Hi all,
The good news is I've lost about 60 lbs in the past 5 months on Jenny Craig. The bad news is I still have 35 lbs more to go!

Generally, I'm very ambitious and competitive in life. But I guess I gave myself dispensation when I got pregnant with our first child. I gained over 80 lbs. I already had a few to lose before that so after my son was born I was in a bit of a "situation" :) I've really liked the ease and convenience of Jenny Craig and it seems to work well for me. I think I'll be able to do it the whole way to my goal as the loss has been steady and true.

As for personal interests -- I love to write, read, and running is my favorite exercise. I'm interested in politics (go Hillary!), the environment, and all kinds of art. I also love wine and have the intention of earning my master sommelier certification one day. I'm into goals, so here is the part of my bio that I'll update each week!

SHORT TERM GOAL1: Under 200 as close to 10/31 as possible.
PROGRESS: COMPLETE! 11/30 YAY!

SHORT TERM GOAL2: 185 by 1/31/2008 (My Birthday!)

SHORT TERM GOAL3: 170 by 3/18/2008

OVERALL WEIGHT LOSS GOAL: 155 lbs in Spring 2008

LONG TERM GOAL: Maintain weight fluctuation to stay under 155 for 2008 & 2009 by going back on restricted menu at 5 lb gain. I'll refresh goals in 2010.
