    If I lost 80 pounds I would be at my "ideal" weight, but I'm not positive that is a realistic goal. I'm aiming for 70-75, which puts me back at the weight I was three babies ago, and where I was definitely happy (with health and looks). We'll see what happens when I get there.

    My short-term goal is to lose 10% of my current body weight (22 lbs) by the end of April.

    Longer term, I want to down 40 pounds by the end of July. I would like to be at goal by Jan 2012, but again, trying to be realistic (I have a tendency to plateau and nothing gets me off of it until my body is good and ready to lose again.) Spring 2012 is my target.

    My original goal is 88lbs, which will bring me down to 165. I am already down 15 1/2, so about 72 left! I hope to have met this goal by the end of November this year, which will be just over 1 year since I started MFP.

    After that, I am going to re-*kitten*. In order to get down to "normal" BMI, I'd have to lose another 10lbs. If I go for my ultimate I-can-only-imagine-being-that-thin-again weight, it would be 140, which would bring the grand total to 113lbs.

    Dropping the 15 already has brought me down over 1% BMI and 5.9% of my total original body weight, so I feel like I am off to a really good start! And I am setting small, attainable goals so I don't get discouraged and quit.

    My ultimate goal is 50 pounds. I'll be happy if I'm down 30 pounds by July 1.

    1 million lbs, lol!

    Actually 10 lbs, that will put me at 129 by the age of 29 (Dec 2011) and BMI of 19.5. I like 9's or more so just being under that round number, can you tell ;)

    According to caloriecount.com (my prev forum love but is now to overridden with ads and psychotic forum people - seriously) I'll reach my goal by April 27th so then it’s up to me to maintain that for the rest of the year/life and not eat more b/c of the goal. Getting old over here, can't eat the same way I did when I was 17 ;)

    I am new here, so here goes. I weigh 211 as of this morning and I want to get down to 130. I am doing low carb and since I haven't exercised in too many years to mention, I am starting off easy with my husband's Wii. I have been doing bowling and baseball. I am not coordinated enough to do tennis yet :)

    as of this morning, i weigh 158, i've lost 9 pounds since i started exercising and eating better.
    my goal right now is 130, then i'd have to reassess and decide if i want to weigh less.

    so about 28-33 more pounds to go.

    Long term would be 70 lbs, that would weigh me in at 150lbs. My short term goal for May is 35 lbs, I've lost 5 so far!
