Hi LS. My name is Ashley and I have been on a weight loss rollercoaster. This time in June I was actually about 3 lbs away from my goal weight, but I slipped up one day and it all went downhill after that. One day turned into one week which turned into one month which turned into an entire season of unhealthy food choices so now I am back at 173 lbs. In 2007, I had to be over 200 lbs and I put my foot down and decided that I would not see the 200s again. I lose about 30 lbs and vowed to never see the 180s again. Now I'm making it my business to not see the 170s or the 160s again. I WILL NOT LOSE. I finally decided to join LS because I realized that I was not holding myself accountable when I 'slipped up' and I needed a support system that would both motivate me to get back on my feet and understand that a slip is normal, and that's exactly what I got here so far.

My plan is to lose 21 lbs by December 20th which I think is a reasonable goal. I'm also going to start a running program so that I can get all the benefits of running too. This time around I can honestly say I'm not attempting to just lose weight, but I'm actually in it to be healthy all around. I want to be a healthier and in shape Ashley so I will do it this time. Woo hoo!

Starting weight: 173

Goal weight: 152

I'll upload some more pictures, but when I do you'll be able to see that my 173lbs may not look exactly like 173lbs as I've always been told that I don't look as much as I weigh. In my avatar I was 165.
