    I'm 5'3 and 160 pounds. I want to be around 120 eventually but will see how I look and feel once I hit 135. I'm trying to stay around 1200 calories but it's hard. I work a physical 12 hr swing shift and I think that helps. I just started 30ds. If anyone wants to add me feel free. Good Luck to all!

    I'm 5'4, 165 lbs and started at 173 at the end of November. My goal weight is 135 and possibly 125. We'll see how I look when I get there. I'm currently not working out but would like to start. I also don't count calories per se, but do count servings and pay attention to calories.

    Miss. i agree with you totally. the pressure and people bugging you about weight loss what you should do, what you should eat. what youre doing right or wrong...... it really discourages one from doing what they need to be doing....
    but if you are determined to do any of this you will ignore them... if you havent had a trainer, a doctor, or a nutritionist personally educate you on what youre doing how your doing and what to eat, its okay to sit back, be quiet and listen to people who have things to say...... take bit by bit and find what works foryou..... unfortunately for me, ive HAD to have nutrition class for my job to help my clients eat healthier and maintain a good weight for their ages....... i had this twice at one job and once at another.. in the same year, my doctor sent me to the nutritionist to get a wake up call. they had examples of portion sizes and man,,,,, was i ever over eating LOLOL.......im nutrition educated out this year......
    good luck best of luck with all of what you all are doing.....!!

    When I started in February 2013 I was 5'2 and 159 lbs, right now I'm hovering 129-130. I would like to be at 125, with an ultimate goal weight of 120. I didn't start seriously logging my calories on here until mid-July (I was using another app). I had some set backs, like a month of insomnia because of school, a super busy month during the summer (15 hour work/school day), and the current holiday season (starting right before Christmas and lasting two weeks). I end up averaging about 3 lb loss a month, which is a nice steady pace. Right now I can net up to 1500 a day and still lose a 1/2 lb a week. It's hard to say when you will reach your goal weight, but give it a minimum of 6 months, but Halloween time is probably more realistic. If you haven't already, get a digital food scale, it will help you out immensely. Good luck and feel free to add me if you want any support!

    I'm 5'3 and I'm 170# now (was over 200# before). My G/W is actually 148 (for a total loss of 60#, which will put me at a size 6/8...135# would make me super tiny and I'm not sure it is something I can really maintain.
