    My niece's wedding at the end of March. Most of my family hasn't seen me in around 2 years. I'm already 40 lbs down from then and just want to be in the 130's. I'm at 140.6 so anything past 139 will be a great bonus!

    I'd like to be at my target weight for the end of June so I can look better in a bikini when I go on holiday!

    My youngest's birthday is exactly 14 weeks from today so I want a stone off by then and then my birthday is 15 weeks after that so I want another stone by then and that will put me around 5lb off my goal weight.

    I admire everyone's targeted dates. For me, though, there is no "end date" in mind. I'd like to be all over toned and bikini ready by end of April when I go to Florida, but if that doesn't happen, it's no big deal.

    I'm seeing some big results and changes for the first time in a long time, and that's the motivation I need to keep going.

    My husband had set a goal to drop some pounds in a month for his big ski trip at the end of January. He lost 8 lbs, which was good. Well, the trip is over, he no longer cares about his weight, and he's put some weight back on.

    So, I have a slight problem with an "end date", because once that date passes, will the motivation remain?? For some, it doesn't. For others, yes.

    June 10th. Work trip to Kansas, get to see all of the long distance co-workers and vendors.

    The first year I was disgusted with myself, second, I had lost about 20 lbs, last year I had lost about 35-40 lbs and I have gained some back. Wanna look my best this year as we are part of a historic project in our industry, and I will have much more exposure!

    5 pounds in 7 weeks - when I go on holiday to Croatia with my family. I would love to not hate the holiday photos, and feel better in a swimsuit...

    I already passed my goal which was by Christmas. The last half of last year I kind of slacked. I didn't really gain, I just quit trying to lose. I am getting back into high gear to finish to my goal. I would like to lose 23 pounds by Memorial Day weekend. That is when I will be traveling to my friend's military retirement ceremony. Then in the summer when I have 2 graduations and the beach I will be in good shape.

    My daughter graduates from high school on June 15th - would love to be at 199 or as close to it as possible. It's not my goal weight, but it just sounds so much better than being in the 200"s

    Most definitely have a date! I have a challenge with a co-worker that we wear our old military dress uniform or BDUs to work on Memorial Day. He is underweight from his AF days so it's not much of a challenge for him, but I have to get down to less than 180 or to about 31" in waist. Really, I want to be there by latter part of April and wear my Army Dress Greens to church for my daughter's 9th BDay! Neither one of my kids have seen me in BDUs or anything Army related, but I haven't been able to wear it since the late 80s either. Les and I are taking this challenge seriously and we will even wear our hair and mustache according to military regs.

    We go to the beach the week of July 4th, and I have 19 or so pounds left to lose, and some serious toning still in progress!

    Initially I would have said YES because the weight dropped off before I started exercising, then it began to fluctuate. So now I have a goal to be bikini ready by November this year, I'm not sure which weight that will be. Summer's ending in Australia now so that still gives me 9 more months to be prepared! I've never been able to wear a bikini and have a body I've been proud of so this will be amazing!

    I'm hoping to be down 40 total by May 1. Since I'm at 23 as of last Tuesday I feel that's a feasible goal. 17 more in 2 1/2 months seems very do-able at my current state.

    If I could be down 80 by mid-September, that would be great but if not, as long as I'm still on this journey, getting stronger and healthier, I won't be as worried about the actual number. :)
