I'm turning 30 this year...

Options
And I plan on being 50lbs lighter by then (September 10). Woohoo! Ultimately, I hope to be 100lbs... I'm currently 182lbs and barely 5 feet tall.

I'm really excited about this "Get Gorgeous" program I'm doing for myself. Since I was overweight for most of my life, I can't wait to be healthy and slim in the second half.

I'm not following a specific diet - just eating healthy basically. And I'm exercising as much as I can, normally about 30min in the morning and another 30min to an hour in the evening 4 or 5 times a week.

I look forward to "hanging out" with you guys and swapping diet/fitness secrets. :smile:

    Forgot to mention that I'm starting out my exercise regime with Jillian Michael's 30 Day Shred in the morning and Barry's Boot Camp in the evening. On top of that I try to do additional cardio (walking, jogging, elliptical trainer).
