    Yes, that's my short term goal too. It's just so hard to stick with it. I was almost there about a month ago, and now I gained again. I'm probably at 210 now. What are we going to do to help each other?

    I've been at 215 is for a few years. I need motivation to get to my eventual goal of 175. I've never stuck with any calorie counting/exercise plan/weight loss for more than a few days but I have logged for 17 days in a row now. I've also never had a significant weight loss so this will be a new journey. I think I'm going to cry the day I get to 199 because it's been so long. It will be like seeing an old friend. Let's do this!

    I am at 210 right now, currently on a liquid fast in preparation for bariatric surgery in two days. Feel free to add me, My ultimate goal is 125 which would be a normal BMI for my height and age. Thanks so much for reading my comment, blessings.

    Getting below 200 is going to be my biggest milestone, 2nd to my actual goal of 180. I started this journey at 261. Currently at 207. Almost there :-)

    Hi, I was 230 lbs at my highest. Lost 45 lbs using mfp. Then life happened.....several deaths including my husband April of 2014 and my dad being the two most devastating. Now I have gained back most of the lbs I lost except for 13lbs. I got down to a size 16 jeans. Back up to a tight 18. I have recently remarried and am ready to get my weight back in check. I am currently 217 lbs 5'2 . 44 yrs young. NO ENERGY WHATSOEVER! :'( Thx!!

    Was 255 in Sept 2014; crossed below 200 not too long ago. I measure in kg so I didn't even realise I'd made the jump below 200 for a couple of days, but what a smile that realisation brought to my face.

    I feel great, I feel strong, and I'm very proud of the changes I've made... but yes, I do worry about losing resolve or starting to once again buy my own BS excuses.

    Let's all head in the right direction together and stay there with emphasis on staying there for good.

    I would love to join in on this! At my heaviest, I was 237, I got down to 173, became pregant (4 years ago!), hurt my back, etc and the next thing I knew, I was back up to 220.

    I was 155 before I got pregnant 2 years ago. Had some major pregnancy issues and am now sitting at 258. I am down 5lbs this week. Just starting my journey and would love some support and to be supportive.

    I was stuck at 217 forever. I started upping my steps a few weeks back, (arthritic knees) and I have noticed a HUGE energy increase. I average 5000 steps currently. I was very surprised at the energy.

    In the same boat! I've been between 210 and 217 for the longest! my ultimate goal is 160. I find it so hard to update my food and then when i eat bad, i decide to not log it and then i don't log in anything else for the rest of the day. so count me in! i need to be held accountable hahaha lol

    Thanks for sharing! My ultimate goal is 180, but I keep going up and down between 190 and 230. Now that I have an app to help me keep track of my food, I need the accountability factor. This is so right for me!

    I'm in. I haven't seen 200 in 26 years, but I'm down 58 lbs with 13 to go to see 199. Here's hoping July 4th will be Independence Day from the 200's also.

    Oh my word, I did it!!! I have finally crept past the '2' and am now seeing my weight starting with a '1' (barely, but I'll take it)!
