    Hi, I am Deb. I joined MFP one week ago tomorrow.

    55 years young.
    Height: 5' 5"
    Current weight: 194 (not my all time high)
    Goal by January 1,2013: 187
    Target life goal: a fit 180 by April.

    My goal is 40 pounds higher than insurance charts and 5 pounds more than my doctor and I said - but if I can get down to and maintain 180 I will be satisfied. If I go further - that would be a bonus.

    We can do it!!

    Hi! I joined a few days ago when I hit my all time high of 230. I'm 5'6 and 1/2 (counting every half). I don't know if I can lose to 199 by New Year's Eve, but I'm going to try. I love hearing what other people are doing to lose weight. I had lost 35 lbs last year, but gained about 25 back. I'm tired of fluctuating.

    Hi All,

    I could use some more motivational supporters here.

    I was doing great for about 7 weeks, then fell off for two weeks, and am now back on the horse!

    My body currently weighs 205 pounds.
    My highest was something between 220 and 230, but I didn't want to know so avoided scales religiously... this was about 3 years ago.

    I started MPF at 210#

    I'm 5'10" and definitely have a larger frame (couldn't fit into a size 10 due to hip bone structure, even when I weighed 170#).

    My ultimate goal is something around 170-180#.

    I'm tracking 10# at a time on my ticker.

    I feel a little concerned for people who are saying they want to lose 20# by January 1st because that's 8 weeks from now.

    wow we have similar goals. Want to be totally out of my current size 18 by Christmas, no looking back. And out of a 16 by Valentines day. To be truly those sizes without having to cover anything up. Have not been in onederland since August 2009.

    Ultimate goal right now is 170 (hopefully by March)

    I just joined this Group and i'm hoping to give and get some motivation and support. Also like the idea of a goal for new years. But Just wondering what is the meaning of "onederland" Anybody know.

    "Onderland" means you weigh less than 200 pounds. Sounds so easy and yet is so hard to get there!

    Same here! I feel like the couch is attached to my butt. Nobody's fault but my own. Today I will go for a walk!

    I'm 36 yo and 5'11"
    At my heaviest I was 274
    Currently about 245
    Just joined MFP last week and I love it. I won't hit One-derland by the new year but I'm gonna push for 20 lbs down! My first big goal is that elusive 199! Then I plan to reset and head for 170. That's the last weight that I felt good at.
    Mostly counting calories right now but need to add the exercise back in. Used to be a runner and a dancer. Would love to do both again!

    Sorry I am a bit late.

    I am 36 years old, 5'5.5.
    The highest I have weighed was 267.
    I currently weigh 206.
    I started my journey in January 2012, although I have struggled with my weight for almost my whole life.
    My goal is to be 199.9 on New Years Eve. Slow and steady is the only way I can go.
    Ultimately my goal weight in the end is around 160-170 I believe, I am more concerned with my body fat than the scale though.

    Hi all, my name is Chyna. I am 5'4" and 202 lbs. My goal is to reach 190lbs by January of 2013 and ultimate goal of 170lbs of fit, toned hotness (:laugh: ). I never wanted to be skinny, I love my curves, I just want to accentuate them in the best way possible. Looking forward to all the support and motivation, and I am here to do the same
