So I have 21lb left to lose to get to my target weight that I set in January 2011 and I just wondered how much everyone else has to lose to get to there's. Why not add your starting weight and how many lbs remaining to get to your ideal weight.

I will start it, I have 21lb left to lose and started at 250lb

    Swaymyway that is astonishing well done. You must be so frustrated at that last few lbs, I know I have been about getting into onederland.

    Hmm, maybe we should add the motivation of the weight lose as well and how to chose your target weight.

    I'll start, I went to a Gordon Ramsay restaurant for my 30th birthday and the wife took a picture of me outside next to the sign and that picture made me realise his how big I was, looking back now I can I was in total denial at that point. What was supposed to be a great birthday treat started my weight lose journey.

    I chose my target weight based on the bmi scale and who knows, maybe when I get there I'll still wanna lose a bit more.

    Started Aug 2007 at 257... currently 152... Have 17 left to lose

    It has been a slow process, but I just keep moving downward, sometimes slower than I want , but I stick with it
    I just joined mfp to get a better grasp on what I was eating.

    4 to go. I may decide to lose another 10 after that--I'll still be at a healthy weight whether I lose 4 or 14.

    I just crossed over my halfway point! I've lost 17.4 since joining MFP on 2/7/11 and have 16.4 to go! That will put me smack dab in the middle of my BMI for my height. I can adjust from there! The first half didn't leave very quickly and I'll bet the second half will go even more slowly!! I'm here for the duration!

    Because I'm weight training, I'd like to lose 2% fat instead of pounds.

    I've lost 44.6 and have 67.6 left to go to reach my first goal. Then we'll see from there. :)

    I have 8-10 lbs. left to lose, but this seems more difficult than the first 22 lbs. for some reason. :/

    Meparker, Isn't it nice to see other people's achievements to push yourself that little bit harder. I never knew when I started I could get this far and it's mostly due to topics on here that have inspired me to continue.

    Well done to all that have replied
