    I would like to lose 45 pounds to reach my long term goal. Since my "2nd time" around on MFP I've lost and kept off 7 lbs (it took me a year). Slow and easy wins the race! Just need to keep focused!

    42 lbs! I just found out yesterday that I'm actually obese for my height, not by much but it's time to change!

    Losing 42 will put me right at the middle of what I'm "supposed" to weigh for my height... but I haven't been that small since middle school so we'll see how it goes!

    My highest was 248lbs and my height is 5' 4"
    Went down to 163lbs
    Gained back to 223lbs
    Currently 217.5lbs
    Would like to be 199lbs by New Years, and if I get under 205lbs by x-mas I'm going to treat myself to a new hair-do for new years.
    In the end I would like to be between 130-140lbs depending on how much muscle I want to gain.
    My goal was always to get skinny but in the past few years I have changed my mind to fit. I want sexi abs!

    This is exactly why we cannot stop! My story:
    Got to 198. Dieted to 170 quit gained to 204.
    Dieted to 174. Quit. Gained to 208
    Dieted to 170 quit. Gained to 218

    See the pattern? Omg. I dont DARE stop again! What's your story?

    Lord, you sound like me. By the time I am done, I will weigh less than I did when I graduated high school, a VERY long time ago(31 years)

    45 lbs to go for me. To be honest though, I just want to be healthy. If I keep 15-20 of those pounds as muscle, I'll be a happy camper.

    Same here. Once I reach a weight I'm comfortable at, I'm going to stop and focus on getting stronger! Grr!

    I've got 70lbs down on my ticker, but I may want to lose about 20lbs more than that. It depends on how I feel.

    My initial goal is 45lbs, this will get me to 175, the weight I was when I got married. This is also the lowest weight I've been at in my adult life. Once I get back there I will reevaluate how I feel, since ultimately I think I would like to 150. Which is 70lbs.

    My goal is to lose 10, with a stretch target of 15 (that would take me down to 125lbs), but weight is less important than me fitting into my clothes again! I had a baby 13 weeks ago, and my fall clothes don't fit- it appears that even the underside of my arms were pregnant...:smile:
