    I've lost just over 70lbs and it will be a year in 9 days. Totally possible and realistic. :)

    Since last February, I have lost 80 pounds! What I can tell you about losing that much weight is that now 50F seems COLD!!! I used to go out in 45F weather and walk my dogs w/o a coat. Now, when its 55 or colder, I wear a wind breaker and zip it all the way up. I lost mine from running long distance: 30-35 miles a week. Completed my first marathon (full marathon 26.2 miles) on November 13th (my birthday) - San Antonio Rock and Roll Marathon :):):)

    I lost 100lbs from Feb 15th to Dec 25th. Id say its possible just dont get discouraged and keep working at it! I still have 20lbs to my goal but more or less on maintenance as Dr curtailed all my lower body exercise until after my hip surgery in March!

    Good luck!

    Yes, I am eager to lose a little over 70 lbs this year, but I want to set short term goals. I would be glad to average 2 lbs a week; anything else is a bonus. I lost 40 lbs last year while using this site. As soon as I stopped using the site, I went into a stand still for a while then giined a bit back over the holidays. We can do this.

    If you put your head down, get to work and go after it there's no reason you shouldn't be able to reach your goals! Of course, it won't be easy, but you're in the right place for awesome tools and support!

    Best wishes to you on your journey!
