    Congrats!

    Is it just me, or is it MUCH easier to lose weight in the summer?

    I started back in May and feel like if I would have waited until now to start, I'd still be on the couch. Between shorter days and colder temps, it takes a lot more motivation to keep it going.

    I find winter harder. I love the outdoors and I have two young kids so I'm constantly busy in warmer weather. Its tougher to get out in winter. Despite living in very northern Northern New England, I hate the cold.

    I agree completely.

    I have 30 pounds to go. Will be the 3rd time in the last 28 years. Hopefully I can stay under this time. Hoping to be there by beginning of May, 2015

    I've been hovering around 200 now for 6+ months. Once or twice I've seen the elusive ONEderland and I can't wait until that's all I see when I step on the scale!

    I've still got a bit to go… but I'm getting closer! About 78 pounds to ONEderland. Considering that I started out closer to 400 than I was to 300… I'll take it for now!

    5.2lbs aways. Hope to get there before the end of the year!!! I'm so psyched! When I started in September I was 240lbs! Looking back now, the pounds have melted off and continue to do that. I love going into my closet and going "shopping" for stuff I either haven't worn ever or in years! Congrats everyone and hope to see you in Onederland soon!!!

    I feel the way you do, I am 190.8, and I cant wait to get out of the 190's. I also will hit my 20lbs by Christmas challenge, when I reach 189. I guess its going to be that way with me, just wanting to be in the next set of 10's. Good luck.

    16lbs and it's so close I can taste it. When I hit onederland, I'll also have offically lost 100lbs. Been very helpful in saying no to junk food, and yes to the gym!!

    Congratulation, what a victory to have lost so much, and committing to the gym more. I need to exercise more, that is something I need to work on.
