
    Plan to achieve that goal: By continuing to do what I have done so far. I know what works for my body. I am eating between 1200-1300 calories per day...cardio 3-4 days a week and weight train 3-4 days a week. As soon as I reach my goal weight of 125, I plan to start eating more calories along with protein so I can build muscle, not just tone as I am now.
    To achieve my fitness goal, I plan to start the C25K program

    Always looking for new friends to help keep me motivated and inspired. We can all learn from one another. Anyone with similar goals can feel free to add me. I'm on daily and love my MFP friends!
