Count me in again this month. I'm aiming for a 6lb loss this month -- that would take me out of obese range and into overweight.

SW: 163
CW: 163
GW: 157

(If I can manage a pound more than that I get my third broccoli)

My goal is to average a weight loss of 1.5 to 2.0 lbs per week. Doing the math would put me at between 167 and 169.25 by the end of May, and I'll be happy anywhere in that range. So, my goal for May is to exit the 170's and move into the 160's!

Ah...I have now seen the post above, so I will use the same format (I'm new and still figuring things out). I'll use the approximate midpoint of my end-of-May range as my goal weight:

Results as of May 20...4 lbs lost to date:
SW: 176
CW: 172
GW: 168

Weekly Weigh-Ins:

May 6: 175
May 13: 174
May 20: 172
May 27:

My goal for May is to get rid of 1.5 lbs a week. I'll have my weigh-in either later today or tomorrow so I'll check back with you guys. If it's today I'll just write that number down for May 1st and that will obviously be my start weight. Getting excited

I am just getting back on track, so I think this might help. I am going to aim high because I am still shedding water weight. So I'll shoot for 10lbs from whatever I weigh in on the 3rd

Why not? I'm in, I don't truly expect to hit 159 by end of the month and honestly, anything below 162 would be awesome because that means I get to hit my 10%!

SW- 166
GW- 159 and below!
