When do you want to reach goal weight?

edited February 25 in Social Groups
I have chosen October 25th (or thereabouts) because it is the birthday of my departed first girlfriend. Of all of the girlfriends I've had she never had problems with me losing weight. So I figure, I can reach goal weight around that time in her memory.

    I am in no rush to loose this weight which is probably why it sticks around. I will pick September 1st as my target.

    July 22nd ideally but I don't think it's possible!

    I would like to lose at least 5 more by August 15th.

    Ideally, I would like a sixpack of July 4th, but that may be a stretch ahahaha

    August 1st, my mum's birthday. We're having a family get together/pool party. Gotta look my best :) so I'd like to be down about 6lbs. I'd say it's attainable

    Want to lose 13 pounds total. Family reunion is in 1 month. So hoping for 5 pounds by then. Other than that no real goal just want to reach maintenance ASAP.

    I would love to be at goal at my one year anniversary of starting a new, healthier life. That's mid August. Failing that by Aussie summer would be awesome! :D

    This weekend.
    No, realistically...I'd love to lose 10 by mid-August. I'm going on a short cruise with some friends.

    Why is it that when we're so close the motivation is just not there??
  • I am looking to lose the last 10-15 by the beginning of August, which I know would be highly unlikely and unattainable... So I guess September or even October. Hey, if I can keep it off afterwards it's all worth it, right? Unfortunately I am severely lacking in the motivation department...

    This weekend works for me too:wink:

    For me I think my lack of motivation is because I feel good and, with the help of some shapewear, I look good too. But I def would prefer to be 10 pounds lighter.

    All I want to do is lose 5 lousy pounds by July 17th..beach vacation. I used drop weight like water, but now that I'm close to 50 it's turned into such a challenge.

    Hopefully I'll kick the last of the freshman 10 by the end of July for my family reunion (4 pounds! so close, but so difficult) and then lose another five to reach my final (for now) GW of 120 by Thanksgiving (October... 13th, I think?). I've started doing heavy lifting so depending on how I look at 120 I'll either try to lose another five or start a bulk, but that seems like a long way off right now.

    I'm the same. At 5'2 and 130 lbs I'm fairly healthy and don't look bad, but I'm a bit out of shape and flabby. But it's so easy to say "well, good enough", especially when I really want dessert or to sleep in instead of doing my workout.

    My goal is by the end of summer/August... allow for enjoying a few summer events, but being their before the fall kicks off. :)

    I would like to lose the 15lbs by the time I go back to college in September :)

    I would like to lose 13 lbs before my birthday if possible, that is late September. I think it is a couple of pounds under my ideal weight but I like it a little under so that by maintenance, it is ok to gain a little. I know I cannot always maintain the weight after I reach my goal. I may be a little under or over and it's easier to gain.

    I've gotten lazy about setting a definite date, so all of your goals are inspiring me!

    I'm taking it really slow because I'm training for my first marathon in early October. I'd like to lose another 7-8 pounds by then if possible (have lost 2-3 in the past 4-6 weeks), but will take whatever I can get.

    My ultimate goal is about 17-18 pounds. I'm going on a big trip next spring, so maybe by then? It's so tempting to just go extreme for a month or two, but I know it's not the right way to do it :sad: And I couldn't keep up my running if I did, so I'd be really screwed come October!

    I'm hoping to reach my goal weight of 130 by August 22, which is when my summer work ends and I go home for a visit for a bit :) Not sure this is totally achievable, but I'm going to try!

    125 is my goal! I am going to Cayman Islands end of July. I want to achieve my goal by then for our upcoming trip.

    Congrats on your upcoming wedding!

    October 20. We have a trip to the USA planned, and if I'm not close to goal, the portion sizes and availability of food will be overwhelming, and probably throw me off again for months!

    6 weeks ago? I don't have a goal in mind right now. It'll come off eventually.

    I planned to reach my goal in september and seeing my process I think it ' ll be a breeze. :) I'm currently 63 kg, I was 78 kg a year and a half ago, and I want to be 60 kg in september.

    I want to be at 120 by the beginning of September. Or at least be really close to it. I'm flexible though. I'm happy with my progress and as long as I keep trying, I'm not going to rush it :)

    I am 142 and I would like to be 130 by my 40th birthday in October. However I would like to lose 6 lbs in one month.

    By the end of August would be nice because I'm going on a trip and I guess be count as a reward to myself. ^^

    114.8lbs now...hoping to be 105lbs by 28th July when I go on holiday.

    I was hoping to hit my goal by 18th July, which is my Sisters Hen Party. However, I only have 3lbs left to lose (dropped 4lbs in the space of 6 weeks so far) and as I haven't seen a change on the scale in a couple of weeks now I'm figuring things seem to have slowed down significantly. So, I'm not really sure if it'll be attainable, but either way I feel and look significantly better than I did 6 weeks ago and things can only improve further between now and then! :)
