    I dropped my first 40 pounds in about 3 months. Started at 283, and am currently at 218. I slowed down purposely to give my skin time to shrink with the rest of my body so i didnt have any sagging. so far its worked great, down 65 pounds in 1 year (tomorrow is my 1 year) and am feeling great!

    The most I lost was 43 lbs. That was in June 2012. Took about 9 months to get there. I'm currently in maintenance mode fluctuating within 2 lbs of my goal weight. couldn't be happier .... :)

    I have lost 67 pounds in 6 months. I'm getting ready to start insanity, hopefully to loose more inches than pounds.

    Lost 62+ (not sure, as not weighing right now, but know it is more than 62) on MFP and about 4 before I joined. Down from 290.

    I am 53 years old and started February 1, 2012~had a total abdominal hysterectomy on March 6 and after released by doctor started exercising. Short term goal is to get to OneDerland~LT goal is 150 lbs for a total lost of 140. It may take me a year from now to realize this goal, but it WILL happen!

    I've lost 52lbs--don't have "progress pictures" but I will say that I went from a snug 24 to a loose 20/snug 18. It took me about 5-6 mos (slow progress) but I keep in mind that I haven't been as "disciplined" as I could have been. I did this w/o a 'workout' regimen so imagine if I had incorporated one. :)

    Thats AWESOME!!

    My highest loss was 50. I started at 194 and hit 144 in March. I tend to get off track, so it took me about a year I think. (here's to hoping the photo fits/works)

    OMG I was 190 and now 141.... I just looked at old pictures of me at 190 and I don't believe it.... You look wonderful! When I think of it now I don't think it is that much of a difference until I put the pictures up and I'm like "OMG seriously?"

    A year and 1/2 to lose 45lbs. Why? Because it took me that long to get my act together. I made little changes over a very long period of time and it really worked for me. I knew I couldn't jump into this and make drastic changes to my routine. I would never stick with something if I had to change EVERYTHING Day 1...

    80 lbs in 6 months. Then I got pregnant, and I am now just shy of 4 months postpartum. I hope to hit a loss of 100 before the summer.

    This is from 5/11 - 12/11

    I've lost 51lbs (maybe a couple more now) since July last year when I started exercising again when my 2nd baby was 7 weeks old, so it's taken me 16 months.

    This is me with my very small baby:
