Default Introduction

Hello! I'm Riley

I'm new to this forum. I started losing weight in 2009 after reaching an all-time high of 191. I fear that I may have actually weighed 200+ pounds because I stopped weighing myself for a while after 191 and my clothes were getting tighter by the week. After completing a graduate degree in May 2009, I decided that I had completely had enough of being overweight. Thus, I was slightly overweight for most of my life, but this was extreme!

As of December 2010, I weighed 145, which was my first weight loss goal. I am now 140, which was the second. I had reached a plateau, but now I feel that I am finally breaking it. However, I am taking it slow... each set of five pounds is a new goal. My next goal is 135. I hope to reach it by the end of the month. Afterward, 130 will be the next goal. 125 is the goal for the fourth of July, because I will be attending a celebration and there will be lots of food, but I don't want to go over 130 during the feast! My ultimate goal is to weigh between 90-100 pounds. I know that sounds extreme, but I am only 5'3" - 5'4", so that's about how much I should weigh.

It's nice to meet you all.

BTW, how do I get a tracker?
