    I'm only at 31, and I've been at it since August 21st. It's different for everybody, though. Comparing your progress with someone else's will only make you crazy.

    Makes a difference whether it's the first 35 of significantly more, or the last 35.

    Since it seems from your ticker that 35 will take you to your goal weight, I'd say about 8-10 months, conservatively. You can probably lose one pound a week for the first 20-25, then you should aim for a half pound a week for the final 10-15.

    I have lost 30lbs. Today, is day 69 on MFP. This is my 1st 35 so I'm sure the wt loss will slow down as I get closer to my goal. MFP ROCKS!!!
