    147lbs

    I've lost weight to get down to 147.25lbs twice in the last 5 years (highest weight 172-175lbs) and gone straight back up twice! This time I have now reached and gone past 147lbs on my way to my ultimate goal of 132lbs :D I'll be honest it was a bit of an anti-climax though! The first two times it took a lot of effort to get near 147lbs so I was all geared up to put in extra effort as I got past 150lbs, then all of a sudden I hit 147lbs without the massive increase in effort I expected!

    170-180. I've been 161 and it was ok, size 8 but I looked a little sickly.

    Started at 238lb on 23rd July 2013. First THAT WEIGHT was 199lb - if I could get there, I knew I could get further.

    Hit that at the end of January, and started on my second goal - 168lb. That's about the weight I was from my early teens (I was a tall child) to my early 20's (didn't grow any taller), until I started to slowly inflate. I called it my 'chubby goal'.

    Hit that this weekend (happy one year anniversary to me!!!) and have now got my sights on my next goal weight - 140lb. That will put me at a normal weight (first time since puberty) with a few pounds to spare.

    My ideal weight is 115-120. I'm short. lol But I have very muscular legs. I have been stuck at 140-145 for too long. Need some kinds of motivation to get back on track.

    Well, I have a couple of "that weight" moments....

    229 = where I was in Spring of 2013
    184 = where I was when I got married 20 years ago
    145-ish = probably haven't been there since high school time frame 34 years ago

    when i started (at 248 lbs) "that weight" was 215. I knew I was going in the right direction. now that i've passed that it's 199. it's been a big struggle to get into onederland the past few months and i am ready to see it already!!!

    My THAT WEIGHT isn't really a weight. I remember in high school I wore a size 16 . I felt so fat when picking out my Sr. Prom dress. NO ONE had a size 16 dress. I had to have one specially altered. Since then its been my dream to just walk into Macy's or Nordstrom and buy something off the rack instead of heading to Walmart to the plus size section.

    I haven't been under 170 in 7 years, so I'm ten pounds away right now and that's my first number: 160. Then I haven't been under 160 in over a decade so 155 is my second number. Then my third and final number is 125, and it's been 25 years since that... and I was in my late teens.

    199 lbs.

    I haven't weighed under 200 since 1994. I've effectively wasted two decades of my life being obese and a slave to food.

    Once I get under 200, I KNOW I can reach my goal of 150. It's getting there that's the clincher.

    Good Luck, everyone! :flowerforyou:

    154. That's when my BMI is "normal." After that, I'll go from there...

    When I started out at 195 lbs. last September, THAT WEIGHT was 120 lbs. It's what I weighed in high school and when we got married. As the months went by and I lost weight, THAT WEIGHT became the next number under 10 lbs. increments; 180, 170, 160, etc. Now that I'm closer to my original THAT WEIGHT goal at 131 lbs., I've realized that number might be too low considering I think I look and feel good now. Well, except for my little Mommy pouch, but I'm working on that. ;) So now my current THAT WEIGHT is under 130 lbs. with an ultimate THAT WEIGHT of 125 lbs. to give me some wiggle room when I go into maintenance.

    BTW, I'm 5' 5", large-boned and age 52, so 130 would put me right at the lower end of 'ideal' according to all the charts.

    130/132 but it depends on how I look when I "finally" get there...

    112. That weight, where I can still have a bustline and have a waistline at the same time!

    somewhere in the 119 - 111 range...something about being in the 100-"teens" is really appealing to me. 107 is when i'll be underweight according to my BMI so even though i know 111 is a low number, it would still be healthy. but even seeing 120 will be great for me. i've never seen that on a scale in my teen or adult life (i'm almost 24). i've got 7 lbs to go to get there!

    Currently 130 but I'd really like to get back down to 110, just started but everything is going well now. I'll be there in about 4-5 months if I keep it up.

    I was 192 when I got married almost 25 yrs ago and haven't been under 200 since. That will be the real biggie for me.

    We must be the same height, because that's when my BMI will be "normal" as well. :smile:

    Mine was 160 because I was officially 5 pounds lighter than my drivers license has said since I got it ( when I was 16). Now I'm 153 and every time I look at my license which still says 165 I honestly can not get rid of that smile.

    I think my next THAT weight will be 147 because the last time I weighed that I was in 7th grade.

    I think for me this time around it will be 220 then 185. The 185 because the last time i lost weight i could never get to that number, i got really close though 188! but now i gained it all back so now i start over again. My ultimate goal will be about 160 though.

    Currently THAT weight is 155. I haven't been there in about 25 years. I will reset that when I reach it. It is about 5 lbs away. :smile: :smile: I've had that as a goal from the beginning even though I knew it would not be my final goal since it is in the BMI overweight range for my height, I just needed an initial goal that I knew was reachable. It is sooooo close that I'm looking at my next goal now and that is out of the overweight catagory...
