Ht. 5'4", Start: 173 lb, Today: 173 lb (BMI %tile: 96), Goal: 130 lb - I didn't do well today at all. Tomorrow is the day though-I desperately want to lose weight before all my summer activities, and this is it, this is the beginning. My mom and I were talking and I've been writing down everything we need to get rid of and the healthy stuff we need to buy and the workout schedule for each day. I like writing my own workout schedule because then I can mix it up a little bit and do different things. My twin brother and I play volleyball in our backyard a lot during the summer so I'm looking foward to that and I get to babysit my niece a lot during July-August so I'm gonna take her and my dog on tons of walks. I finally felt that little click go off in my head that said, "You're finally ready for this, and this time, you really want it." I'm sick of dieting and then gaining it back, this time is real, this time I'm really going to do it. And I'm ecstatic that I know that I'm finally ready for it.
