Hi all, I am a homemaker, I have 2 daughters , a great husband, and 5 cats. I used to be a stripper/dancer , in my late 20's. I had the hottest body, but 2 kids, and 2 husbands later ( one passed away from an accident),
I weighed in Jan and just about fell over seeing 196 on the scale.

I lost weight from this jan to march at 2 pounds per week, at 178 till March, then I had surgery, stayed home, and gained it back, sad thing is I should be at 120. I am 5 ft 2 in, muscular build, I have a cute figure, even when heavy, I was blessed with the hourglass figure, even with weight. I am a dd bust and wide hips and a smaller waist.

So I had to start over at 192, I have lost 18 pounds so far. Im using all sorts of tequniques to acheive my goal. I have a reduced calorie diet, excersize daily , and I am getting Dr. help. I also started off with a cleanse, and now I am very careful what goes in my mouth.

My first goal was to re-lose the weight I lost in Feb. = yeah I made that goal. woo hoo.

My second goal is now to get to 150, which is what I got married at just 2 yrs ago.

My third goal is 120. I asked my generous husband the other day : "Uhm, if I get to my ideal weight for my height, can I have a red corvette? " I was kidding! He said " yes! " and he wasn't kidding. I just about fell over. So now he tells me its true I can have one. I have no idea if we can afford that , when the time comes, but wow, that motivates me! woo hoo. Plus I will have a hot body again, so I am determined.

He also wants to re-new vows ( his idea & our 3 yr anniversary) next april, while we vacation in the caribbean, and it would be ideal if I was at 120 by then. So that is my goal also.

This looks like a great forum, and everyone here is so positive, and that is so encouraging. Hugs to you- for being so vocal about your weight loss progress, and encouragement to so many people. I hope I can be just as encouraging to you.

Welcome to the forum!

Wow, talk about motivation! A car? the carribean? a hot body? Oh yeah!

It seems to me, you know what works for you as you have had success in the past. Now you need to get that determination in gear, keep focusing on the future while making daily commitments to healthy eating and exercising and you will be at you goal in no time!
 
Omg

Super lucky you. My husband promised me he would quit smoking if I got down to my goal weight so I'm going to hold it to him. If he gave me a corvette I would never complain about his darn smoking again....LOL. Good luck to you, not just for the car but for getting to where you want to be and where are happy.

Thank you for the good luck wishes, and to you too. Hey , living with a non-smoker is a good thing... healthier for you with the 2nd hand smoke issues.
 
What a great motivator! lol Best of luck with all your efforts. You'll have to post pictures of his reaction when you lose it all and go to the dealership. :)
