Default Hello to all of you! I'm about halfway there!

Hi all.

I'm 33 years old, married for 10 years and we have three boys: Henry is 15 mos, Miles is 7 and Connor is 9. I work from home as a copy writer. I love to read and love music...everything from Bob Dylan to Miles Davis to Beethoven.

I started this journey at 313 pounds. Currently I'm 252. I was down to 242 in October and then really stagnated, then gained up to 261 over the holidays and during a 10-day vacation to Disney World.

I'm aggressively journaling and counting calories, my goal is to average 1650 a day (I'm still nursing our youngest so my metabolic rate is high right now) with at least 40g of fiber a day and less than the standard RDA of fats.

I do less well with exercise. Still looking for something I really like.

My current goal weight is 175, so I've got about 77 pounds to go...

Look forward to meeting others who are on the same path.

Hello and Anne. Congratulations on losing so much already and being determined to continue until you get to goal. I am sure you will shift those last 75 lbs before you know it.

I look forward to getting to know you better, why not join us on the daily thread. I think we are at #808 now.

Bye for now,

Hugs,

Ammi
