    SW: 251 (01/29/12)
    CW: 241
    GW: 220 (for month of Feb., I know that's a bit dramatic, but my doc put me back on Metformin for PCOS which makes me drop weight like it's nothing)

    Current measurements-
    Bust: 44
    Waist: 48
    Hips: 47

    The only exercise I really get in is 30 minutes of yoga or pilates 4-5 days/week. I like it cause I can do it even when I'm tired from work and it keeps me curvy in all the right places :tongue:

    LOVE IT.

    SW- 145
    GW- 135

    BRING IT.

    I'm on a 1200 calorie a day diet, with 500 calorie workout at home in the morning, then a 2 hour workout at the gym when husband gets home. I'm on day 10 and i've lost (at least) 6 pounds. I know i saw 155 sometime before i started, but i'm putting 152 as my real beginning, hopefully this is a snap!

    I'm in!

    SW: 232 on Jan 2, 2012
    CW: 219
    GW for Feb: 204

    I'm on a modified paleo diet (no grain, no dairy, no fruit, carb goal: 25/day, one cheat day a week) for a month now. I log anyway but I don't have a particular calorie goal.

    My goal for February is to get to the gym 3 days a week, and to cheat on cheat day but not get too carried away.

    So back to update my stats.

    CW- 294.5
    GW- 280

    No measurements this time around. I'm just getting back into the weight loss routine and just imputing things slowly as I get accustomed to them. Right now my focus is on exercise and getting comfortable with that. This month I hope to sort out my diet so I can see how much I need to keep up with exercise as well as help me continue to lose weight. Good luck everyone!!! Feel free to add me as a friend. I'm here to cheer you on!!!

    Changed my weigh in day to Wednesday, starting today (instead of Friday). I'm down 3lbs since Friday so I have to edit my starting/goal weight from my initial post. Here it goes:

    Starting Weight- 262
    Goal Weight- 252
    Fitness Plan- Purchased February Fitness Class pass to attend Zumba, Kickboxing, and Boot Camp.
    Diet Plan- Continue doing what I'm doing; Increase protein, veggies and fruit and decrease carbs. Eat balanced at each meal.

    And of course log in daily on MFP =)
