@Dominique - you know, I didn't even realize that my goal is just a tad more than half my original weight! It's like I was carrying an extra person around... that surely puts things in perspective, doesn't it?
I started on May 18, 2016. So, about 8.5 months ago. I don't have a date for my final goal - I figure it will happen when it happens. I don't want to get overly fixated on deadlines and start obsessing about numbers on the scale (which I can totally do if I let myself). As long as things are moving along and I am feeling good, I'm happy.
Once I am at goal weight (or thereabout), I will start focusing on adding some extra muscle mass. But, because that requires a completely different dietary approach, I will reassess my nutrition once I get there.
Completing C25K felt so good! I definitely recommend it to anyone who is interested in trying out running. The program truly works!

@IdahoSandy: you’re doing great! Are you following a particular diet, or mostly controlling your calories by tracking with MFP? what Fitbit are you using? Have you found your calculated deficit (as per MFP for calories in and as per Fitbit for calories out) matched your actual weight loss?

So January 6, 2016, I weighed 195.9 lbs. That's about 20-30 too much, so I focused and moved down to 186lbs by March 25. Alas, that was the low point. Steady rise after that until I hit 202.3lbs on January 6, 2017. Here's my TrendWeight chart for the whole story.
196 -> 186 -> 202 -> ?
So, since the Jan 6, 2017 high point, I've been losing about 1.2lbs/week. Today's actual weight was 193.2 but my TrendWeight is still at 196.4 (TrendWeight shows a moving average daily weights to eliminate some of the day to day noise that variances in water weight introduce). Goal weight is 165 to 174 lbs, which would put me in the top end of my normal BMI range.

No more gaining!

Goal weight is 120 by June 3 to wear a specific dress.

I seem to be stuck at 177. Gym was on point this week. I usually take my 16 y/o and we hit the weights and then he usually finds something else to do when I do my cardio. He tried out the stairmaster and recommended I do the same. So I tried it out Thurs and Sat and I'm liking it better than the treadmill. I had a few meals out this week but nothing ridiculous. I'm noticing changes on my body, more veins, more definition, so something is definitely going on, the weight just hasn't moved down much.

WEEKLY WEIGH IN for me (Phil Chenevert)
WEEK FOUR OF MY WEEKLY WEIGH-IN FOR ACCOUNTABILITY.
highest weight 212 lbs.
goal weight 144 (I am a short old guy, 5'4" with 76 fun filled years)
WEEK 1 JAN 16, 2017 BEGINNING WEIGHT 161.6 pounds
WEEK 2 JAN 23, 2017 CURRENT WEIGHT 162.2 pounds + 0.6 pounds whoops!
WEEK 3 JAN 30, 2017 CURRENT WEIGH 160.4 -down 1.8 pounds !!!! yaaaa. feelin' good too
WEEK 4 FEB 6, 2017 CURENT WEIGHT 160.0 - another tiny loss and in the right direction too.
Well, my daughter bought me my favorite flavored King Cake (lemon) and so now I have fallen off of the King Cake waggon. Oh well, it is delicious and I must just eat a piece a day. Another note is that I have been working with weights for about 8 weeks now so that probably has an impact; I can feel my muscles getting stronger and tighter. In fact I gotta go work out right now. Yippee, another great week coming up.

PW - 259.8 (1/29/17)
CW - 259.4 (-0.4 lbs)
Progress: 1.90 lbs/week for 53 weeks
UGW- No idea yet
So I definitely coasted this week, which was the plan. I didn't count calories, or aim for a specific step count (although I think mentally I'm back to aiming for 10,000). I'd gotten to a point where I was doing an insane number of steps and working on higher calorie burn days. I kept saying that I was going to look at quality of workouts (ie. working harder, not longer) but wasn't doing it. I definitely was burned out. I'm not quite sure I'm ready to go back and hit it hard, but worst case scenario I found that I can move less, eat more (without counting) and still squeak out a bit of a loss.
I've been super desk-bound at work. I meant to fix that today but it really didn't work. So I'm off to go workout for a bit, make dinner, probably log my food, and then either go to bed early or use the hot tub before the freezing rain and/or snow starts.

Following keto diet but weightloss has been very slow. Mostly becasue of no regular fitness routine.
I do at most 2 days of crossfit class and 2 days of running for 30 mins.
Need to bum up on the excercise in the comming days.

Good morning,
To say I am disappointed is an understatement. I logged 6 days last week. Friday was a day out with my husband. I made no effort to keep track of what I ate. There was a lesson learned though. After I had ordering a latte macchiato I realized I should have ordered tea for zero calories... Even that day I did not over do it.
The scale IS moving in the right direction, just at a snail's pace.
