So I am new to MFP but i'm hoping it can help me stay in control of my goal. I'm a young mother, wife, and nursing student (yay) and I will be graduating in a few months! I want to look my best plus i have gained 20 lbs since I have started nursing school so its only right I lose it before walking across that stage. My ultimate goal is to be 145 lbs. I am very short and I have never been 120 which is what im suppose to weigh (yeah right). I think I look Fabulous at 145 lbs so thats what i'm aiming for. I can be a roller coaster and go up and down with my eating habits and exercise. It depends and my emotions and stress level so hopefully this site can be a friendly reminder and support structure.


Wish me luck!

  • yay i'm short too ! lol . i think around 140lbs is a good weight for my height too . (i'm 5'4)
  • i'm shorter but i have always been solid and muscular so i have a different body type. plus i have 2 boys so i need to be more realistic. last time i saw 125 was freshmen year in highshool lol. dont think i want to be that tiny but would love to in shape and sexy again...thats what im looking forward to :wink:

    Yah, sometimes the target weight doesn't consider body types, I'm 226 trying to get down to 190.. It says my max is 178.. but if i got that low I'd probably look like a Bobble-head. I'm new here too so I'll send you a Friend Request. Good Luck!

    I'm a Dec '11 joiner too! Best of luck with your roller coaster! I'm exactly the same, my weight isn't a constant day-to-day figure - sad cat!
