You have smart and realistic goals. I would watch your caloric intake as for you size it is a little low especially if engaging in exercise. You didn't list what kinds if foods you eat so that would suggest that you kind of here and there it without a real solid plan. Overall I would say the problem you might run into achieving your goal is under eating, not having a solid workout plan and time management.

Best plan for you, is get a plan

Hi there, Been a while since I have been on...have had some computer issues..and been busy.
One reason I didn't post what I plan to eat...is I never follow it. There isn't much that I do like...so making a meal plan ahead of time, just doesnt work for me. I just plan to eat healthy. And I have been. I am down 6 lbs since febuary 9th. Been eating alot of yogurts, salads, small portions of chicken breasts snacking on carrots and eating a bowl of oat meal in the mornings for breakfast. Lunches at work usually consist of 1/2 a tuna sadwich ( i mix it with mustard for flavor instead of mayo less calories and better flavor) on wheat break and carrots and a yogurt. Dinners are a good size salad w/o cheese and a small chicken breast or a little shrimp. Snacks are either flavored rice cakes ( just cant do the plane ones) or a granola bar. and through out the day LOTS AND LOTS OF WATER. I have cut out the pop completly. So as far as a food plan I don't have one....just to make healther choices and it seems to be working so far. I made cup-cakes last monday....and I stayed away from them ALL WEEK. Had to throw away what the kiddos didnt eat lastnight. so for now...all is going good. working out everyday I dont work. Going to up my time and distance starting wed. I am very happy with what I have lost so far and hope to keep it up.
