On the bandwagon...

So every year I say I'm going to lose weight.  Every year I fail at it.  Hoping to make this year a different.   As always I'm going to try using SparkPeople to do it.  This time I'm going to try and add friends who will hopefully help keep me accountable and active. 

So here are my starting stats:

Weight: 206lbs
Chest: 45"
Waist: 40"
Hips: 49"
Thigh: 28"
Upper Arm: 16"
Neck: 13.5"
Calf: 15"
Waist to Hip Ratio: 0.82
Body Fat %: 49%

My first goal is to hit 156.  That would be 50lbs lost.  I haven't been in the 150's since I was 16. 

I've joined a few challenges in the groups I'm in. 

• January Plank Challenge
• Calories in and out
• 30 Day Squat Challenge
• SparkPeople's Winter Wellness Challenge 

 I will weigh in every Wednesday morning and do my measurements on the 1st of each month.  I will be posting recaps of articles and info I read on SparkPeople.
