    I hit the 40lb lost mark this morning (then woke my husband up to tell him needless to say at 6am he wasn't that interested :D) It's taken me 4 months.

    I started the first week of May and have lost 55 lbs. I still have at least 35 lbs to go. Pics are in the profile. Not really sure how much I weighed in first pic. And I really don't see much of a difference which completely sucks.

    Yes. I lost exactly 40 pounds...then gained back a few, however, I'm going to get to my goal weight, the same way I did it before. Eat less, move more.

    I started in October of 2008, took some time off to deal with medical issues, and then resumed the 'downward climb'. I reached my goal in March of 2012. Net total time was about 2 1/2 years to lose 240 pounds, or about 2/3 of me!

    Absolutely amazing!
    I lost 67 pounds 5 years ago and that took about a year. Have recently regained 17 pounds but in the last 2 months have lost 14 of that. My profile pictures shows me at around 170. There are not pictures of me at 185 which was my top weight, now almost 7 years ago.

    I started June 18 (2012) and lost 40lbs in 3.5 months, since then it's slowed a little (to be expected), but still going. Pics are on my profile. Hoping to meet my goal by May 2013 :smile:

    I hope this works! The first pic is my post performance pic from last years belly dance hafla, which was the clincher to "do something" - the second was taken last week after this years performance.

    Lost 43 pounds since April 1, so about 5 pounds per month but my body composition has changed a lot as well. I was actually losing a lot more quickly when I was just eating about 1300 cals with no exercise but I am feeling much better eating higher amounts and exercising. Trying to lose weight slowly now. :) It's funny because no one noticed the first 30 pounds and when I started working out everyone noticed the changes in my body.

    It took me about 8 months to lose 40lbs. I've lost 60lbs all up and I've been doing this for about 15 months now. Weight loss has slowed a lot since August, as I dont have much left to lose and I am focusing on lifting and eating more than I was.
