Height: 5'4
SW: 220
CW: 176
GW: 143 (to reach the normal bmi) might consider lowering it down when I reach this goal
Tip: Don't get discouraged when the scale's not going down. First, evaluate WHY it isn't moving down. Then, do something to change it. Weight loss is never perfect. The whole point is not giving up until you reach your desired weight and maintain it afterwards. And always remember, a small progress is still a progress.0 -

Gw: 145-150
I tell myself that I am the only one who can change myself. If I want to look and feel better it is up to me and no one else. I eat smaller portions ( I tend to over eat), choose fruit or veggies over candy/ unhealthy foods. Become more active and try to not obsessed with the scale number but to like how I feel.0 -

GW: I dont know? When I was 16 I lied on my drivers license stats... said I was 140 and I was nervous the police would be able to tell. It made me a very good driver. Hindsight I was probably pretty close to that weight, but because I was 5 inches taller than all of my girlfriends... I thought I was living a 600 pound life.
Ultimate goal: To feel really great in my body. Like, really great.0 -

Be honest in your logging and don't beat yourself up if you have a bad day. Own it and move on.0 -

SW: 487 it's a estimate. never got exact starting weight since the scale at the doctor's office only went up to 350 and he needed to use special counter weights
CW: 300
GW: 200-220
The scale lies. I will go through periods of time where according to the scale, I've lost nothing. It's important to realize that it's not the ONLY way to measure progress. I also track my fitness levels, how much more I can lift weight wise compared to 3 months ago, clothes feel looser, being able to get into smaller sizes, inches lost.0 -

Hi there, I joined on 02/03/15
Height: 5'3
SW:132 lb
CW:126 lb
GW: 115 lb - 112lb plus toned up
I have a mixture of methods:
First is the 5:2 fast diet. 500cals on fast days but 1200 cals on non fast days sometimes I allow 2000 on non fast days if I have something planned.
I also have a nutribullet so I have one smoothie everyday for breakfast gives me a great start to the day.
My other device is running, so pair healthy eating with running everyday. I use run keeper, which I love. They have great training plans to use. I also do double runs on my fast days ( one morning and one evening run) which means I can go over the 500cal restriction as long as the running counter acts any over eating back to a net 500 cals.
I find this combination works for me and is sustainable rather then stricting to one impossible diet.
I do also you my net diary pro app as well as this one. I like the reports it produces. It means entering on two apps but worth it for me.
I am also about to buy a fitbit charge hr to try and add another dimension to my logging.

I've only been at this for 2 weeks and am very happy how it's starting. I was trying to lose just a pound a week but it looks like that shouldn't be a problem. I have no problem meeting my 500 calorie deficit and am usually quite a bit below. Yesterday, for instance, I was 1500 below. Logging my intake really helped me see which foods were doing the most amount of damage.
Two things really helped me. When I have a meal, I load up on the veggies before anything else. For snacks I eat fruit first.
Second, I only allow myself a beer if I've walked my 10k steps for the day.
I haven't eliminated any foods, just cut back on portions and really stepped up the fruit and veggies
That's not actually a good thing and can cause damage to your body in the long run. You should be aiming to hit your goal calories, if not daily the weekly.0 -
I'm 5ft2.2 (the .2 is SO important ha ha)
Started at a hefty 182lbs (13st) and am currently 162 (11st8)
My goal is 147. I'm built like a sumo wrestler so wouldn't want to go any lower as I would look like a lollipop head.

Yes... Eat food. Real food not shakes and pre packaged poop. That's not a way to live your life healthily.0 -

5ft 8"
started at 320
currently 217.7
target 196
My target is still officially overweight but I would be happy to just get under the 200 lb mark. Also, having been so overweight for so long, my skin isn't very elastic and if I get too slim I will just be too wrinkly all over!
My tip - not sure really but I have found obsessive logging to be very helpful and the thought that if I don't do something different then I will just stay fat and miserable!0 -

48 years old
Height: 5'2"
Starting weight: 130 lbs
Current weight: 107 lbs
Goal: Started out thinking I needed to be on a "diet" to lose the pounds, only to realize over time (been here just over a year now) that it was more about making a permanent lifestyle change that's enjoyable & sustainable. Healthy eating habits (with the occasional treats) + regular exercise slowly (yes, slowly BUT surely) worked their magic0 -
SW: 189 lbs
CW: 125 lbs
GW: 115 lbs

Really want to just get toned now
At 5'8 125lbs is plenty light enough. You're not going to "get toned" unless you make sure you are prioritizing muscle maintenance (proper protein intake, ideally heavy lifting if not a requirement) and have a slower deficit. Would be better to eat at maintenance and lift weights for a handful of months then try your hand at a small bulk, then once you're back up to maybe 135, go on a small cut to focus on fat loss.
You can't know if she is light enough. Some girls just look better when they are slim. My body doesn't store fat nicely-i always have slim waist and legs and all the excess goes to hips and inner thighs. And yes, i do lift and fuel my body with protein, its just genetics are different. I'm 5'8" and my goal is 110.
When i weigh 110-115 lbs, a bunch of people compliment me on my body and ask me if i'm a model, even fitness instructor.
Let's all just support each others goals0 -

GW: 168 for now!
Height: 5'8"
I know my goal weight is still heavier than it should be for my height, but it's been so long since I've been at that weight that I want to see how it looks and feels before aiming for 11 stone. It also helps me to split up my goals into manageable chunks!0 -
current weight is 80kg (176lb), goal is 90kg (198lb) at 10% body fat, height is 185cm (6')0
