HOLY CRAP BRO! What an amazing transformation! You look great...0 -
50 pounds since July, so 5 months? Hopefully I'll drop these next 50 in the same time.0
-
I lost about 20 last year. This year, it took me almost 6 months exactly to drop 40.0

I weighed 191lbs in the summer of 2010. I did Weight Watchers and got down to 184lb (that was the start of my 2011 summer). I started dieting in July 2011 and have lost a total of 53lbs. I did the 17 Day Diet to begin with and then started watching what I eat and moving move! I eat what I want in moderation. I try to exercise a little bit everyday.0

I started in February, and I hit 40lbs lost, just this past week. I've averaged about 0.9 lbs loss per week. (Some weeks more, some less, but that's the average)
I've been deliberately aiming for slow loss, because I want this to be a permanent change.0 -
Lost an average of one pound per week for a whole year. Was not linear some weeks I lost more and some less. Even hit a plateau for a few weeks towards the end but it averaged out the same. Maintaining muscle mass was just as much of a priority for me as losing the weight so I was not in a hurry.0

I've lost 50lbs so far w/ MFP. I started 290 days ago (so mid/end of Feb 2012). At first I had set my calorie goals to just lose 0.5lbs/wk so i could get used to counting calories and pretty much not GAIN any more weight. I didn't get "serious" and set it to 1lb/wk until mid April. I didn't start really exercising (beyond just walking) until mid June.0

40 lbs exactly since May 2012.0

September 10, 2012 @ 315 pounds.
November 15, 2012 @ 275 pounds.
So, 2 months and 5 days.
BUT... my doctor had me on a super strict low calorie high protein diet to drop weight FAST because I was at a very critical place in my health. Once I dropped that first 40, we changed it all up and now I am supposed to be losing at a much more realistic and sustainable rate.
Next weigh in is the end of next week, so we'll see that I did in month 3.0 -
Yep...first 40 came off in about 4 months. Second 40 took another 17 months. Surprisingly, it doesn't bother me it's happening much slower now. It's still coming off, so why worry. Besides, I'm too busy being awesome.0

I have lost 44lbs in 16 months.
I was 192 lbs and now weigh 148 lbs. If I can get down to 140 lbs I will be happy as I am quite tall, at 5ft 10
40 lbs was lost on my own and 4lbs is through MFPI have so many encouraging friends, it's no wonder so many people achieve their goals on here!! To everyone on this post: WOW!! Well done
You've all done brilliantly

i have lost 79 total..only 35 since I have been on here! I guess it has been around 10 months since I began my journey!0
-
Since being on MFP I've lost 38. So from July to now. But officially since February I'm down 50 lbs.0
-
I just hit the 45lb mark today! It took me like 7 or 8 months. It seems to be very slow, but it's working!
My MFP friends have been awesome motivators!Due to my age and several medical issues, it took me a year to lose 45 pounds then another year to lose 15 pounds. I'm thinking it will take another year to lose the last 15 pounds. I don't know how to post pics or I'd gladly do so.
Great job! Good for you for sticking with it! I know a lot of people who lose slowly and just give up. You should be proud of yourself!0 -
45 pounds since late March/early April. Never took starting pics - a decision I now regret a bit. I averaged .18 pounds a day or 5.4 days to lose 1 pound.0
-
I just hit my 50lb mark on Sunday, and I started my weight loss journey in April of 2011. It's taken me quite a while! About 17lbs more to go to be in my healthy BMI range!0
