Height: 5'9"
Default 15% loss = 43lb
I stalled out at 247 for 3 weeks, but I finally dropped those 2 pounds!! I hit 245lb today, which is my third mini-goal = 15% loss!! I've also lost 4 inches off my bust, 5 inches off my waist, and 5 inches off my hips!
Next stop is 236lb, when my BMI will fall under 35.

I love the way you're setting goals. Until recently I'd been too afraid to commiting to a goal. I have now... and... have almost found it be a bit liberating in some strange way. Until I set that goal, my only goal had been not to quit. Now that I actually have a goal in place, I feel like I'm working toward something tangible.

Not sure how long this wave will last, but I'm going to ride it as long as I can.

So... again... I'm trying to say that I admire the way you've set goals and are meeting them.

Please keep us posted. You've inspired me to keep my eyes on my next goal which is 3 lbs away.

Thanks all! It's been a pretty great week - hitting that goal totally reenergized me to get back on track!
I love having the mini-goals to focus on... notice though, that I was pretty generous with the timing. Wanted to be realistic, but also not psych myself out if I didn't meet a tight deadline. I planned for 1% a week until I hit 215, then only .5% each week.
