190s to 160s Anyone???

I ended 2011 in the high 190s, started back with Weight Watchers in December and was introduced to MFP in January at about 192lbs. I started training for a half marathon in February, which I ran in May. Running, and watching what I was eating, helped me lose 27lbs in about 4 months. I am currently 167.8 and 5 weeks into the Insanity DVD workout. I have gained almost 3lbs since I started, but have lost inches!

If I can lose it, so can you!

i started out 212 in october 2011 and i am 170 currently. i want to get to 145- 150 for my height i am 5'5 so well see i just take it a day at a time and do lots of cardio and weights, i plateaued for a whole month so we shall see i would like to reach my goal weight by november.

i was around 196 a few months ago now im 169 .im 5`10 i wanna be around 145-150

I'm 5'7.5 I am currently 188, I'd like to get down to 160 -165 as I am medium framed. My starting weight wad 257(I cringed just typing that) I exercise. 5-6days a week going cardio and strength training, I also IF 2 times a week. Feel free to add me so we can support one another.

I am 5'9", started out around 205 and now am 190ish. I would like to be down to 160-150 by the End of the World Marathon on 12/21/12. I plan to achieve my goal by running, yoga-ing, and just being more active. I aim to eat at least a pound of raw veg per day during the week and try to stay below 2000 cals on the weekends.

I'm close to where you are, OP. I'm 5'6" and currently sitting between 200 and 202 and so SURE I'll get below 200 any week now. I thought I'd be there by mid-June, but now it's looking like mid-August. Had a lot of personal things that have kept me from making significant progress (though I'm staying the same, so I'll take that as a "win.") My first goal is 150 and from there I'll re-evaluate (although I don't think I'd aim for anything lower than 140.)

What I am currently doing:
Mon: 25 min walk, 15 min elliptical, 20 min full-body bodyweight TRX circuit
Tue: 25 min walk, 25 min elliptical HIIT, 30 min elliptical
Wed: 25 min walk, 15 min elliptical, 20 min full-body bodyweight TRX circuit
Thur: 25 min elliptical HIIT, 30 min elliptical
Fri: 25 min walk, 25 min elliptical
Sat: 15 min elliptical, 20 min full-body bodyweight TRX circuit
Sun: Off, or hike with family

I cycle calories so that I eat less Mon-Thur (920 cal as a base + I eat all my exercise calories back) and more on Fri-Sun (on weekends, realistically, I know I am going to eat more, so I account for that.) Fri-Sun I plan 3000 calories as a base + eat back exercise calories.

I eat paleo and have my macros set at 20% carb, 30% protein and 50% fat. It's been 14 months since I started and I've lost 65 lbs.

Im 198 5 ft 7 and I want to get to 161 if I did it by christmas I would be over the moon but im not putting a time frame on it

5"5" At me peak I weighed 191. Currently at 162. I watch starches and sugars but have recently added bicycling and the gym. It works for me.

I'm 5'4 and currently 182 (started at 205, this time). My goal is roughly 150ish. I'm more concerned with how I look, than I am with the number on the scale. I am curvy and want to stay that way. I just would prefer that my curves not jiggle quite as much! I picked 150 to just have a goal in my head because I remember back when I was 150 before (years and years and years ago) I liked how I looked. When I get closer to it, I'll see how I feel.

I'm currently working out 5-6 days/week. I do alot of cardio (incline intervals on the treadmill, elliptical, bike, Zumba, walking outside, bike riding outside) and I try to do weights (machines, not free) at least twice a week. I wear a HRM for all of my workouts now to try to get an accurate calorie burn (I found that the estimates on MFP, Zumbacalories.com and my gym's fitness site were not very accurate - in most cases too high and in a few cases, too low) especially because I LOVE to eat and I tend to eat back most of my exercise calories!

Feel free to add me if you want to (anyone can). I log every day and I try to support my friends!! :flowerforyou:

I agree with those that are saying that the better goal is 150. I'm 5'6" and went from 177 down to 152 (still two pounds to go). My original goal was 160 lbs but I hit that so easily (and was unhappy with how I still looked) so I changed my goal to 150. I will say that I plan on gaining 10 lbs back to 160 after I hit my goal.

My highest was 190 however I started here at 185 and im currently 171. Trying to get to 165.

I've been stuck in the 190s for 2 months.. Need to get back to low carb, but my first goal is to be in the 160s by November. My overall goal is 130s by next May!

Wow..so much weight loss success in such a short time...it's both motivating and depressing at the same time...I got to my highest weight of about 209 in Jan and after SEVEN months all i've managed to do is lose and regain the same FOUR lbs...which I'm once again trying to lose (and MOVE ON!!!)...while I know I haven't been eating the way i should consistently...I didn't expect to be so unsuccessful up to this point...I have not generally been "pigging out" and I was in the gym 2 or 3 days a week :sad: ...nevertheless...started Insanity and am currently in Week 3 and hoping this will finally push my body into "lose mode"....I'm 5'7 and my goal is to get to 150...I will be overjoyed to even get to a lean, toned 160 by Christmas!

I'm 5'8" and my goal is around 165lbs, hopefully to stay under 168lbs since that seems to be my trouble weight where things start going back up not down. I'm happy to be friends with anyone in this range so we can keep each other moving!

I'm 5'5.5" started at 214, currently at 185.. Goal is 160.
