    Does anyone else want to start tracking and join me in the journey to lose 50 lbs?

    Track until you have lost 50 lbs.

    HSW: 258
    Current SW - 237.8 (15th Jan)
    Challenge SW: 226
    Challenge GW: 176
    Goals:
    1) getting down - 215 - will want to go clothes shopping (I hope to be down a size)
    :star: 2) get below 200, like 190-195 (so on fluctuation days I never see the 2 again) reward - high tea with bff
    3) major goal = 175 - clothes shopping in Cherating!
    4) UGW: 133

    It's slow and steady right now. I want it to stay that way. I think I can start hitting more goals this year.

    I am taking it one day at a time - so thanks for all the inspirational stories, and all the support.

    Short term GW 180
    Ultimate GW 120-130

    I'm doing a keto diet right now and have been at it for 14 weeks. That's the longest I've ever stuck with any diet. Just finally at a point mentally where I'm sick and tired of being unhappy in my own skin and I've finally found that motivation/willpower to stick with it until the end.
    Weight is coming off slow and sometimes it's gaining back the same couple of pounds weeks at a time, but it's coming off and I'm not giving up :)

    HSW: 266 just got a new scale and it said I was alot heavier than my old one did!
    Interim GW: 199
    Challenge GW: 240's in the next month or 215 to be down 50 lbs

    Current Weight: 262.2 (9/8)
    I weigh daily and will post any progress
    9/23 - 261.6 This is significant in that this the weight my old scale was weighing me at consistently when it totally failed and I got the new scale that weighed me higher and seemed to go up everytime I stepped on it. I stopped that and turned it around. However I had gotten down to 258.something on the old scale so that is my goal for the week.

    Update:

    August 2 - 214
    September 8 - 199
    September 21 - 195

    I had a 10 day diet break around September 8-18, so in a sense being down 4 pounds over these past two weeks is kind of not what I was aiming at. It has been that little bit harder to come back the last week, but I'm still motivated and sort of oriented around a certain level of under-eating (but also with a couple of wonky days and some shoddy tracking in there.) I really need to cut that out and focus more on hitting good protein goals and building up fitness.

    I'm down to a (tight) size 10 and tried to kind of de/motivate myself by doing some dressing-room-shopping today, but couldn't quite persuade myself to buy anything (I moved less than two months ago with basically what would fit into a carry-on, so I'm just generally short on clothes and should, like, get another pair of jeans just for basic adulting,) because I still have this 'this isn't me yet, I can do this really fast, I'll buy clothes then', logic. At the same time, I might be a size down, but I'm also apparently edging into the squishy and weird 'what is happening with my body??' phase, and also starting to freak way too early about loose skin and who knows what. So anyway its been a weird day.

    I'm trying to talk myself into raising calories and slowing down, but might give it another week or two at my current 1250 and see if I can get into a solid lifting routine. If I do, I'll go buy new jeans and just enjoy having a n tight new pair of jeans for a while and raise calories or go on a diet break a bit earlier (or both.)

    Sorry for the ramble, it helps to write it out to work through it, and to commit! A kind of public proclamation, if you will.

    long term goal 130

    My big start is Monday Oct 1 It's my birthday and I turn 59. So being that I was born in 59 and I'm turning 59. And I would like to lose at least 59 Lbs. I hope it means it's my good year :) I work in a 5 story building and my goal is each week to walk up and down a flight of stairs. Add a flight each week. I've been on so many diets and gain my weight back. I hope this is my last lost and maintain this time. Now for my bad habit's is MacDonald chocolate chip frappa and i'm a chocoholic.

    Short term goal ( hopefully by new year)- 199
    Long term goal- 153 and see from there where I'd like to be. This is the top of my normal weight and 70 lbs from where I am now. If anyone wants to friend me I'd appreciate it. I'm trying to eat clean and a good proportion of every food group and keep active most days.

    Im 298 lbs, just getting started my goal weight is 175 lbs.

    Its so hard because I lose focus and get sooo hungry. Trying to start with self discipline and mind control to not eat and not eat bad foods.

    Just need encouragement!
