My name is Amanda, I'm 32 and happily married to my best friend. We have two puppers, Steve and Tucker, they are our babies. I have a touch of OCD when it comes to cleaning. I work strange, late night hours as a pharmacy courier. I am 5'5, and I'm not sure what my personal ideal weight will be, so for now I'm working towards a healthy weight. After hitting that goal, I can then determine what is most ideal for me.

I want to look and feel good about myself again. I want self confidence and to not feel trapped or held back by my insecurities. I want to be able to buy clothes online easily, and all those cute outfits in stores that never have my size. Cute plus size clothes are expensive.

*2023 Update*
I lost about 85lbs from September 2021 and September 2022. I was nearing my goal, I felt like nothing could stop me. I had the determination, self control, and I was happy in my deficit. But life loves to throw curve balls. I was diagnosed with PCOS many years ago and was told it was very unlikely I would have children. My husband and I have been together 13 years and accepted that was true. However, suddenly I was ravenous and I would almost eat without meaning to. My hard won self control was suddenly gone. I fought several weeks against my appetite until I was shocked to realize I was pregnant. I did try initially to keep myself accountable and eat in moderation, but when the holidays hit I just let go. I'm ashamed to admit it but I went back to my old ways. It didn't help that my only craving I had my entire pregnancy was sweets. And so I gained about 60lbs back of what I had lost. But I haven't lost my determination and I won't stop until I hit my goal.

Here were the goals I had met.
