Hello. I joined the website to help me keep track of what I eat and my exercise...as it is so much better than writing it down. My goals are simple:lose 5-10lbs and gain muscle. I am by no means overweight but since having surgery in December I have gained a few pounds and lost some muscle over the course of my first 3 years in college. I have always been athletic so in my eyes I still have a picture of MY vision of a perfect body. I am 5'4" and have a small body frame. In mid-May I joined a new gym and since then my weight has dropped from 133.5 to 120 (a total loss to date of 13.5lbs). I have always been active and eat pretty healthy...so that is not a problem for me, just want to keep track of everything I do. I also joined a great website-jpfitness.com and from talking to many members I have heard very good things about a certain weight lifting book called "New Rules of Weight Lifting for Women" by Lou Schuler. So far into it I think it is great and I recommend it to any woman who wants to gain lean muscle instead of bulking up! Good luck to everyone and I hope to talk to some of you and hear your stories!


A few little goals I have achieved so far:

1. Stop drinking soda
2. Stop drinking Caffeine
3. Stop drinking sweet tea (at least the home-make kind that is loaded with sugar)
4. Lose 13.5lbs (133.5 to 120.0lbs currently)
5. Most importantly I QUIT SMOKING. It has been months and this time it is for good!

A few goals I have yet to achieve...

1. Clock a 1 mile run under 5 minutes
2. Do some kind of Breast Cancer Awareness walk/run
3. Gain another 5-10lbs of muscle
4. Bring my body fat under 17%
