    I'm 12 pounds from my original goal of 125 pounds, weighing in at 137 pounds at the moment. However, if my body keeps changing so much for the better, with the heavy lifting I'm doing, I may rethink that goal for a heavier weight, but just more lean body mass gained from lifting. :)

    I am 5'5"
    Size 6 (US) pants very comfortably.

    I have never weighed so much and wore such a small pant size before, in my life...not that I can remember. In the past, whenever I've worn size 6, I weighed in at somewhere between 120 and 125.
    So, the goal weight isn't something I'm taking very seriously. I'm more focused on continuing to lower my body fat percentage and increasing my lean body mass. :)

    I'm 83 down and about 20-25ish to go. The goal weight I picked when I was 234 lbs was really just a random number so we'll see how I look and feel as I get closer.

    I'm between 6'3" and 6'4" and 210 lbs right now. According to what I can find with a medium frame I should weigh around 185 lbs so I have 25 lbs to go.

    I was just 3 pounds away from my 12 stone goal (was 26 stone 9 pounds) but that was 4 months ago have been maintaining approximately 12 stone 6 pounds since. Whatever I do, it just won't go down.

    I have been on this weight loss journey since January 2012! I have lost 35 lbs and have 8lbs to goal, but am considering lowering my goal 5-10 more lbs. I joined MFP in September 2012 and consider it a lifestyle change!

    I'm about halfway to my goal. I hope to cut that down by half by December. :D 15 more pounds! Slowly, but surely.

    I'm down 40, I still have 4.2 from goal! However I'm considering going lower so maybe I'm 14.2 from being done.

    Wow, resurrected thread. I have about 16 lbs to GW, so far lost 44 lbs. Wondering about people who posted in 2013, where are they now?

    Today it's saying that I've lost 55 of the 272.4 I started with in January. My goal, which is based on discredited bunk, is 160. In one sense I'm halfway there. In a really valid sense I'm obese and need to lose more weight. In another sense I'm just not sure how far from goal I am. Maybe it will feel right at 180. I don't know.

    Just started 15 lbs at least. But depends on fat% after that

    I didn't actually have a goal weight in mind, I just wanted to lose 50% of my starting weight and I have achieved that, so I have been maintaining ever since ... I started in November 2012 weighing 145.6kg - 321lb and in November 2014 I had got down to 71.2kg - 157lb.

    I now bounce between 72kg - 158.7lb & 74kg - 163lb which I am quite happy with.

    I've worked mine out to 48lbs, still a long way to go yet but as long as I stick with what I've been doing I don't see why it's not possible :smile:

    Ugh, I still have 62 pounds to go! It seems impossible right now, but I'm only six weeks in my lifestyle change. Gotta be patient :)
