I want to lose 15 lbs by the end of 2012
And it is do-able for me. I'm currently 211.5 lbs, and I want to get back down below 200 lbs by year's end. Just challenging myself, and making sure I say this "out loud" to the community.

Holy ISH! I lost 8 lbs and didn't even know it!
So, I haven't been following MFP 100% perfectly, some days I'm over my calorie goal, some days under. But I have been walking more, and have been logging every single damn thing I put in my mouth.
