Is anyone else trying to lose weight for an event but hoping to keep it off? Or are you trying to lose weight in general for a better life style?

    Trying to lose weight for my son's graduation. Yes I want to lose weight for the rest of my life, but presently this motivation is helping me accomplish my goals.

    To have a child(ren), so of course; I won't keep all of it off but when I am done, I'll proceed to get rid of the weight; for life!

    I have been over weight my whole life. I quit smoking 2 years ago and I decided I'm tired of being uncomfortable all the time. So I started making better choices and here I am a month later and 26 pounds down. So for me it is a life goal. I do use temporary functions as opportunities to push myself. Good luck to you!

    I'm in it for the long haul. If you want to lose weight quick for an event, I know how to do it but it won't last.
