Thank you, Gardenerjoy, for a polite way of stating my goal! Yeah, "realistic" sounds better than "lazy".

As of today, 358 minutes; of that 223 min is cardio and the rest other stuff.

My goal is 5 lbs. I've been struggling and so 5 lbs may not seem like a lot to others but to me it's tough.

I'm diabetic and so I have found loosing weight really hard. I am going to really stick to the glycemic index (South Beach diet is based on this). I try to stick to it as much as I can as a general rule, but I'm not perfect. Too many grains, wine and rum / cokes.

I'm turning 50 in Oct and so I want to get my weight down before that day comes.

Good luck to everyone

start weight - 157
birthday goal weight - 140
ultimate goal weight - 125
