I live in the South - California transplant. We really like it here - summers can be a bit brutal with the humidity and being overweight. So my goal is to shed a fair amount of weight between January 2012 and Summer.
I'm 54, I'll be 55 in July. The best present I can give myself will be good health. Also confidence. Here's my stats:
Start Weight: 235
Goal Weight: 160
Height 5' 7"
Blouse Size 1X
Pants Size 18/20
