    GW: 145...although I will stop paying the scale too much attention at 160 and just focus on body composition at that point. The scale can do what it will do.

    I'm 23 years old & 5'7". My starting weight was 185lbs. Currently I'm 156. My goal weight is 140-145lbs. I just eat at my calorie deficit & do some cardio & weights during the week.

    Almost this. 5'7" and my starting weight per my scale was 192.6, doctors scale said 197 (I weigh myself naked in the morning, Dr. was after coffee and fully clothed...). I just started so currently down to 189, with a goal of 140-145.

    Height: 5'9"
    Starting weight: 225
    Current weight: 217
    Goal: 12% body fat (as of this morning, goal weight is 165).

    I eat 1800 calories +/- a few every day, work out 4 days a week (5 actually, but one day is just stretching and range of motion). Calories burned in exercise don't get replaced. I may change that if I start losing muscle, but that doesn't appear to be the case yet.

    In just over a month, I've lost 8 pounds of fat and gained about 2 pounds of muscle. I'm a little suspicious of the fat loss numbers, but this is what has made it past my mechanisms to deal with daily variation and scale error.

    I'm 5'6 and currently around 185lbs and aiming to get back to my pre-pregnancy weight of 154lbs. I was a UK size 10/12 (US 6/8). I always look lighter than I actually am. Once I get to 154 I may decide to lose a bit more. I was happy at that weight before though.

    Eat real food. Is that how you want to live the rest of your life?

    Yep. Plus isn't 130 pretty low for 5'9?

    I may or may not stop at 140 depending on how I feel :) It would be great to see 130's, though. My weight loss has been kind of slow, but it's at a steady decline.

    I don't have a weight goal anymore. I'm 5'8" and I want to be a size 10. That's when I feel healthiest.

    I would like to drop 10 more pounds but I also want to start building muscle so I'm facing a bit of a dilemma. I work out 5 days a week and stay under 1300 calories. I MUST also take my metformin for my PCSO...tried to go off it for a little bit and the weight started coming back on even though nothing in my diet or exercise changed.

    I originally wanted to hit 150 which is what I weighed at 28 and was my lowest adult weight. But it was hard to maintain and I settled at 156-160 for quite a while. If I feel and look okay at a slightly higher weight and my doctor approves at the time, I may settle for higher. I want to be realistic and not work myself into a frenzy over numbers which I can easily do.

    Log. Even if you "mess up", it keeps you accountable. And find something exercise wise you love to do. Good luck!!

    female, 5'8", currently 142, goal is 138ish. so not much to go, but I lost a bunch from last June until now. Tips--lots and lots of veggies--I cut up 3 cups of mixed fresh veggies every night for snacking the next day. Turns out I LOVE raw green beans!! Who knew?!? I try to use a big mix--radishes, cauliflower, broccoli, jicama, cherry tomatoes, peppers. Also--cut out empty calories--junk, pastries, high calorie drinks. That's what worked for me.

    Be honest in your logging and don't beat yourself up if you have a bad day. Own it and move on.[/quote]

    ^ this. Log completely and accurately, even when it hurts

    My tip is Eat what you will eat when your not on a diet just smaller portions. Also make sure you log everything you put into your mouth. And get at least 30 minutes of excersise in a day.

    I'm currently Walking for an jour but also doing the 30 day Squat challenge and 30 day push-up challenge.
