Hello! I have been looking for an online forum to help me with my weight loss attempts. Having someone, or in this case a lot of someones, help encourage, enspire, and suggest tips to me along the way will hopefully help me actually reach my goals and keep the weight off. 
I am 28, 5' 8" and currently weigh in at 200 lbs.
In college I typically weighed 150-160 lbs, but I one summer I was able to loose 30 lbs and weighed 140 lbs for about 2 semesters and loved the way I looked and felt. 
My current food intake needs to improve.
Less processed food and more healty and natural foods. I also need to increase my exercise and activity level. Right now I work out 6-10 days per month which is horrible since most people with great looking bodies work out 5-7 days each week. My goal is to work out 3 days per week to get started and once I get consistant with that, then I'll work on increasing that.
I realize 140 lbs is not a realistic goal right now, but I'm hoping maybe it can be in the far future. My current, and hopefully attainable, goal is to lose 10% of my current weight and get down to 180 lbs before Thanksgiving. I know it sounds crazy to plan a weight loss goal right before a major eating Holiday, but to maintain weight loss, there will be many Holidays to withstand, right?
Well, good luck to me and keep up the good work to all of you currently doing great and losing weight.
