BACK AGAIN

I was here for a while, then got preggo, then got caught up in being a mom and now I'm back. :P

My daughter is 19 months old and it's about time I got my butt in gear. My fiance and I are planning our wedding for Sept '07 and my goal is to be as trim as possible by May '07, when I plan to order my wedding gown.

I am 5'10" and currently weigh about 172 pounds (down 6 in the last 2-3 months).

I've been Jazzercising (anyone else on here?) and I love it- but paring down my diet is a whole other story. That is my plan for the new year- to CONTINUE jazzercising my butt off, AND to get control of my eating.

I can't promise to be on here lots for a month or so- I don't have the premium package anymore and it's driving me nuts- must get it after I'm paid in January. Then I should be around lots! :)

Good luck to you Tina and welcome back! Congrats on getting started. My main motivation for losing weight is my strong desire to become a mother. I think my weight has a lot to do with my inability so far to become pregnant. I hope that will change as I get closer to 199 pounds. I have a long way to go (255 currently) but I am confident that I will make it.

Welcome and best of luck........I remember hearing someone else talk about jazzercise but I can't for the life of me remember who it was at the moment. Hope they let you know and strike up a conversation with you.

Hi Tina and welcome,

Did I get your height and weight right? 172 and 5'10"? That should be in the healthy BMI range. Maybe you don't have much room to go?

Well, I am having more trouble than I thought here...

Last time I went on a full fledged diet kick, I lived alone, and I didn't realize how much harder it would be with a man and a baby in the house! Before I went on all salad lunches (for almost 6 months), mostly vegetarian dinners, etc... It's just not working out that way this time around...

I'll get back to you when I have a plan in place. lol
