You can do it! I would like to be around 150 by Christmas... and that is 35 pounds from where I am now.0
-
I, too, have 35 lbs to lose to get to my goal...good luck!0
-
I have 43lbs to go....its a bit much but I am going to work my butt off once I am feeling better again!0
-
I also hope to be below 200 by Christmas. I just started and have lost 9 lbs in 2 wks. This site has been the biggest help. I don' t have to figure anything out. Good luck to all0

I am totally with you! I have the same small-term goal! I have 8 lbs to go...0
-
I'm with you and we can do it, I'm amazed I've lost 7 lbs since the 7th so anything is possible. Just stick with it, you'll do great, baby steps.....slow and steady is the ticket if you want to keep it off

That's my goal too but at the rate I'm losing, I don't think I will make it ... I might get pretty close though ... When I started eating right, I weighed 240.. When I joined this site, I weighed 230 .. I just hit the 218 mark but that's after the scales stayed at 221 for three weeks straight.. I had to increase my calories recently because I was feeling weak and hungry all the time...I've found that it's safer to lose it more slowly, as frustrating as that is.0

This is actually a doable goal for me I think...I am going to try to do this too! I am at 223 currently and have really picked up work outs...lets see how this goes!0
-
I'm right with you. I have 35lbs to go. If I'm the way I am this week, every week, I might make it.0
-
I wish. I have 30lbs to go. I honestly don't even remember being less than 220 and I was 220 when I was 14/0
-
There is no way I can be even 200 by Christmas. I am with you anyway. Good luck.0

I would love to, I have 40 more lbs. to lose and it has taken me almost a year to lose this past 40 lbs. It's hard for me to see it happening with me :-(. Wow, what a fabulous Christmas gift to myself that would be! I am going to continue to try! Best wishes to you!!0

I have 40+ LBS to lose but i too would like to be under or right at 200 for Christmas 0

I'm with you! Hypothyroid is making this weight loss excrutiatingly difficult, so might as well entertain myself with a goal. Had gained 35 pounds in pregnancy, thyroid problem started, never got back to anything less then 200 since then. I've dragged myself back on the weight loss wagon after broken knee cap stopped my active life and I had eaten my frustrations back to 218/220. Motivated, fully involved in rehab to get my life back. Under 200 is the sweet spot! Let's go...0

I would like to be below 200 by my birthday next week and down to my goal of 150 by Christmas. We can do this.0
-
With you 100%!! I have 19 more to go to be at 199 and I cannot wait! 0
-
That is already a goal for me. I joined a group that started August 1st to lose 50 pounds by christmas. If I hit it, I will weigh 198!! Such a huge mile stone for me becuse I will no longer be considered obes!! So yes, I am with you!! :happy: :drinker: :drinker: 0

GOOD LUCK EVERYONE....WE CAN DO IT!
I haven't been below 200 in 11 years since I gained 116 lbs on depression and anxiety pills!
Every year I say I'm gonna get to 199 (my ultimate goal is another 30 lbs below that) and every year I fail myself.
This year I've lost about 1/2 the hair on my head - still don't know why but I'm convinced it's from the medications I was on from my asthma (which also makes it nearly impossible to exercise) so I'm at my ultimate low.
I really need something to boost me up and if I can FINALLY get to my short-term goal by the end of this year, maybe I'll feel better about things - although at this rate, I'm thinking I'll be shopping for a new wig in 2013, more so than shopping for smaller clothes!0 -
I just got there last week..currently at 198 but good luck to each of you, you can do it!!0
-
My Birthday is Dec 1, I am exercising my butt off trying to get under 200 but if I don't I will shoot for Christmas either way it will be a wonderful day.0
-
Bump, I'd love to pop on just to see everyone's progress! Anything is possible. Getting through the holidays is hard, but I know you can do it!0
-
I am right there with you too!! 22lbs to go for me to be at 200 but am more than willing willing to try. Definitely need and willing to give support 0
-
Same here. I have 19 pounds to go!0
-
I've got a good 15 or so to go to 200. My goal is Halloween. I might be pushing my luck, but I'll be giving it hell.0
-
Same here. I struggle to lose weight. I am hovering just about 200. Would love to see 199 by 12/25!0
-
I'm in it with you! I also have 35 pounds to loose!
Good luck! 0 -
I would love, love, love to be below 200 by Christmas but that is going to be tough for me, I would have to average close to 4 pounds a week til then
I will try to get as close to it as possible. Good luck to all of you! 0 -
Me too...I have 39 lbs. to lose but I think I finally have a plan that works. Last week I saw a 3.7 lb. drop before I was only seeing about 0.5 lbs at a time.0

Me too, I am with you! Down to 214 from 260. I am so close, I can taste it lol0
