So my goal from now until December is.............

To lose 25 lbs. I think that is fair.

SW 274
CW 258
GW 174

I have lost 15 lbs in 77 days and would love to get under 250 - closer to 230 - so 25 lbs will bring me to 238.

    CW 135.6lbs

    my UGW is actually 119lbs but my weight loss has slowed right down, and although the scale is moving again I dont want to totally demotivate myself. Although if I get that fr down Ill be pretty pleased with myself!

    Hi everyone!

    When I joined MFP in July I was 190lbs! I had lost weight for a wedding last November and I was about 165lbs. I couldn't believe I had gained almost all the weight I had lost back because I had reverted, stopped going to the gym and ate junk throughout all the holidays. Ideally I would like to be about 140lbs by 12/31 of this year. I am still unsure I will be able to make that weight or that it would be healthy to lose so much weight between now and then.

    CW - 173.6
    GW - between 145lbs -140lbs
    UGW between 120-130lbs (by May/June of next year)

    I have set 3 mini goal dates
    Oct 24 (my birthday) Goal - 160lbs
    Nov 22 (Thanksgiving) Goal - 150lbs
    Dec 31 (New Years Eve!) Goal - 140lbs

    This challenge is great to help ensure I meet this goals! Right now losing any weight and keeping it off during all the upcoming events will be motivation for me, but I hope to find some great friends and help motivate others who will motivate me!

    I'd like to lose about 20 lbs in total, and we'll see from there. I'm around 140 lbs now but I'm really short so I wanna get down to 120, maybe even 115 in the end :]

    I think, if I push it, I can lose 10lbs a month. So I will shoot for 30lbs from whatever I weigh on Sept 15th.

    My goal is to get under 210. I am currently at 232, so I need to lose 23 pounds. If I can get under 210, then I can see my way out of the 200s!

    My goal with this challenge is to lose 25 pounds by Dec 15th, from whatever I weigh on the 15th of Sept. I also want to keep at the changes I've made, healthier eating and exercise. Overall, I love the inspiration that I get from others here on MFP. I get support too, in giving it, that's also inspiring me.

    for me i think realistically losing 25-30 pounds would be a set goal. I would like 40, but not sure if it would happen. I need to get my eating down to a science. i got the workout part down.

    So i will say 25 pounds to keep it safe.....thats about 6 pounds a month.
