    Hi there, I work in kg so the numbers might look random. I am 46, currently at 194 and my short time goal is to be at 187 by end of May. Long term goal is to be around 140. I have started out - again - with about 3kg more a few weeks ago. I have lost weight here before but never got to my goal weight. I am looking forward to reaching it this time, though ;) good luck to all of us!

    Count me in on this. I am have a B'day in May, I saw lot's of us have "May" goals. But my goal in for June 30th - I want to hit 190.

    HSW: 258
    Current SW - 237.8 (15th Jan)
    Challenge SW: 226
    Goals:
    1) getting down - 215 - will want to go clothes shopping (I hope to be down a size)
    2) get below 200, like 190-195 (so on fluctuation day I never see the 2 again)
    3) set new goals. -> another 50 or so to go I guess.

    It's slow and steady right now. I want it to stay that way. I think I can hit my goals by middle of this year - but I am nervous my current progress will slow down.

    I am taking it one day at a time - so thanks for all the inspirational stories, and all the support.

    20/02 - 226.0 lbs (Challenge Start)
    27/02 - 223.8 lbs (Week 1 loss -2.2lbs)
    07/03 - 221.6 lbs (Week 2 loss -2.2lbs)
    13/03 - 221.0 lbs (Week 3 loss - 0.6lbs)
    20/03 - 218.4 lbs (Week 4 loss - 2.6lbs)
    17/04 - 219.2 lbs - Easter holidays has ruined me ... but I am here ... I am back and I want to keep going.
    I will be counting next week as "Week 5" - :blush: this is my way to cope! See you next Tuesday. ... hopefully a pound or 2 down!
    24/04 - 217.6 lbs ("Week 5" loss -0.8lbs) - I hope by next week to be again down a pound or two so I really feel back on track!

    Challenge loss so far (5 weeks) -8.4 lbs

    I'm 57 years old
    I weighed 265 pounds On Jan. 31, 2018
    I am currently at 235
    My long term goal is to reach 190 and be fit again.
    Unfortunately I have been down this road before. I lost the weight before. Unfortunate because I never learned how to maintain my weight and my fitness. I'm learning how to eat well and not "diet" anymore.

    *Original post (in February):
    *Starting weight: 239 (last May)
    *Current weight: 177.5
    *Short term goal: 165 (Beginning of April)
    *Long term goal: ??? (Going to get to bodyfat % of 25-30 and re-evaluate where I'll go from there.)
    *
    *Can't even imagine. I'm almost at my lowest adult weight already.

    I'm baaaaaaack!

    Hope everyone's doing great!

    I'm happy to report that I successfully completed my refeed/maintenance month and am back in the game as planned. I was able to keep my weight reasonably stable and managed to shift some fat into muscle, as I'm down a size again!

    Today I weighed in at 162 (total loss so far 77!), and am looking to torch another 20-30 pounds by July 30th, which will place me around 132-142. I'm crazy excited for it, and gonna rock it!

    Starting weight: 306
    Current weight: 288
    Short term goal: 260
    Long term goal: 220

    The first time I lost weight almost 5 years ago, I officially started at 347. Even though I'd been losing weight before that time, I hadn't gotten on a scale. My best guess is that I was at least 375 -385 pounds. Over the next 15 months, I got as low as 235.

    Over the next few years, I slowly began regaining the weight. I stopped exercising regularly, resumed bad eating habits and switched jobs which led to a lot of stress (and stress eating!)

    I'm starting again for my health, to be there for my family, and to wear all of the great clothes that are sitting in my closet waiting to be worn again.

    Update: Current weight 263

    It's been a slow, steady process but I am making progress. I feel better and am starting to transition into the smaller clothes in my closet. I'm trying to break into the 250's before my birthday in a little over a week. I don't know if I'll make it, but it's within the realm of possibility.

    How is everybody doing on their goals? I've just hit 30 pounds lost in 17 weeks and I'm finding myself starting to get less motivated because I hit my goal of getting under 200. Is everyone here still motivated?!? Would anyone like a new friend to keep tabs on and get daily encouragement from? I log in daily. Friend me!
