Also it was the 52nd week
Since I took weight loss seriously and made changes and turn my life around. 
I lost total of 55 lbs. In 52 Weeks
This wasn't easy. This didn't come to me naturally. I had to work hard. I struggled. In past I too made many mistakes. And This time I used those mistakes and experiences as tool to Succeed.
After some time many of us lose that "drive" or "fire". It gets difficult to stay motivated , stay focused.
So here, the Real secret is Determination and Passion. It's the Key !!! Without Focus, Motivation, And Determination we can't achieve anything.

I'm a bit late to join but I would love to lose 50 lbs !!
(Actually I am going to aim for 5 pounds a month as a minimum)
Highest Starting weight: 258
Challenge Starting Weight - 237.8 (15th January)
End of Challenge Goal: 175 lbs
Weigh-in day: 15th of each Month
1/15 - 237.8
2/15 - 227.8 ( -10.0 lbs)
3/15 - 221.2 ( - 6.6 lbs)
4/15 - Easter broke me - I had a month two months on maintenance and several false re-starts
5/15 - 216.2 ( -5.0 lbs)
6/15 - 215.8 (-0.4 lbs)
7/15 - 211.8 (-4.0 lbs)
Total Challenge loss (6* months) : 26.0 lbs
* (average of 4.5 - 6.5 lbs per month)
Goals and monthly reflections:Goals:
January - Biggest success this month:Re-starting my weight loss journey.
February - Biggest success this month: A good start, loosing 10 lbs
March - Biggest success this month: Determined to continue regardless of slower progress
April - Easter broke me - I had a month on maintenance and several false re-starts)
May - I think I *may* be back on track. Let's see for June. Hoping for 6 lbs off by mid June.
June - *pat on the back* I DID actually re-start after reaching 223 at the end of May/start of June.
July - it's slower going this time, but I am exercising more and losing inches
My personal challenges looking forward: sticking with it. Logging everyday. Working harder to stay within allowances. Being "okay" with the numbers on a standstill for a bit. Focus on the big picture. Cook at home is far more successful but I am a social eater
Next "mini-goal" - 210 lbs = fresh flowers for the dining table.
My current plan --> 20 lb increments to 175 then re-adjust goals to suit
1. 215 - time to change out the wardrobe a bit ✅
2. 195 - "overweight" (and wardrobe change)
3. 175 - wardrobe change!
4. 160 - > 150 -> 140 --> (GW)3 -

.
Also it was the 52nd week Since I took weight loss seriously and made changes and turn my life around.
I lost total of 55 lbs. In 52 Weeks
This wasn't easy. This didn't come to me naturally. I had to work hard. I struggled. In past I too made many mistakes. And This time I used those mistakes and experiences as tool to Succeed.
After some time many of us lose that "drive" or "fire". It gets difficult to stay motivated , stay focused.
So here, the Real secret is Determination and Passion. It's the Key !!! Without Focus, Motivation, And Determination we can't achieve anything.

Can I start today?
I homeschool four young children, two with special needs; my husband just got fired a month ago after we moved here — 1400 miles from home; and my weight is as high as it’s ever been in my adult life.
I lost 100 pounds before I met my husband and kept it off for almost ten years. But after baby #3, we moved and the post pregnancy weight didn’t come off because of all the stress and caring for my children. Then I got pregnant again and got post partum depression. And here I am!
I started consistently eating better and walking about two miles a day last week. After LOTS of research (and confusion — fitness and weight loss are not what they were when I did this 15 years ago!) I came back to the Ol’ Tried and True — Calories And Moderate Exercise.
Age: 41
Starting Weight: 226
Goal Weight: 160
Goal Date: October 2019? 😱😭 Sooner, I hope!!!
Weigh in: Weekly
First Walking Goal: 10 miles a week
First Resistance Goal: 3x a week

06/25/18 261.8 -3.8 Extended family in town for a funeral so I spent all week eating out and eating meals prepared by others. I managed to eat ok anyway, I think.
07/02/18 258.0 -3.8 This was a good week. Stayed within my macros and ate well, but I'm concerned that I'm not eating enough calories.
07/09/18 257.4 -0.6 4th of July made eating right more difficult
07/16/18 256.6 -0.8 I think I've been eating too many calories. Time to recalculate my macros.
