I am a TOPS (Taking Off Pounds Sensibly) member. My starting weight was 205.5 in 2007. My goal weight was 160. I finally reached my goal weight at our meeting tonight. I had several years of attending meetings and not really making any progress. This year I woke up and started believing in myself. I started keeping a daily food and exercise dairy. I have changed my life style. I allow an occasional splurge, but then I get right back on track. This time I will not allow myself to regain my weight. It helps to have a support group. I plan to continue attending TOPS so I stay focused. I feel so much better. I believe I can lose an additional 5 pounds before New Years. I am starting that goal right now. I wish success for everyone following this messge board.

Hi I am in!
I lost 16 in 8 weeks so figure I can double that for 15 weeks, but not quite so will go with 30 lbs down by New Years! Double incentive as I am going home at that same time to visit, would love to go with that much gone!

I usually do not have a problem with the food, so plan is to continue eating the healthier foods that i have been. I dont have cheat days. So my plan needs to focus on getting more exercise in on my busy schedule.

Checking in - another 2 lbs

I plan on following the calories that MFP recommends for 2lb/wk weight loss (currently 1430)
I will work out at least 3x per week
I will run a 5K on Thanksgiving day
I will drink at least 8 glasses of water per day
I will add strength training

Well I did it. I got down below 250!

I also met all of my behavioral goals. I did, however. up my calories to losing 1lb/wk (1840 calories).

I hope everyone else is well!

I did it. Hooray! I actally am under my goal at TOPS. Now I'm trying to maintain and/or reach for 150 lbs. My TOPS recorded goal was 160. Exercising regularly and journalling really help. I'm feeling so much better, and my cholestrol counts were much better when I went for my physical. Happy New Year everyone! My goal for the new year is to keep off the wight, cotinueto exercise and journal... I definietly do not want to regain my weight. I've been there and done that. NOT THS TIME!
