My goal is to have more energy and loose 40lbs.

I've got three months to lose 10kg. I've had two knee reconstructions (on the same knee) in three years. I've piled on 17 kg since I tore my ACL in May 2013 and my extra weight is hampering my recovery (and then I eat to console myself). I used to play sport and lift weights religiously but now I'm so fat and unfit I get puffed walking short distances. I'm determined to stop making excuses and start controlling my weight instead of my weight controlling me!!

Hello everyone! I'm really not new to the weight loss scene, or My Fitness Pal. I have a lot of weight to loose though. I'm having some health issues, although not serious yet. Last March 2016 I went to the gastroenterologist, because I was vomiting and getting stomach and bowel cramps. Many tests later I have IBS and Barrett's Esophagus. I'm taking medication, daily, which helps, but need to lose weight and eat small meals. Since last year I've lost 27 pounds. I have a doctor's appointment this Friday, and haven't lost anything since Fall. I've been up and down, but just kind of maintaining that 27 lb loss. I'm only 5' 1" tall and still weigh 181.8 this morning. I should only weigh about 105 lbs, but will probably not get to this goal. I would like to see 120 lbs though. I hope to be down to 140 - 150 lbs by the end of 2017. I think that's realistic. Glad that this group is here, and hope you all have success in 2017 too!

PS: I have 76.8 lbs to lose, but hope to lose at least 40 this year!

My goal is to get down to 115 by the end of the summer and also get into a daily exercise routine. That's about 20 lbs more but nothing drastic. (I am only 5"1.5") Would like to hike the entire White Mountains Presidential Trail. Last year I did half of it. Also, would like to do some group bike rides.

Love the idea of this group!!

My plan for the year is to lose 60 pounds!

I am an empty nester and my husband and I are enjoying finding ourselves as a couple again. I would just like to do it in a body that has a little more energy and not so weighed down!!

I've been dealing with an awful plateau for awhile now so my goal for this year is less about the scale and more about my measurements. I'm going to take them tomorrow and hope with my diet and increased exercise I'll start to feel better despite the scale not moving....

Hey!
My goal is to lose a total of 16 lbs by the end of May. I started off at 174 in the beginning of January, and I'm at 165 right now. My aim is to have abs unflexed by the end the of this. I hope everyone has keeping up with their goals, because yall got this!

Hi all! I'm Sarah. I'm 27. I've got 22lbs of baby weight to lose (2 years later). Hopefully by summer time. Feel free to add me xxx

I'm not exactly new to MFP. Lost 30 lbs last year, gained back 10. So my goal is to get the other 20 off. Once that goal is reached I will set another!

My 2017 goal is to get healthy. My ultimate goal weight is between 125 and 135, but I'm not sure if I'll ever get there.

I've struggled with my weight for a long time. In college I was fit and healthy and very active. I weighed 115 if I was lucky. Fast forward to the highest weight years later, after having my son I was 206. Considering I'm only 5'1", I was pretty big. That was 2013. Over the past few years I've sort of tried to lose it, but never really committed. I'm committed now. My current weight is 188 and I have my eyes set on 150 for the time being. That's what my weight was at my wedding in 2012.

I'm hypothyroid so that's a struggle too. My worst time of day is when I get out of work I like to watch TV and snack. I need to break that habit! I also like to mindlessly snack at night when I watch TV.
