I was wondering about that Regular status thing, I seem to have lost mine at well. Maybe posting on this thread will give it back to me.
Strive for less sounds like a great plan, I think I'll adopt that too.

My DH told me to join the gym, he gets a pretty good discount from his work (hospital) , he can go the the cardiac unit as an employee and use the gym there so he goes everyday. I didnt want to say no so I wouldnt feel like a 'slacker' so I signed up.

About the "regular thing" I know I've made more than 20 posts in 2 weeks but am not a regular. I just figured it had to be consistent to be listed as one and for me it depends on how much craziness I'm dealing with, I figure being a part of this group will bring me here almost daily. I had forgotten about the measuring as well as weighing thanks for the reminder!

I do wish my hips were smaller. However, I've always, even at my smallest, had hips that are 4" larger than my chest.
Weight 249.8
Waist 39.25
Hip 51.75
Chest 47.63
