Chubby in Canada?

Options
Hey everyone! I am somewhat new to this site (its the end of my first week) and thought now would be a good time to make friends and see if there is anyone else on the site fighting the flab in Canada :)

My stats: Female, 5"6, 158 lbs (starting), 150 lbs (first goal), 140 lbs (second goal), 130 lbs (ultimate goal), and I would like to get there by August 1st (I get one month off of school in the summer and I plan to spend it on the beach!... Bring on the bikinis!) :)

    Hiya!

    Am also trying to work off the winter hibernation weight in Canada (though the constant COLD temperatures aren't helping! Ugh)
    I joined MFP in October - starting weight 191, 5'3'
    Am currently at 168 - down 23 pounds :). My goal weight for now is 160, after that I'll re-assess!!

    Feel free to add me as a friend! :) Good luck!


    EDIT: OMG, you're from T-Bay too! Wicked :)

    Hi there! I am fairly new too, started thursday. I find this site has totally got me pumped & inspired ... I was 'going it alone' from Jan - mid March, and getting nowhere, when on a 'bad' day I found MFP. There is no looking back!

    My stats:
    5"7, 190 lbs.... I have never ever been this big in my life.
    My goals are to to be at 180 by May 12th, 170 by June 23, and 160 by August 4th, 150 by Oct 13, 140 by Dec 22, and 135 by March 2012. My smallest weight has been 135, and my 'homeostasis weight' is around 145-150.

    I have this great bikini that I can't wait to wear again - I hear you sista!

    I'm up for the hard work & dedication!

    Wow, quite amazing how many Canadian Lads and Ladies are to be found here. From Ontario myself, just joined here about 10 days ago and on the road to more fitness but less weight, about 45 pounds to go, just about 1 pound for every year I have lived:). Life is good. You certainly found the right place to keep you going.
