    I've been at it seriously for about 14 months (even though I signed up in 2011 or somethiing) and have lost the 76 pounds shown in my ticker in that time. I am unsure how to answer "how long have you kept it off" since I'm not at my goal yet.

    I lost the weight I wanted to lose in about 5 weeks. I kept losing; however, and now i'm hoping to add about 10-12 pounds of muscle. I've been on mfp for 300+ days, but my diet isn't as strict anymore.

    Giggity to the thread title :wink:

    I've lost 53 lbs. Started on June 20th 2013. Finished weight loss in February of this year. Immediately transitioned to bulking. Have been holding steady around the same 2-3 lbs though for 4 months. Planning bulking and cutting cycles to forever improve in lifting for forevers! Finally have a passion that keeps me focused :D

    I started Jan. 2013. By August I had lost 39lbs and hit my goal. I maintained for several months but gained 6lbs over the winter by being very sedentary and lazy tracking. Back here to lose those last pesky 4lbs till maintenance again.

    I started dieting February 12 of this year, and slowly decreased my calorie intake over time, then added in some exercise. I was 305 back in February, and now I am about 267ish. I'm still looking to drop another 100 lbs or so, and I hope I can get it off and keep it off!

    Agreed!
    I started at 236 in Jan 2014; I am currently 206 with a goal of getting below 150. It looks like it is going to take me a bit longer than some ;).

    I started in Dec 2012, lost the first 40 in about 6 mos and it's taken a year to lose the second 40. I'm easing into maintenance right now, hopefully forever :)
