    I've passed my original goal by 3 pounds, now aiming for 10-15 more depending on where my body fat ends up.

    Somewhere between 4 and 8 lbs from goal. But I'm focusing less and less on the scale now a days, just focusing on measurements.

    The dreaded last 10 lbs. I've lost 70 lbs. so far. Never thought I would get this far, almost there.
  • 15 lbs. down..9 lbs to go.

    I'm not sure! I was down 40lbs then started gaining muscle weight, about 8lbs of it! I know this because I measure smaller. Now I've recently joined a gym and the scale is going back down, but I know I'm still building more muscle. lol My original goal weight was 120-125 and that would give me another 20lbs to lose. I would be skin and bones at that weight, so I guess I'll just go by body fat% and how I look. Either way, my goal is June also because I have a condo rented on the beach then! Yay.
    Good luck! I'm sure you'll reach yours!

    28 pounds off my alleged 'ideal weight', though 155 pounds seems pretty light for a 5'11 guy, especially since if I maintain my current LBM that would put me at 13% body fat. Not that I'd complain about that, of course. Just not sure it's realistic. We shall see.

    I have about 8-10 lb to go, and it has really slowed down for me could be spring/summer before I get there. But very close, I started at 280 about mid-Feb. last year, down to 188 this morning.

    40! Half way there!! I may want to lose 5-10 more when I get there, but I'll know when I do get there!

    Soooo far- another 50lbs...
  • I've lost 54 so far. I still have 28 to go 'til my initial goal, and 38 for my ultimate goal. 48 for my Ultimate-Ultimate Goal that will probably never happen. :p

    My weight is good, the composition of it is not so much. :) Working on melting the fat and building more muscle.

    13 pounds down. One third of the way there. Starting to think I may be able to do this.

    I am 7 lbs from goal weight, however after I reach that goal I may feel I need to lose more, I'm really not satisfied yet.

    I still have another 40 lbs until I reach my UGW, but I've already lost 19 which is really exciting. I have hypothyroidism and PCOS, so weight loss has always been a slow battle for me. I'm happy with any progress in the right direction since I'm in this for the long-haul.

    I currently weigh 180 and would LOVE to weigh 140. In the meantime, I'm aiming for 160. I haven't weighed that since I first started college, before I met my husband.

    110lbs down, 20 to go. Though I think I may only aim for 10 more. More focused on getting my BF% than getting to the "right" scale weight.

    Half way to my initial goal but it's taking longer than I wanted. Will see how it goes after that as I think I have a lot to lose and will do it in stages .

    15(ish!) lost so far - 60 from my main goal, 65-75 from my ultimate goal (125, but I may be a bag of bones at 125 so I'll re-evaluate at 140 and see where I go.)

    Congrats everyone, great work!

    I started in December when my youngest daughter turned 2 months old. I've lost 11 lbs since then and I have roughly 89 more to go until my goal. I am reassessing after that -- so maybe another 10 to 20 lbs depending on my fitness goals then.
