Current weight: 63 kg : 139 lbs
Target weight: 55 kg : 121 lbs
Height: 5'1

04/11/15 : 139 lbs

    I'm kind of on the same timeline as you for my goal, however mine is to be ready to go in and get my wedding dress fitted in January.

    I'm 5'5 and 156lbs.

    I hear you girl. I was diagnosed with POVS in 2011. My only option was to lose weight.
    Lost some weight, but never reached my goal weight. Had a baby boy in 2012 and then kept telling myself there is always time !!!!
    I want to make a permanent change now. Not just go up and down :) Being in my 30s reminds me of all the
    complications I may go through, like diabetes, due to POVS and most importantly not being able to have a second bub.
