Losing 30 pounds by December

Count me in. I'm 5'4", 186. Would love to lose 20 to 25 by December. Menopause is making it extremely difficult!

I was running late this morning. I will post my weight tomorrow.

Weekly weigh in! I was pleasantly surprised this morning when I hopped on the scale to read 177.6. I will however round it up to 178 and claim my 2 pound weight loss! Next week my goal is 176.

Friday weigh in! I was thinking my weight had stalled because I haven't dropped any this really the last few days however the weight I'd been looking at is 176. So I did get my two pound weight loss. Two days ago I was 175.2, but it probably doesn't count because I hadn't been drinking enough water. I fit a few workouts in earlier this week but my 7 week old has had some horrible sleep patterns here lately. I will hopefully fit a few more in the coming week. I need to keep my water up as well. I have also been pretty consistent with calorie counting and my macros are averaging out well too. Next week's goal is 174.

I plan to drink lots of water, reduce my carbs, eat more fruit, veggies and protein. I plan to walk daily and to do Leslie Sansone's Walk Away the Pounds and some Tae Bo- both on Utube

I love her YouTube videos! When I can't go outside and walk, her 3 mile walking videos are a lifesaver!

Looks like I've been losing 1.3 lbs a week and so far I've lost around 11 lbs. Maybe by December I'll lose another 13 lbs if I keep on track, and that will make my total weight loss in December, 25 lbs. That's good for me

i had a stomach bug and maintained my weight.i have to push harder next week if i can lose 20 pound by december.

Lost exactly 1lb this week. Less than I wanted but hope I can lose 2.3lbs this week because my diet bet ends next Saturday!

Sw 145
Cw 134.6
Gw 180

I didn't hit my diet bet goal but I was on point for my diet. Worked out 4x this week.

May I join in? After dropping 50lbs 2 years ago, I've been allowing my weight to slowly creep back up on me. Ugh, calories are such sneeky things!) When I hit 249.8, I decided that I was at my own personal precipice and would endeavor not to ever cross the 250 threshold.
If you're doing the 30lb by end of year challenge, feel free to add me. I'm not good at logging what I eat, however, let us enjoy sharing laughs and support for one another as we face this challenge.

My goal is 30 lbs by December 31
6'2 height
SW 249.8
CW 242.2
GW 219.8 ( this isn't my ultimate goal, just target by the end of year)

I've been stuck in the early 160s for a long time now and can't seem to go under so my weight for this week :
161.4 which is more than I was last week

I think we all get to a weight and get stuck there for a while, at last time was me last time I tried to loose weight. So I gave up, also last time I didn't have friends in MFP and that has help me tremendously!! Plz don't give up! We can ALL do this! Stay positive! I walk like crazy, and I haven't been working out in the mornings, so I've been putting in music while I cook or clean around the house. That way I won't sleep on a workout for he day. Plz don't give up, you have come a long way.

So I started following a ketogenic diet on Saturday and things are going much better. Back in 2008 I lost 80 lbs on the Atkins diet. I guess my body hates carbs. The scale is finally moving in the right direction.

I don't follow ketogenic, but low carb/moderate protein and fat. My body loves to hold on to carbs too!

Hello Everyone!
I'm trying to lose 30 pounds by my 30th birthday in January so far 4 down. Exercising 6 days a week and on that 1200 calories a day! Feel free to add me:)

I had a great day today! I got 13,270 steps in today and day 2 at the gym I joined yesterday. I went shopping for workout clothes and went down a size. Under in calories and I felt great overall! I hope weigh in goes well tomorrow

This week I upped my calories for a few days as I had seemingly stalled out but i made good choices. I didn't hit my two pound mark but I'm at 174.4! I had a 1.6 pound weight loss which is good enough for me! Even had a pumpkin spice latte yesterday too!
