    Hello, I started at 196.1 kg (432 lbs) I’m now at 122 kg (269 lbs). My goal is 69 kgs (152 lbs).

    It’s taken me about 18 months so far and I’m hoping to get to my goal in another 18 months.

    Best of luck with your journey!

    Thanks.

    It is a long road but I’m slowly getting there.

    I feel a lot better and my health is better. That’s what I’m most happy about.

    I'm reasonably confident that I've logged about 300 lb lost. That's counting all the times I lost some of the lb again. And those that I had to lose again. And again. Yes, it's a long process. Patience is required.

    Hello! How is everyone today?

    I’ve just woken up and I’m pretty happy that it’s not Going to be too hot today. Last week has over 40C most of the week and it’s going to get hot again after a Tuesday.

    I weigh in today, I’m procrastinating and haven’t weighed in yet this morning as Im nervous about the outcome.

    Today I’m planning on going for a walk on the beach and then I want to get in the garden for a bit.

    I’m also half way through painting my house and I’m aim on preparing the spare bedroom today. It’s an older place and the walls are pretty cracked and need a bit of prep work.

    I’d like to hit 20,000 steps for the day.

    Happy Sunday! 😀

    You can do it! Today I'm snowed in and the pool is closed so I feel like I'm slacking!

    I’d love to live where it snows. I’m very jealous!

    I’ve just weighed in for the week and I lost 1 kg, I think that’s just over 2.2 lbs. I’m pretty happy with that as I didn’t exercise as much as I wanted due to the heat.

    On wards and upwards...

    Enjoy your weekend. 😀

    Just a word of encouragement! I started at 376 and began to lose 2013. I got to my Goal Weight 184 in March 2018 at age 70!

    Change your Lifestyle and you can change your life.

    All the best to you and those who try.

    I weigh 200+ pounds but my doctor said I need to lose 110 lbs to be in the normal weight range. It's going to be so hard because I'm hardly active and I binge because of depression. Losing weight takes time 😅 I've been overweight my whole life. I hope everyone meets their goal. It's hard to lose weight but being positive is the 🔑

    I'm 5'4, SW of 326lbs. Healthy weight for me starts at about 140ish? So probably about 200lbs to lose realistically. I think knowing it will take years makes it intimidating. I'm going for a slow, healthy loss, complete with diet breaks! I've seen 12 weeks on, 2 off (eat at maintainance) recommended. Helps hormones etc, so has a physiological basis.

    Hope you wouldn't mind me joining in?
