That is me, exactly!!!

I started doing a lot of toning .. Mat work and pilates .. And my shape is changing so drastically (smaller), that I'm not so dead-art on reaching the 140 anymore. It would be nice, I think, but I'm looking really healthy at 160 and getting firmer every day.

Wow! It's so great to know there are other people with very similar starting and current weights!

My body finally started shedding lbs this week and I'm down to 161! It's funny that it coincides with a taking a break from super intense cardio.

11lbs to healthy weight - I'm sure it will be tough but feels more feasible than ever.

Thanks for the tips on toning - such a great idea!!!

I have between 6 and 9 lbs to lose. Depends on the day and the fluid retention. The last 10 lbs are so slow.
