I love surveys. Finally made up my mind to do this...

1. What's your top weight, current weight and target?
Top weight was 197 lbs. Actually it was around 200 lbs (that was after I had eaten) but seeing 2-0-0 on the scale is what kickstarted me into a lifestyle change.
My current weight is 143.8 (although this morning, it read 144.5 but it's my TOM) and that is the smallest I have been since... I don't know, middle school.
My goal weight used to be 140 lbs but now I think it's going to be 135 lbs.

2. How tall are you?
5'5"

3. What's your family situation?
I live with my parents and my sister

4. Where do you live?
See above

5. One GOOD book.
That is terribly difficult but I'll give you one of my three favourites- Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte

6. One GOOD song.
This is so tough! Ok... Is It Love by Iio

7. One GOOD TV show.
Arrested Development. Period.

8. One awesome food you don't want to live without.
God. I don't know. I don't really have one food. It's just food in general

9. One weight loss lie you've heard.
Eating nothing but protein is perfectly okay

10. The best tip you've received with regard to long lasting slimness.
Drink lots of water.

1. What's your top weight, current weight and target?

My highest weight ever was about 160, but that was about ten years ago and it was very brief. My current weight is 130. My target weight is 115, but if I find I'm content at 120, I may stay there. I have felt my most comfortable between 105 and 125.

2. How tall are you?
5'5"

3. What's your family situation?
Married to a fabulous fella.

4. Where do you live?
Ohio

5. One GOOD book.
Just one? I like everything from Shakespeare to comic books. Voracious, varied reader is me.

6. One GOOD song.
I'm a huge Lady Gaga fan. I tend to like the songs that don't wind up as singles, or at least aren't as big of hits as her famous stuff that everybody knows, like "Boys, Boys, Boys" or "Summerboy" or "Teeth."

7. One GOOD TV show.
Netflix is a helluva drug. I've been mainlining old TV series like crazy. Right now I'm watching season 6 of The X-Files.

8. One awesome food you don't want to live without.
If I don't get sushi at least once a month, I feel deprived.

9. One weight loss lie you've heard.
Muscle weighs more than fat.

10. The best tip you've received with regard to long lasting slimness.
Eating from dessert plates gives you a more appropriate dinner portion size.
