Long term goal is 65kg (143lb)
2.) What are your goal inches?
not sure at this stage, by body has taken on a weird shape since I've had kids.....
3.) What habits do you want to break?
I have stopped eating food that is just absolute junk like: chocolate, cake, lollies, chips, pastry, sweet biscuits, icecream (and also stopping pasta for a while, I was eating way too much of that stuff)
4.) What habits do you want to develop?
Try to eat 3 balanced meals per day, no snacking all day on junk food.

PLAN1.) What program will you be following (this is important, you need a PLAN for success, so be detailed)? 
I have started the C25K program.For those who don't know - it it "Couch to 5 kilometre" running program.I am up to week 4 of the 9 week program & going well so far.It involves running 3 times per week for around half an hour.
2.) What steps are you going to take to improve your nutrition?
Bulking up meals with salad/vegetableseat lean unprocessed meatsdrink lots of water

WHY
Well that is obvious - because I am a big fat fatty & I need not to be!I want to be a positive role model for my kids, and be healthy & active & enjoy their lives with them.I also want to do it to feel better within myself, which I already do feel a bit better, it's been much easier to get up in the mornings lately.

Really looking forward to starting P4P! & having other people to share this with! yay!

Hi guys,  I just wanted to check in.... I did join Pounds for Ponies at the start, but then dropped out straight away because I didn't think I could commit to the 3 month program at that time.....
I just wanted to congratulate everyone who has followed this through! Well done everyone, I am so happy for everyone who is achieving their goals.... I have stalked the thread a few times so I've been keeping up with it a bit...
As for me,  I have done pretty well I think, I have lost another 18.5kg (40lbs) in the 3 months, still have a bit of a ways to go, but getting there.

megt19 - congrats, that's awesome progress!!

TOTALS NEED TO BE IN BY FRIDAY TO BE COUNTED... AT THAT POINT PRIZES WILL BE AWARDED

[sabathamk]

Look at all those points everyone got!!!  Wow!  Congrats to everyone for working so hard (man, I haven't been on much lately... soooo busy getting my son's birthday party ready... and I don't know if I'll want to even eat any of the cake with all the icing... blech)

[SurfStar]

sabathamk - I wouldn't! I always prefer the cake without the icing. Most icing is just too sweet for my taste.

[mlp4me]

Thanks psyknife, then I'd be at 171 points.

[sabathamk]

Surfstar, I actually peeled off any fondant and scraped off the icing and gave it to my husband.  I made the cake, and I don't even want to eat the 'good stuff' as he calls it, haha.  Everyone else loved it though, and said it wasn't too sweet, but still.  Icing... only a dab is enough for me, haha.
