CONGRATULATIONS !
Good to see 52/52 Challenge is still working for you to reach Goal Weight!
FYI for Newbies
I made GW in March 2018, I used Lose 52 Pounds In 52 Weeks Challenge in 2016 & 2017 to get to my GW by losing -37 and -43. (I had lost -110 2013-2015)
The 52/52 MFP Challenge helped me keep focus that a daily, weekly. Monthly challenge makes you realize that if you don’t lose a pound just keep going to get back on the minus side and it will happen. It took me five years but now at GW and on MFP Maintenance Challenge to keep it off.

Not a check in, but a update.
Just returned home after 2 weeks of travel visiting 2 different groups of family and an international work related reunion. So many good days filled with love, friendship, memories, food and drink. I visited with my 88 year old mother and a couple of siblings, grandchildren (so much energy) and old and new friends.
Will be flushing out the body with gallons of water over the next few days. I did manage to get a few runs/walks in but really feel like I need to put some road time in this week and track my food intake carefully. I am craving structure.
I will check in this weekend, assess the damage and carry on. So many people commented on my weight loss or made comments about me being a "tiny" person, I was walking on clouds. I owe the success to MFP and this challenge for the encouragement keeping me focused.2 -

Also it was the 52nd week
Since I took weight loss seriously and made changes and turn my life around. 
I lost total of 55 lbs. In 52 Weeks
This wasn't easy. This didn't come to me naturally. I had to work hard. I struggled. In past I too made many mistakes. And This time I used those mistakes and experiences as tool to Succeed.
After some time many of us lose that "drive" or "fire". It gets difficult to stay motivated , stay focused.
So here, the Real secret is Determination and Passion. It's the Key !!! Without Focus, Motivation, And Determination we can't achieve anything.
(I felt like sharing this. Hope you don't mind )
We Can Achieve What We Put Our Minds to.
Aim High My Friends.

Original start weight: 396.8 lbs / 180 kg (januari 01 2000)
Starting weight for this year: 270.1 lbs / 122 kg (januari 01 2018)

Ultimate goal, also Deadline: 195.0 lbs / 88 kg (Target date = 12-31-2018)
The Background:
Current "Live Style Change" (Not a DIEt): 1650 kcal a day.
Currently three times a week at the Gym, program of 150 minutes Cardio/Strength (mixed exercises 11/13).

@12774 Don't be discouraged by the lack of progress. You had a great loss last year and we are only half way through this year. You will succeed. I have also been at a stand still in my weight loss. I refuse to give up. We can do it.
Take the swimming slow if you need to. I was a non swimmer before the age of 40. My husband was very patient and taught me the basics of floating and keeping my head above water. I lived in Hawaii! I had to be a swimmer! I slowly learned to snorkel and loved being in the water. However I was terrified of jumping in the water (I have fallen off the dock a couple of times). Last summer I practiced jumping in the pool. First with a life jacked. In August 2017 I swam with whale sharks! Jumped off the boat (no jacket) 3 times! I am 59.2 -
@tammierlewis, thanks for the encouragement. My 1st class was held today but we did not go into the deep end , the instructor just checked out our skill level and I got the OK to proceed.I definitely think that I will succeed. Will keep posting.1
