Given my more recent track record, I'm choosing an extremely optimistic goal, but 220 lb. (100 kg) is such a nice round number, I can't resist!
Max weight (7/10/2020): 330
Anniversary #1 weight (7/10/2021): 243 (lost 87 pounds first year)
Anniversary #2 weight (7/10/2022): 226 (lost 18 pounds second year)
Anniversary #3 weight (7/10/2023): ? (only a week away!)
Ultimate goal weight: < 220
Challenge starting weight (6/26): 239.9

Looks like it's time to change tracks, then
Do you have a plan for what you're going to do differently going forward? Because I bet that 220/100 will look good on you! 2 -

Can I still join? I just found this and weighed myself yesterday so can update if allowed

Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!

Weight in blue makes me blue because it’s a gain. Weight in fuchsia pink makes me feel cheery because it’s a loss. Weight in black means no change.
07/01-197.8-(Trend Weight: 197.4)- Today I am celebrating my son’s 27th birthday and my oldest grandson’s 17th birthday who were born on the same day. There will be food that is out-of-plan so the key will be portion control. A new month always feels so hopeful. I’m starting with a small drop on the scale which feels even better. Let’s make July a banner month, my friends! Good luck to everyone on your individual goals. Happy Canada day to our Canadian Friends!

I did the Spring Challenge and failed miserably. I have some work to do to get back on track. The last couple of years I was involved in several challenges. I decided to focus on one. So this is the challenge I have decided to work on. Wednesday is my regular weigh-in so July 5th will be my start.
YOUR CHALLENGE STARTING WEIGHT FOR THIS CHALLENGE: 189 lbs
YOUR CHALLENGE WEIGHT LOSS GOAL: 176 lbs
I used the calculator that @Walela617 shared. So it calculated lowering my calories by 500 and my slightly active lifestyle, I could lose 13 lbs by October 5th. So I am going for it. My June 28th weight was 193lbs

Zero pounds lost this week, but over the years I've learned not to beat myself up about things like this as body often tends to do what it wants even if I do most things by the letter. Expecting a hormonal gain as the monthly cycle nears. Maybe a whoosh will happen sometime, fingers crossed 😉.4 -

Thank you Jeda for continuing to post these challenges. You always give me hope.
Hi, I’m Lynn from B.C. Canada. Have a terrible track record of never completing these challenges but committing to this one. I'm 76, my Life Goal is to remain fit and active well into my 80's. I love nature walks, kayaking and biking but recent arthritic and other muscle issues have been a challenge. Allowed “life” and other obstacles ( habitual procrastinator ) to interfere with a great event I’d registered for but had to withdraw from. Recognizing that I can’t ‘push through’ like I used to be able to do even 8 years ago has been hard.
My highest wt was 183; two years ago I managed to get down to 156, but then a slow backslide began. April of this year I saw 173.6 ☹ . Currently yo-yoing in the mid 160’s; Wt Loss Goal for this challenge is to lose 10 lbs and return to 156.

Starting the month with a slight gain. I could not be bothered to make the post earlier this week. Because I have slept somewhat disrupted. The puppy is really cute. Bit also very happy at 4 am. Really looking forward to having it morph into a grown up dog that I can go hiking with.
The app for my weight says I lost 5.8 kg last quarter it takes the averages of the weeks when you look at year and quarter. I have decided that that is excellent. I will continue to walk and mind my food. Whilst still allowing for the occasional sosial engagement with food and drinks.

Hi, I’d like to join this challenge please. I’ve had MFP since 2015. I used it to successfully reach my weight loss and fitness goals during the pandemic but since returning to work I’ve gained back 15 of the 20 pounds I had lost plus my fitness is poor.3

Knowing how slow it went these last months, I will try to at least lose 0,5kg or around 1 pound every month. Seriously slooooooow, but that's the way it is when almost at goal. I'd rather lose 3 pounds than stay at the same weight.
June 30: 71,6
July 7: 72 Well, that's not good. I ate a ton of fruit yesterday, so I just hope that it is some result from that. We'll see...

Lost abit of a weight this week. Happy about that. Kids and hubby have started their vacation and in two weeks time it will be my turn. I am looking forward to it. But dreading what it will do to my diet. Hopping that they will go somewhere so that I can go hiking after work everyday.
