I've been at this for 19 weeks, and have lost 34 pounds (so about a pound and a half per week, though I am slowing down now as I get closer to my goal). I started around 161 and am 127 now. I think my goal is 110 ish. That being said, I may find I am happy heavier than that. I kind of just randomly picked the number based on my height and frame. I am 5'2. I eat what I want, but within my calorie goal, and weigh most everything.

    You look great! I'm a shorty too (5'1'') so your pics are very inspiring. My goal weight is about 110 too.

    I think I need to weigh my food since portion control is what I struggle with. What scale do you use?

    This is the one I use, nothing special about it, I just chose an inexpensive one from Amazon:

    Keep up the good work! Could I ask if you were exercising and what was your calorie goal? Were you eating back your exercise calories? Thank you so much!
