Talking 20 lbs. LOST Plus "Birthday Goal Weight"!

Hi!

I haven't been here in a while BUT! Since I've been here, I've lost 20 lbs.! (okay, it went up and THEN it went down!) I'm 5'4" and I've gone from 171 lbs to 150.5 lbs. so far! That's actually 20.5 lbs. if you want to get technical, and I couldn't weigh myself today because of various reasons, so you never know!

Plus, my birthday is coming up on May 26th! I have a Birthday Goal Weight in mind, of 149 lbs. To get to this goal, I've been exercising about an hour every day, and sticking to 1200 cals or so. It may seem like an odd number, but it's as close to a "normal" weight for my height as I'm going to get by that date.

So I have reached one mini-goal of losing 20 lbs., and I may be posting in a few days saying that I reached my birthday goal weight too *crosses fingers*! Wish me luck or something!

Hi!
Thanks for all your birthday wishes! I had a great birthday party yesterday and I'm sure I'll have a wonderful birthday day today (although a busy one!)

Let's see.. I didn't really reach my birthday goal weight exactly, but I did get to 150 lbs, .5 lbs. lower than two days ago. I guess that's good Woke up to insults on another board about my diet though I'm a very sensitive girl, and it was *extremely* rude, so it made me cry slightly... I'm such a baby! No biggie though. Turned on some music and now I'm better. Turns out one of my favorite artists is coming out with a new album in June! So excited! Time to go out and buy some CD's soon! Need a job!

Well, how about everyone else tells me how they are doing! I'd like to hear from you!

Happy Birthday!!! I have a birthday goal too - July 5th I want to be below 180. But not sure I'm going to make it. On my FitDay BMI it would take me out of the obese and into the "just" overweight range. I know it's arbitrary, but still. What a great birthday present. You have done SO AWESOME and I love to hear that someone else set and pretty much made their goal (I'll bet you see that next week!). I hope you are feeling better and not letting those other comments bother you.

Exclamation Yay!

Yay for birthday goals! Here's to hoping that everyone gets to them!

Just letting you know that I reached 149.0 lbs. today! Just 4 lbs. away from the normal range for my height! I'm so excited! I get to be "normal" again! Well... hehe It will be nice. Anyway, just thought I'd update...
