Looking for Friends

Hi everybody! I'm so excited about finally finding a site that has realistic results! I currently weigh 157 lbs and have lost 5 lbs since summer started, but I really want to get to around my healthy ideal weight for my height. Since I'm a little less than 5'4, i found out that 157 isn't the best weight and my BMI is like, 26%. I don't really like that number, so I really want to get to at least 23%. I also need to shape up becasue I want to be better so when my family looks at me, they can be proud of me and not have to worry about how healthy I am. :smile: I think those are some good motivations.

    Those are some good motivations or reasons to take care of yourself. I think you might be your own worse critic. Congratulate yourself for losing pounds thus far and keep up the work in progress. Never let discouragement cause you to give up the good you have accomplished. :flowerforyou:

    A little bit about me. I am not needing to gain or lose pounds; however, I am interested in learning more about healthy foods and taking good care of my body. I believe some people have a false perception of what is good and what is bad when it comes to food and that is why they have trouble with weight. Just my opinion.

    I am always trying to understand more of nutrition and what keeps us healthy. I know its not the only thing that matters in terms of health, but nutrition is so very essential.

    I don't think I have a weight problem, but I am into learning about anti-aging foods. You know foods that keep you young and if any foods reverses father time.

    I am always ready to cheer you on if you need some courage.
