    My goal is to get to 135, which is 16 pounds away. I've already lost 15 pound, probably closer to 20 since I didn't weigh myself when I was at my true peak weight (recorded peak was 166). If I get to 135 and feel the need, I'll try to go to 125. I got to 159 without MFP by eating healthier and a combination of C25k and a summer full of hiking , and I've lost about 8 pounds since starting MFP in late August. If I can do it after spending years pigeonholing myself as someone who would always be the most overweight person in my family, then anyone can!

    My current goal is to lose 24 pounds by February as I'd like to start swimming regularly again next year and feel comfortable doing it.
    My overall weight loss goal is to lose between 90 and 100 pounds. 100 pounds really?! I can't believe I can even say that. Well actually it's now 84-94 which sounds much better :wink:

    Non scale related goals are:
    Buy a pair of jeans, for the first time in 3 years, at a regular store and rock them!
    Feel confident enough that I won't be too big to do things. I fear I am too big for roller coasters, I'm probably not but last time I went on one it felt like a tight squeeze.
    Be able to wear stilettos again without wanting to rip them off after 5 minutes because being heavy makes wearing heels a painful experience.
    Live a more generally active life.

    I have a family reunion in February and I would really love to have lost all the weight by then (28 lbs to go) but with my Mom's 60th, my son's 18th, Christmas, New Year and my birthday before then, I know I have a challenge on my hands.

    My initial goal? To hit onederland for the first time since...ever. I am only seventeen pounds away from that initial goal. Since that goal is actually within sight now, something that I doubted would EVER happen, I have set a new goal of 175. I will still be over a "healthy" BMI, but I think that I could be happy at that weight. Who knows? Maybe when I get there, my new goal will be a healthy BMI. We'll see...

    Highest weight was 220 lbs. I'm at 188 right now. My goal was 160 until I realized that still falls into the "overweight" bmi range. My updated goal is 145.

    I'm hoping to be down to 60 Kg (132 lbs). I joined MFP when my weight is 70.2 Kg (154 lbs). Before this, I've lost 7.7 Kg (17lbs). Since it's my school holiday now, I'm just trying to get as much eating healthy and exercise done. Truthfully, I've decided to get in shape because of this really gorgeous dress I bought. But, now my goals have changed. It's just to feel good about myself and hopefully be an inspiration to my family because it can be done.

    I have several goals

    lose 5 pounds
    lose 10 pounds
    lose 20 pounds
    reach my goal weight of 215 (which was docter recommended for my rib cage, heigh and shoulder size)

    cut soft drinks
    cut junk food (only eat on special occasions)
    drink 2-3 liters of water per day
    walk 7000 steps per day

    i'm doing the best i can... i set small daily goals such as eat 8 servings of fruits and veggies and if i do it for a week i reward myself.. unfortunately i kind of ignored my principals on the honeymoon which lasted 3 weeks and gained 10 pounds over the last 5! ohwell, it was worth it! best time of my life! time to get it back!

    Goal 1 : move out of the Obese BMI
    Goal 2: move out of the Overweight BMI
    Goal 3: to keep the body toned after reaching goal weight.

    Close to reaching goal 1. Only 18 more pounds.

    Best to all of you on your goals.

    Well, eventually I'd like lose another 8-15 lbs. But my main goal right now is to complete the ChaLEAN Extreme program and hopefully lose a couple of inches off my thighs and waist. The last few lbs would be great, but I'm mostly concentrating on fitness right now.

    I have a healthy BF%, but I'd still love to be smaller (thinner).
