I've lost 58 pounds so far. I'm happy with my progress but another 24 to go to meet my target weight.
SW: 236 (16st 12) - a UK size 18/20 and pushing upwards
CW: 178 (12st 10) - a UK size 10/12
TW: 151 (11st 1) - the top of my healthy BMI range will reassess when I get there
April: 227 two weeks into the diet and a UK18/20
August: 190 UK Size 14
Today: 178 UK10 or 12 if it's fitted around the seemingly shrink-resistant boobage (not huge weight loss since Aug but toning up)

5'6" 140 lbs I thought I had newer pictures but I guess not... I've pretty much been stuck around 140 for the winter time... haven't really done much dropping/working on it as much, mostly maintaining ... I guess I need to find someone to take some pictures or buy a full length mirror lol
I want to get to 148!!! You look amazing!0 -
Wow, you girls look smokin' - nice work!0

Thank you!!! I just decreased calories, quit drinking regular soda, started drinking coffee and I do yoga on a daily basis. My waist has always been an easy fix for me, it's my thighs that kill me! I have very thick legs.0 -

Hopefully this will work 212lbs to 165lb and hopefully still moving down!
Great Job!! Good for you..if you don't mind me asking, what did you do for exercise?
Sorry for the really late reply!! For exercise in the first 4-5 months i gradually went from walking around my neighborhood about 2-3 times a week to about 5-6 times a week and also went from 15-20 min to 30min-1.5hours in addition to Jillian Michaels 30 day shred and ripped in 30. I just joined a gym probably a month ago? and i go there about 6-7 times a week and i used to do 30-45 min of cardio and then about an hour of weights and 'floor' exercises like leg lifts and lunges, i have also(just this week) started walking/jogging to the gym(1.8 miles one way so 3.6 total miles) and then doing the weights and 'floor' exercises when i get there. I recently took a break from MFP(a couple of weeks) due to a plateau i hit but i am now back!(starting tomorrow!) So feel free to message me or post on here any further questions/advice i could give you good luck to all on your weight loss journeys!0 -

You are a great example of how walking is a great way to lose weight and can be a wonderful start to an exercise regime! Way to go!0 -

I haven't lost 30-50lbs but I just wanted to post my results to show you don't always need to lose that much weight in order to have success. In 90 days, I've reduced my BF% from 32% to 23% with a 15lb loss going from 181.5lbs to 166.5lbs. Instead of wearing US Size 12/13 pants, I now wear a Size 6....
