Hi ... just joining in the community - and i am also trying to lose 30 lbs - but by the end of november (before the holidays start rolling in lol). Started at 196, 5'5ish.
I started a 1200 calorie "diet" ( I put it in quotes, bc there really isnt anything to except counting calories), and have been logging in EVERY DAY(!!) on myfitnesspal for 35 days now. I am down 13.8lbs in just over a month. i know that 1) having my husband on board is helping and 2) logging everything so i can count calories is helping
i figure that the first month id lose more, and things would slow down, and im okay with that given the time frame i want. After Christmas, i'll reassess my weight/position and time frame to lose more. this time im serious! lol. i say that a lot!3 -

usually i gain about 3lbs. but this month - while ive been sticking hard to my calorie count - i noticed that i didnt lost a single pound last week, which was so demoralizing! but then in the last two days ive dropped 2lbs. so i feel like i didnt "gain" but i didnt lose - and then BAM it came off after TOM. does that make sense? but that was the first time thats ever happened. like i said, usually i can count on a good extra 3lbs for a week each month lol2 -
Heyyyy how do I join? I'm 176, about 5 ft 5 and would love to lose 20-25 lbs by Xmas0

Yup it will fall off after period. Just drink your water1

Hey there, I'm 5'5". 180... just joined the community really. I'm 6 weeks post pardum and I've lost my initial water and baby weight (38 pounds) and now the rest is all mine! I've got 30 pounds to lose to get back to my pre pregnancy weight. I've been tracking my food daily with very light workouts for now. I'm hoping to lose 15-25 pounds by December. I'm stubborn about buying jeans right now as I'd just like to fit back into my own minus those.that have the maternity bands! XD good luck ladies!3

My aim is 1 stone/14lb down by Christmas (1lb per week sounds very doable, but in reality....!). After that, there's one more stone to lose (another 14lb, hopefully by May 2017 - my birthday). I know I could be gung-ho and try and push for 20+lb by Christmas, but 1lb a week is steady, and achievable.
I was 175lb last week, so I'm 1lb down, even with my time of the month. My exercise schedule is:
Spin class 2x/week
Pilates 1x/week
HIIT class 30 min 1-2x/week
Gym (weights) 1-2x/week
I'm working hard to keep this routine, so hopefully can get to Christmas healthier and slimmer!
With my calorie count, I was on target for a 1lb loss, so I think the extra sweat that dripped off in a 30degC spin class (it was really hot last week) maybe helped a bit! I've definitely picked up the pace with my exercise schedule - the HIIT classes are new (really, really hard, even though they're only 30 minutes long), so I think that has given an extra push to my weight loss.

Hey everyone! I just joined MFP on Monday--please add me! I love helping people stay uplifted and motivated and having the support myself as well. I'm 5'1 at 155 lbs and looking to lose 30 pounds--I'm not giving it a deadline because I want it to be a lifestyle change and not just a quick loss and gain it all back. I gained a pound this week but think that's because of my time of the month.3

Weekly weigh in! I was pleasantly surprised this morning when I hopped on the scale to read 177.6. I will however round it up to 178 and claim my 2 pound weight loss! Next week my goal is 176.
SW : 218
9/16: 180
9/23: 178 current weight

Week 2 - no change on last week so 3.8lb total loss.
However, my work schedule has meant my calories have been way out, so I'm relieved to have maintained!
Onwards and upwards! (Well downwards actually I suppose!)
Well done everyone on a good second week4 -

Lost exactly 1lb this week. Less than I wanted but hope I can lose 2.3lbs this week because my diet bet ends next Saturday!1 -
Late update due to poor internet connection at home.
Anyways so far I havent lost any weight yet but I keep on working off all the excess calories Ive eaten
CW: 110lbs
GW: 95lbs
UGW:85 lbs
I am planning to start taking tea and small frequent snacks to help with balancing what I eat. Hopefully by the end of the day I am at my weight loss calorie goal which is at 1200 calories. If ever I still go way over it I can just burn it off with ny daily workouts.0 -

Add me please I don't know how to add you we have similar goals1 -
I'm 5'7" and about 180 lbs. I would LOVE to lose 30 lbs by December. I'm 55 and weight does not want to come off. I need all kinds of strategies. I am counting steps. I try for 10K or 6K plus an exercise or cardio class. I'm trying to eat more protein, fewer carbs. Pizza and corn chips are part of my downfall, grazing and late night eating probably don't help. I really need support, ideas, guidelines encouragement. I just lost 5 lbs doing the steps and eating more protein and vegetation -- including seaweed. It's the first weight that has budged in AGES.3

A little late weighing in unfortunately
SW: 190
CW: 189
GW: 160
Only a 1 pound loss but I was on holiday at the start of the week so I'm not feeling disappointed with it. This week I'm planning on hitting the gym/pool 5 times this week and continuing to eat well and stay off the alcohol4
