I just started using myfitnesspal today. The reason that I've decided to start working out is that my best friend's wedding is in August and when I went to pick-up/try on my dress last weekend it was a bit of a downer. Not only did I need my mom to help my zip and hook my into my dress, but when I was strapped in I couldn't breath.
I think if I lose 5 to 10 lbs and tone up my tummy I'll be able to breath and enjoy a meal at the reception.
Currently I weight 126 lbs. I would like to get to 115 lbs, but if I get down to 120 I'll be happy. I've got a little over 8 weeks and I think if I work out for at least 30 minutes a day for the next 8 weeks and watch what I eat I should be in good shape.
Once I get in shape I want to stay in shape. Hopefully once I get into the habit of a workout then maybe I'll stay active.
