21st of June is fast approaching "halfway" I see it as a checkpoint, I personally am a little excited about it, I think it's spurred me on to try and make sure I hit the 26lb off.
How does everyone else feel about the halfway point ?1 -

The success was that it was't more.
Sorta dappled in a few inappropriate choices. Nothing crazy just bad decisions.
Next week's challenge: Get back track and remember that bad choices have consequences.3 -

Wow, hard to believe we're almost half way there. Last time I committed to anything this long, I was in the military. My half way goal is 20.5#. Just 4# away. I'm going to work on passing that. Thank you everyone for keeping me inspired. I've learned so much and changed my lifestyle because of MFP.2 -

I'm feeling pretty good. I really am on the 52 pounds in 52 weeks plan so my halfway will be 26 pounds. I am at 23 right now so I think I am on track.5 -

My secret weapon is a low-calorie dressing that I make with a ratio of 2 tablespoons of 60% fat-free mayonnaise, 1 tsp of whole grain mustard, 1 tsp of white balsamic vinegar, and 1-1½ tablespoons of water, garlic salt and dillweed. (People who are keen on mustard might want to reduce the amount.). I use that on salads, in place of sauces on fish and chicken, and even on baked potatoes. It is tasty enough that I rarely use butter any more.
This sounds delicious and easy! Trying it this weekend0 -
Week 19:
Challenge starting weight: 230 lbs
Goal weight: 178 lbs
Current weight: 205 lbs
Weight lost this week: 2.5 lbs
Total challenge weight lost: 25 lbs
This week's successes: I had a good week for weight loss! I've also been sick in bed for several days with an upper respiratory infection, fever, chills, etc. I have not been to work since Monday, so I'm losing weight but really broke right now.
This week's challenges: I know I haven't logged in to the challenge for a few weeks, but I have been logging in my food every day. It is getting easier to know how many calories are in some foods, but I really need to buy a food scale when I get some money ahead. I can't be sure how much meat is 4 oz. unless I can weigh it.
So happy I am almost half way to this goal!!5 -

Total weight lost: 16
Weekly loss: 0
This weeks successes: Staying the same. Went on a course for two days and I presumed the fancy named restaurant would serve healthy food but the only carbs on offer was white bread so went over, so goes to prove never assume and failing to prepare is preparing to fail. Seems the exercise clawed any gain back.
This week's challenges: Due to shift work, change of treat day from today t Tuesday so 3 less days between treat and next weigh-in.
Just thought of another success. Still doing this. Seems loads have dropped away and others are losing heart. I'm here for the long run so I hope those struggling keep plugging away, have a look at where they're going wrong and make the necessary adjustments. If nothing else think of what made you join this in the first place.

We should bold and highlight this. So much effort, truth, struggle, sharing, work, planning, despair, joy.

Day 64
Starting weight: 308.6 lbs (140 kg)
Goal weight: About 260 lbs (118 kg). Eventually a six pack (The heavier I reach this goal - the better).
Current weight: 285.7 lbs (129.6 kg)
Total weight lost: 22.9 lbs (10.4 kg)
This week's successes: Minus 3.7 lbs (1.4 kg)
This week's challenges: It's the fourth day after my surgery, but I wanted to make a weight-in. They used a full anesthesia and I had trouble eating the past 4 days. I hardly even reached 1000-1500 kcal. I'm slowly getting back to my diet. Aside of the pain and the discomfort, I really miss working out. Well, it's for my own good. One month of rest and then back to the gym. Getting better every day. Can't wait to make a full recover.5 -
Starting weight: 217.8
Current weight: 191.6
Goal weight: 165

This week's challenges: Hungry2 -
Starting weight: 226.4 lbs
Current weight: 194.9 lbs
Total Weight Loss so far: 31.5 lbs
This week's success: Another great week with my exercise. And, I agree with @Toxtethogrady and @junodog1 - it is a success that I am still here and still working really hard to maintain my weight loss.
This week's challenges: Work stress lead to more snacking on chocolate, and I overindulged at a work dinner on Tuesday night.
My most favourite quote of the week:

Week 3 -- 05/15/17: 207.0 (-2.0 week/12.4 total)
Successes: Not a lot of success this week. It's been a stressful week.
Challenges: Fell off the wagon a little over the weekend since I was out of town and did not have my pre-made foods with me, as well as a lot of stress. Also retaining fluid this week. Was down to 206 earlier in the week but have put back on a pound. I think it's mostly fluid but we'll see.

Weekly update:
So I had an off weekend. Saturday was a Jimmy Buffet concert and we make it a weekend event. For the record let me say that it was all worth it. I knew there would be some after effects. We don't do it like we used to, but Jimmy weekends are still an indulgence. However I did not expect to feel so unhappy about posting these numbers above. It is bloat. I had salty things and alcohol things and I know that this number will crash back down in a couple of days. But I wanted to lie. I was running in the 204s all last week.
Ah well, I will have a fantastic loss to post next Monday.
Last Week's challenges check-in
Keeping the momentum - that ws going fine until the party broke out
Declutter one room in my house. Fail except I did get my bathrooms cleared out. I guess that counts
Be green for the week overall in calories. (Sun – Sat) I actually did that.
Call Mom
This week's challenges- 70,000+ steps for the week (Sat - Sun)
- Get the momentum back. Weight must be less that 205 next weigh in
- Water focus - drink, drink, drink
