Hey guys!

I just joined the group. I'm 22, in grad school, and I recently got serious about losing weight. A huge step I took was signing up to run a half marathon at the end of January. I'm doing pretty good with exercising 5 times a week, and I also cut my calories down to a more appropriate level. I guess I just need that motivation/encouragement not to eat more than my limit. I don't comfort eat, I just really like food! :rolleyes: haha
The reason for my thread title was that at my last doctors appointment, I told my doctor that I wanted to weigh 140-145 lbs (I am 5'8'' and currently 182, although at the time I was 196), and she said that would be the weight where I would "look good in a bikini." For some reason, hearing a stranger say that, losing weight suddenly became real, attainable. I want to do this, and I'm going to. All my life, I've never owned a bikini. Wow, it'll be so great to wear one...

Anyway, I'm really excited about this forum and I can't wait to lose some weight!

Cheers!
ps-I want to do one of those weight loss ticker things, how do you do that? Thanks!! :)
 
Go to a site that has them.. like tickerfactory.com
Do the appropiate steps, like picking which bar you want, which cursor thing etc etc.
Then you copy and paste the bbCode into your signature :)

Anyways.. Welcome!! I know you'll be rockin that bikini next summer!!
 
Hi there! I'm looking forward to wearing a bikini next summer too! Those beaches better get ready for us!!! :D :D

Best of luck to you!
 
I am going to buy a bikini in the spring...I probably won't ever wear it out in public, but it'll just be for me:D
 
A bikini huh....In theory I suppose I should be able to wear one by next summer...it'd be fun to try one on, I don't think I'd ever actually wear one though. :)

Welcome to the forum!
 
Good luck with your goal! I would NEVER look good in a bikini... 3 bouts of stretch marks haven't fared too well on my buddha belly, but I might like to buy one just for ME to know I can wear it!!
