    Started as size 26 - 52 weeks later I was in size 14 :-)

    good luck - it is so rewarding - and the benefits and "feel good" starts way before you get to the "end", so dont get despondant about how far away it seems - every dress size down is a major cause for celebration - and shopping for cuter clothes :-)

    How - Eating around 1500 calories a day - and about 50% of my exercise calories (Heart Rate monitor measured)
    Lifting heavy things 4 times a week - and High Intensity type cardio - lots of time on bike and elliptical

    I was a 24+, now 14ish. It's taken about a year and a half and I still need to lose about 50 pounds. I hope to be in a size 8-10 when I finish, which might be another year or two.

    previously a 24/26 now I can fit a 18P..I want to try a 16P in the next 10lb or so..its probably taken me 6mths to really drop the weight total..hard to say because it took a long time to figure out thyroid meds.

    size 22/24 in June of 2011
    size 8/10 in September of 2012

    It took around 15 minutes. I would say I'm a solid 10 now, though I have clothes in my closet that fit ranging from 6 to 14. Pics in profile.

    For the record, it's a hell of a lot more fun shopping now.

    edited to add: I just noticed this thread was started in November of 2011. Sadly, the OP's ticker still says 0 pounds lost. The years will pass whether you make a change or not.

    I started as a size 24W, headed into a size 26W, and now 10 months later I am a size 20- (not a 20W), my soft goal is size 16 and a much harder goal is 12-14- so I am halfway to my stated goal!!

    I am now a 16 and it took me about 5 months with 60 minutes of aerobic cardio and 30 minutes of strength training 6 days a week.

    Size 24-26 and now a 20 after losing 50 pounds over the last 19 months. A long way to go to size 10 but I will get there!

    ok here goes! I am a 16/18 now and weigh 227! Totally depressed because I am so heavy but hoping by entering what I eat it will help me stay on track. Starting to walk - would like to hear how everyone took off there weight besides watching what they ate! Thanks for any help you can offer!

    October 20, 2011 - Size 26W

    Now - Size 8 in dresses and pants, Size Small or Medium in Tops, plus I dropped 2 shoe sizes from a size 10 to a size 8.

    I think I went from the 26W to a size 14 in about a year. This year has been slower of course, but I'm happy with being a size 8 and only 2.2 pounds from my goal weight.

    This time last year I weighed 280 and wore 24 borderline 26... I now weigh 253 and my size 22 pants are getting too big but I'm not quite yet in a 20. I hope to be in 18s by mid fall :)

    Started at 22, close enough? I'm down 33 lbs and can fit into a 16 comfortably. Some 14s if I'm stubborn enough. I still have 60lbs to go, but a lot is stomach so don't figure I will go down much further than 10/12 in total.
    I was a size 22 at the beginning of March this year, so 5 and a half months so far.

    Starting: Size 24 and 245 pounds
    Current: Size 6 & 8 (depending on brand) and 148 pounds
    Time: about 24 months
    Thing that helped me the most: changing my eating habits to low glycemic

    was a size 28 or 30 and now at size 6 or 8 at 133 lbs. It took around 19 months to get to 145 and another 3-4 months to get to 135. I am keeping between 130 and 140 for almost a year.

    I started a 24 in March 2012. Today I wear a 16. I've lost just about 70 pounds. I have another 50 to go.
