I have about 40 more pounds to lose and i have no doubts with the help of myfittness pal that i will lose it! You all can do it you just have to look at it as a lifestyle change not a "diet!" :)

I started at 245 pounds and now weigh 175! My goal weight is 160 (for now) so I am only 15 pounds away!! can't wait to hit my goal!

    Nicely done.... I need to lose 63 pounds and after the first month I'm down 7 pounds. I already feel SO much better and find that I'm eager to exercise and always anxious to find creative ways to keep my calories in check. MFP has proven an awesome community for ideas, health information and motivation from others like yourself! Keep it up, girl..... You look fantastic!

    I weigh 175 so for my height (5'8) they say I should weight from 140-160 and I've always been fat so to get to the lowest of my height weight "requirements" would be an unbelieveable achievement for me!
