    i've got about 100 to lose. almost had gastric bypass until my doc sat me down and told me he had just had a patient of his die due to complications. my kids were also dead set against it. seems like an unreachable goal BUT nothing is impossible.

    Hi - I too have a bit more to lose.
    SW was 254
    Got down to 210 and then bounced back up to 230 over the holidays and winter even though I was still exercising.
    Plateaued for 2monthes...horrible.
    Changed things up a bit .... and I have gone high protein, low carb, no white sugar or flour and I my scale is moving again.
    YAY
    Friend me if you are serious and are willing to give support and encouragement as well as get it.

    I need to lose 70 pounds,I'm down 35 got 35 more to go. I'll be 40 this year, so figured I need to do something about my wieght now, it's been hard but I'm half way there! Just remember you didn't gain it overnight so you are not going to lose it overnight!!! Slow and steady :) you can do this!!

    Good luck!! Hitting the 80 pound mark was an incredible feeling and a perfect way to start my 40s. Now I'm going to see if I can get to 90 pounds total. Feel free to add me.

    I have at least 70 to lose yet...........Overall, from my highest I've already lost 65 pounds. :-) It is possible. I had a set back and just restarted. But it is POSSIBLE!!!
  • I want to lose 160 in total.... but I'm trying to do this in 4 phases over the next 2 years

    started at 375
    down to 325 by Tax Day (4/15/13)
    down to 299 by the start of the NFL season (9/1/13)
    down to 260 by next tax day (4/15/14)
    goal is ultimately 215 by 9/1/14 - which was my wrestling weight in HS..
