    Y'all are so inspiring!!
    A little over 30 since the beginning of the year (so almost 5 months.) I got a fitbit zip to push me to get my 10K every day (that's currently my only exercise amist a 50-hour-a-week desk job). I log each and every single bite of something I take. Every bit.

    29 kg (64 lbs) in one year and 8 months.

    My weight loss was definetly slower than most people (I've done it with about 1700-1800 calories a day), but I have build a lifestyle that suits me and I can continue like this for all my life without feeling deprived or hungry.

    I usually put on a few pounds at the end of the year and into the beginning of the next year (~20lbs), takes me about 3 months to get back to my preferred weight. This seems a bit fast, but a good 5-10 pounds comes off in the first few days from water. I'm a sponge!

    In three days it will be a year since I've lost 68lbs. I lost 28.8 of that since February 19th, when I really started focusing and got myself in the gym.

    Most everything I've ever read says to shoot for 1-2 pounds a week at the most for losing weight. I've lost more and I've lost less, so I would presume they mean on average.

    I have lost 65-70 lbs, and it has taken me 10-11 months to do so. I have about this much more, and hope to have it done by my 2 year mark. We shall see! If I don't, no big deal, I will continue to work on it.

    From highest to lowest took about 18 months and I lost 85lb. I'm back on the bandwagon after gaining 40 back and I'm down 11 in the last month, though I'm expecting it to slow down next month. Hoping to be back in the maintenance saddle (as it were) by September/October, but that's just an ambitious goal.

    I've lost 9 pounds so far and it's been about 2 months. My weight loss journey is very slow considering I don't have much to lose and I'm already a very active person in general.
