I looked around the site and couldn't find a group specifically wanting to lose 35-40 lbs. My initial loss in January was set at 50-55 lbs., I have lost 17 so far.

If so, do any of you have a goal date set? Just curious.. I'm aiming for June.. but that may be pushing it a bit :smile:

    Hi

    I joined about three weeks ago with 40lbs to lose and now I have 37lbs to lose I would like to lose as much of it as possible by July so I guess we have roughly the same timescales although i am making a lifestyle change!

    Good luck with your journey and you can add me if you wish!

    I want to loose 35-40lbs by June also. we are going on a mini vacation. I know it is pretty unlikely but I would liek to loose as much as I can by then at least. Maybe if we find good support buddies to do it with, it will help : )

    My goal is to lose 90lbs. But since that seems to be an enourmous number, I have set mni goals that are on the way down. So far I am losing about 2lbs a week. I track my eating and that has helped me make better choice. No one really has will power, we only have the power to choose. I do not have an end date..for my struggle will never end entirely. I just reach 14pounds and one more pound and I will accomplsh my first giant step.

    I started a few days ago, I want to lose about 2 pounds per week right through the summer. I started at 224, and want to get down to be 160-165. So that's about 32 weeks, and just over 50 pounds. But 35 pounds by the end of June sounds like it's about right with my schedule, I'm in!

    I'm looking to lose around that, but I am really not sure. I've 18.5lbs off so far (just over a month) and I'm aiming to have another 2 stone off before july and see where I go from there... I am aiming for a size 14 uk size at the minute, the smallest ive been was pre-pregnancy and that was a 10-12, and if i was any thinner i would have looked ill. once i hit a size 14, ill see what i think, and maybe push for the 12!!

    I'm in this group also, but WOW I've not thought about setting a date as sometimes everything fluctuates - I've been on my current weight for 3 weeks now despite working out etc.

    But June sounds awesome! I'll try to aim for that.

    I want to lose 35-40 by June too. That would be phenomenal! Hubby and I are going on a mini vacation for our 1st anniversary. :) I have been looking at clothes/swimsuits online most evenings to keep myself motivated.

    I'm also hoping to lose 35-40lbs by June in time for my birthday, although I feel that may be a bit ambitious for me as I only average a loss of 1.5lbs - 2lbs a week.
    I started off in January at 185lbs and now down to 171, although had a very bad February and gained two pounds, so aiming for somewhere between 130-140lbs for an overall GW.

    I have 33pds to go. Count me in. Although I don't really have a time line. Just trying to lose 1-2pds a week or try to lose most if not all by end of summer. It's hard to go to the gym during winter time and at night. According to BMI I am obese. I'm trying to be within my normal BMI. So, here goes.....

    My goal is to lose 40 lbs by the end of summer, sooner of course would be wonderful but I don't think that's very realistic. I'm on day 3 of the 30 day shred - level one, while I can't see any changes I can definitely feel the program working. I plan on doing it for 60 days instead of 30. once the changes start I'll be happy to share them.
    Good luck everyone, we can do this! :)

    I originally started at wanting to lose 52 pounds, lost 14 so far, so 38 more pounds to go! Obviously I'd love to look as great as possible whenever but I'd love to lose 30 more by beginning of September in time for a huge music festival. Feel free to add me!

    Im not Breastfeeding, but have an almost 4 month old. I started the 30 day shred, but it lost my interest quickly. I just started Jillian's kickboxing fast fix and love it! I also do my elliptical or go for a walk most days too. Feel free to add me!
