Default Room for a (not so) little one?!

Hi!

I only found this site recently and I LOVE it!!

I´m feeling really motivated at the moment but there´s no such thing as too much support!! I have a long way to go but i plan to get to my goal weight one day! I´ve decided on a goal weight of 160lbs, although I expect this is still higher than the charts ideal weight for my height (5´6"). Still, I´ll worry about that when I get to 160!!!

Can´t wait to get to know you all!!

Wow! Thanks for the warm welcome ladies!!!

I´m going for a run/wobble/cardiac arrest on my Mum´s treadmill then I´m off to get my hair done. My BF arrives tonight for the weekend so I´ve got loads to do today but I´ll check back in later and have a proper nosey around then!

Welcome! My goal is 160 too (I'm 5'7".) The way I look at it is even if it is above the "normal" weight on charts, it's a whole lot healthier than the weight we're at now. I wish you well on your weight loss and new lifestyle!

Thanks for the welcome. I know exactly what you mean about having 160lbs as a goal, even if it´s considered above 'healthy'! I´m sure my body would prefer me to be 160lbs than to stay as I am lol!!!
