I'm currently on month 8 and I've list 53 pounds as of this morning! The scale actually fell below 200 this morning and I couldn't believe it! I've been eating better, drinking 12-18 glasses of water a day and doing Zumba and other cardio at least 4 days a week! You can do it too!!!0

You can do this! I lost 63 pounds in 9 months, but I have gained a lot of muscle over that time period too since I work out every day, three days a week doing strength training with a trainer, and hard cardio (HR b/w 150-160 - about 85% of my max) for an hour every other day. My body fat has gone from 46% to 29% - a HUGE difference in body composition (still working on that - want to get down to 23%)- so focus on the results, not the scale and DO lift weights!
Make time - it only takes 1 hour a day and it will be the best use of an hour you will ever spend! and EAT MORE not LESS! especially on hard workout days.
Best of luck in reaching your goals.0 -

Thanks guys! I love hearing about others' losses to keep me motivated; the Success Stories is by far my most frequently viewed forum. Keep the stats coming.
I don't necessarily plan to be at my goal by my birthday as that would be about 10lbs a month, but I do hope to do the best I possibly can.0 -

In 9 months I have lost 78 lbs! Keep it up!!! You'll do GREAT!0

I lost 30lbs in 12 months but that's really low for people I think. I half assed it and slacked off a lot. Now, I'm looking to lose about 40lbs in 5-6months. It's really do-able from what I've read and seen. Just have to eat right, foods low in carbs and fat and high in protein.0

This is week 21 for me. I'll have to let you know when I get to 9 months!
Feb 9, 2012. 308.
