    I joined in Jan 13 and lost the 37.5lb I set out to lose by May. Since May I've lost a further 13.9lb. So in total I've lost 51lb since Jan.

    By my ticker ALONE since Feb 17 2013 @ 197 lbs (started logging exercise) and Feb 21 2013 (logging food). However, I lost approximately 10 lbs from Dec/Jan since I got a really bad case of the flu with severe bronchitis. So INCLUDING when I was sick and a few pounds here and there, from about last summer, (didn't have an accurate digital scale so I'm NOT really sure what I weighted PRIOR to MFP, I've lost approx 40 - 43 lbs.

    I started tracking here Sept. '12, I recorded my first loss on 9/9/12 so it's taken me roughly 11 months to lose 70 lbs.

    it took me 6 months to lose 21 kilos, through portioning and cutting majority of the fat out of my diet and walking about an hour 4x a week. This was 5 years ago, since then, joined mfp, worked my *kitten* off and seen no result, gave up and it only took 1 year to put 19 of it back on! TAKE 2 ACTION!

    It's hard to say when I actually started. I joined the gym about a year ago, started taking it semi-seriously about 7 months ago, started taking it very seriously about 5 months ago. 40 pounds lost so far. Probably would be more by now had I stuck with my usual diet and exercise regimen on summer vacations, but I didn't, so that slowed my progress a bit (but no regrets about it!).

    A year and counting, plateaued pretty hard at the moment but I'm not consistently exercising anymore. Started weight training and core strengthening and I go on a couple of bike rides a week and although i'm not losing any weight on the scales, I can see myself slimming down further :)

    63 lbs in 7 months (through a low calorie diet, didn't know it was that until I started logging calories through another app), was supposed to maintain already but decided to lose a bit more but through eating and exercise this time. Lost 4 more lbs since June. So 67lbs in 9 months!

    A bit over a year and a half to lose 123#; I started Jan 9, 2012 at 313#. It's a pain to lose now that I've changed my deficit goal to 250 cals/day. I keep yo-yoing - lose 3# first week of the month, spend next 3 weeks gaining/losing that same 3#.
