    My SW was around 230ish

    My CW is 158.6

    My GW is 135ish


    You can do it! :flowerforyou:

    All I did was start jogging and exercising. I went with a program C25K that teaches you how to run a 5k. My first one was this past Sunday. And while I didn't jog it all, I did 3/4 of it at a jog but due to a nasty cold I just couldn't breathe.

    How about 5'1" sw:208 have lost 3lbs, gw: 140. So right now I don't know if you call it success. But you seem to be doing GREAT yourself. Makes me feel like I can.

    I'm 5'5" and started higher than that but
    HW 243 (Dec 2010) - Possibly higher, but I didn't weigh myself much...
    SW 233 (Aug 2011)
    Under 200 - 12/8/11
    CW 173
    GW 150 - Might seem high, but last time I weighed this my BF% was like 19 & I wore a size 6, which I think is a great size to be.

    I'm almost there. I try to eat healthy. I do the Curves curcuit and Zumba three days a week. Lately, I've been doing an Ab challenge every morning, as well. I always eat my exercise calories, so it encourages me to MOVE!

    I lost from 203-163 two years ago...then slowly gained it back to 185 and now I'm on track to lose it again. I think 135 will be good for me. I have short legs though so maybe I should go lighter if I can.

    I started out at around 218 at my heaviest. I had lost a few pounds before joining so MFP starting weight was 205. My current weight is 165 and I am 5'4". My goal weight is 135. You can do it. Believe me it seems impossible but it just takes time hang in there :)
