    I have lost 64 lbs in the last year, ...but that was starting strong in October - January, maintaining jan - May , then back again may - now.

    I would really like to be under 200 lbs by may 2011 - which would be about another 45 or so lbs...If i don't make it it is okay but want to try as much as i can.


    I have goals I want to achieve in between...but it is just an idea...usally if i don't make it i am not devastated, just re-adjust and continue on...

    My goal is to lose 135lbs by April 2012 - I turn 40 and that'll bring me to 200lbs. I think it's do-able considering how much I have to lose. After that, I don't know - I'll have to re-set my goal.

    I started this diary at 205 pounds. I want to get down to at least 155. Then I will see if I want to push for 145.

    I have not set a specific date to reach my goal weight. I don't know how long it will take. Some weeks I might drop a pound and other times I will go for 3 weeks staying at the same weight. Then suddenly drop a pound and then another pound three days later.

    I started this journey by working out in May--didn't weight myself at the time. When I weighed in I was 230 so I started this in June. My goal is by next June to be around 130 pounds. I've lost 32 so far. However, what's been more exciting is the inches and sizes going down which has been faster and the muscle gain. So if I don't make it *shrugs* not a big deal to me.

    Want to lose the rest of my weight at the very latest by this time next year but I'm pretty sure come summer time (June/July) I'll be there!

    50 pounds by 10-1-11. Completely atainable.
    Averages out to be less than 1 pound a week. If I lose more, great, if not... I will still weigh less this time next year than I do right now. :bigsmile:

    In early September, I set a goal to lose 20 pounds by Christmas. I have lost 5 pounds so far. I have been on MFP for one week, and I have seen an improvement in my eating habits now that I am keeping track of my food and exercise. I think I will be able to reach my goal, then I will set another one. My long term goal is 70 pounds. I find the big goal easier to achieve if I break it up into small goals. I have lost a total of 20 pounds of the long term goal. It has taken a while, but I am on my way..

    Hi

    my overall goal is to loose some 80lbs, that would put me in a quite healthy state, and I haven't set a date for this.

    I have a date-goal, which is loose 40lbs until next summer holiday (July '11), and that would be half way.
    If I loose 1lb/week, as recommanded, this goal is reached in June, but you never know what comes on your way.

    I don't mind if I don't reach a goal ( be it mini or maxi) but any date, as long as the scale shows decreasing numbers :-)
