I don't know if this helps or not, but I've already *lost* 80 pounds over the past 5-6 years. I guess what I'd say is that it's definitely possible, and don't let things like plateaus hold you back. You hit a plateau, just ride it out.

I'm about 5'4" and my maintenance goal is 115. Right now I'm a little above that (around 120), due to some holiday stupidity. I usually can maintain at around 1500 cals.

I lost about 80 lbs which sounds impressive, but I did that over a period of 5 years, mostly in dribs and drabs. I found it was easier to lose 10-15 pounds at a time than a big number.
