For MY journey, I like to see pounds lost right now. Maybe it will change when I get closer to my goal weight. :-)0

That depends. Which of these sounds more motivational to you: 10 lbs lost or 110 lbs to go?
Me, I'd go with the 10 lbs lost.0 -
I go with how much I've lost, I prefer to look at it as how skinny I've become rather than how fat I still am :-)0

10lbs lost definitely!0
-
I agree, definitely 10lbs lost. It shows you what you've already achieved and by sticking to what you know, you can lose 10lbs more!0
-
It depends. If you've already lost 70 out of 80 lbs, then 10 lbs to go sounds a heck of a lot better!0

I'd way rather see 10lbs lost if that meant that it was all I had left to lose!0
-
I like to know how many I have to go. 50+ lost here, and it means nothing to lots of people, but to me 50 to go means I am halfway to goal and I'm more excited than anything.
I remember when it was 110 to go... now it's only 50 ish!0 -
i prefer pounds loss all the way, I need to know how far I've come, not how much I have to go.0
-
I like to see 63 to go
Just because I am going to get down to 140 and I like to see that number go down.0 -
10 lbs to go!!
I like my 147 lost ......but with only 10lbs left to lose that is what inspires me now.0 -
I prefer to see what I've lost, it reminds me where I was and how far I've come as well as reminding me if I've lost this much I can definitely keep losing.0

Thank you for the insight, everybody. Personally, I prefer seeing how many lbs left to go. It makes me feel like I'm counting down the days until Christmas.0
