Ht. 5'4", Start: 190 lb, Today: 170.4 lb (BMI %tile: 94), Goal: 135 lb - So I had this goal to lose 5 pounds by August 9th...well that's on Tuesday and that's not gonna happen. I've been beating myself up over my lack of commitment and not keeping this promise to myself. . But I've gotten over it and I have a goal to lose 5 pounds by the time school starts, which gives me 2-3 weeks. This way I don't feel like a complete failure when I go back to school and I can start it out on a happy note.
