    Going to Universal Studios for my birthday at the end of May and I'd like to be under 200 lbs by then. Only a little over 5 lbs to go, but been struggling lately.

    Then I'd like to reach "normal" weight (179) by mid-September when I'm going to meet up with some online friends, some of whom have met me before and some who haven't.

    My wedding in Aruba. August 4, 2017. Want to not only look good in my wedding dress, but be able to wear a CUTE bathing suit while there instead of a old lady 1920s suit covering every inch it can! :wink:

    May 13, my birthday and the Spa Girl Triathlon. It's not about being at a specific weight, although I want to keep losing. My goal is about performing well, which right now just means "finishing," and hopefully not in last place.

    Vacation in 25 days! We are heading to florida, so i'll be spending lots of time in a swimsuit and summer clothes. I've been working out and eating healthy the past few months, and I'm ecstatic to feel comfortable in a bikini!

    My typical 10 Lbs of winter weight needs to go so that I can be at a better riding weight...I may drop 15. Also, summer pool parties and bbqs.

    My 19 year old son needs another kidney transplant so I'm losing weight so I can donate my kidney.

    This trumps any dreams I have ever held of just looking good in a photograph! I hope you and your son both achieve your dreams! xx

    Thank you! 26 more or less pounds to go!

    My 35th bday is July 6th...mid thirties! Yikes! I'd love to finally be at least close to goal by then. I'm 30-40lbs away from ultimate goal weight (never been that weight as an adult!)

    My most important date is my wedding in January and reaching goal weight earlier than that before my first dress fitting! Also, my the quickest upcoming, like a lot of people have said, is summer! I want to feel comfortable in a swim suit this year for the first time since probably middle school!

    I don't usually like dates for results, it puts a lot of pressure on weight loss that is not linear. That being said, I'm still hoping to drop .8 before next week when I go for surgery, it would be a solid 20 from when I got back on track after a few months of business trips and depression. It's my goal, not the Dr's, they surprisingly did not mention my weight gain (this is a specialist not my regular Dr.)

    Meeting my online-partner for the first time in an anticipated five years sometime hopefully in October, I'd like to lose at least 50lbs.--or be just under 200lbs.. that would make me very happy! <3

    Life...being healthy, not being fat. That said, I reached my goal several months ago and my reward is a trip to Maui that just happened to coincide with my weight loss and a climbing trip in August. I did this because I had to, not because of some random event that will come and go whether a goal is reached or not.
