I lost 123 lbs total in 2012 (my goal was 125), so I am pretty stoked! My goal in 2013 is another 80-100lbs. I would love some motivational friends who have a similar goal. I have been working so hard and I am so excited its been all worth it :happy:

    I am down 117 lbs and 2 lbs from goal though I'll probably lower that goal about 10 lbs to get my body fat where I would like it to be. Congrats on your accomplishments so far... keep up the good work. Your destination is well worth the journey.
