under 200 by June 2015

You can do this!! I'm very excited for you, it'll be rough at times but the end result is worth it.. Your health is the most important benefactor in all of this and I'm glad you've made great progress in your journey to a better healthier you!

Same here! I have more to go but I plan to be under 200 very soon! every lb is a mini celebration! Feel free to add me! Seeing everyone working so hard motivates me

I started at 223 around the beginning of Feb/ end of Jan. ..Down to 202 last week..Great Job EVERYONE!!! Weight has always been my biggest issue and as I have gotten older harder to loose..I love My Fitnesspal..Good luck on the goal!! I would love to be a part of the support team!!

At my highest weight I was 280lbs, went down to. 150 but of course over two years of bad habits again .. Weighing myself after Christmas I was 205lbs opened my eyes once again..since then I've lost 20lbs and I'm back to onederland! You can do it!! Anyone feel free to add me any support would be great!!

Got the same goal girl!!! At least by the end of July or so....wish you nothing but the best of luck!!

I'll be rooting for you! I still have a long way to go before I'm under 200, definitely won't happen by June. October is my mark.

I'm totally in do this. I started at 400+ and am now at 225. I got down to 199 and shot back up after I lost my best friend. Trying to get back down again because I know my friend would be so mad if she thought she caused me to gain weight.

Don't mean to be a Debbie Downer, I'm in for this challenge.

So sorry for your loss. Best friends are such an important gift in this life. But, you are so right, your friend who loves you, wants what is best for you and knows you will succeed.

This is so try, thank you for reminding me.

Hi everyone! Count me in, although I'm not sure I will make it by June -- I will sure try!! You all are very motivating and inspiring. Good luck to everyone on their journeys. I started at 355.6 and am currently 216.4. I am hoping to be in Onederland soon.

[quote="Robertus;32023096"[/quote]You can definitely do this. I only had one major foot surgery, after which I gained 25 lbs, but eventually figured out a way to do this. When I couldn't run any more, I went back to swimming as my primary exercise. Where there's a will, there's a way. You can definitely do this.

Thanks Robertus. I have had 4 big toe surgeries in 2 years and my feet are great now, had toe fusion for arthritis. Just was a long time out of my good habits!!! I am hopeful now that spring is here I can get back into my habits. Juicing got me started last time so getting out the ole juicer this week.

i also have that kind of goal. so far i am down 17 pounds. since i started.

I was 198lbs when I started this. I'm 130lbs now. Feel free to add me

I'm 222 hoping to enter onederland by June as well. Every time I get close I slack off, not this time. I'm fed up so I just started a boot camp challenge and I pray it jump starts me

Yeah, cerals are tough. They seem to be fairly calorie dense (at least the ones I like) and not that filling so I end up eating a lot. You can't really eliminate it from the house since your kids eat it. Sounds like you may just need to give it up 'cold turkey', which may be very hard at first, but it does get easier as time goes by, fairly quickly actually. That's what I did. Smaller portions were just not satisfying enough for me. I find that if I never have that first piece of Halloween or Easter candy, after a day or two, it is easier and easier to avoid altogether. After about a week, I'm so proud of myself, it isn't even difficult. But if I have one piece, pretty soon I'm eating all the kids candy at night when they're asleep.
