    To be honest, I am very comfortable in my skin at 135 :) The next ten pounds are more or less me being picky about specific areas of my body.

    I'm 5ft and would love to lose 50lbs but at my age I don't know if that is realistic. I lost 30 about 3 years ago and gained most of it back. I need to find motivation again. Right now I have none and am feeling really bad about myself.

    5.2 new to my fitness pal. Would like to loose 20. I exercise, normally run anywhere between 10 and 20 miles a week, depending on what I"m training for. But my eating, it's nightmare :o

    I am 4'9 and not really looking to lose much. I basically maintain well between 95-96 lbs, but I'd like to lose another 2 or 3 pounds. People keep telling me that those last pounds won't make a difference but I think they will. Even if not, I like the idea of having a little wiggle room and maintaining from 92-95 lbs. I also lift and run/elliptical. Feel free to add me :)
