Long story short

So my birthday is at the end of this month and my guy friend (who I’ve liked for the last 2 years) is taking me out to lunch. (yes yes the butterflies flutter as I am typing) and DUHH I want to look good ;) I was hoping to hit my goal weight by the end of the summer, but realistically, it probably won’t be happening. Sigh what is a girl to do

Game Plan

If I lose 2 pounds/week for the rest of the month of August, I will be at the ideal weight for my height (according to my doctor) which is 130-132 lbs This isn’t my UGW (of 120) But I would be totally thrilled if I could do it! 130 is already pretty damn awesome, not to mention my biggest achievement yet. @ 130, I would be 2 pounds away from saying that I lost 50 pounds (from my highest...

hasty-thoughts asked: Your intake is all, "I'm healthy and make good choices during the day everything I eat is wonderful"
