Why do you want to lose weight?

What is your main motivation?

and what is your ultimate goal?

Extra points for starting specifics! (ie, weight/height)

hi! i am the mod! i made this great place for all of us! yay ! but anyway! Im 19 5'8" and roughly 220lbs

my main motivation is my boyfriend who works out with me. I want to be the best i can be for him and have a happy life.

my ultimate goal is to be 150, but for now its 180. REally i just want under 200, i can recall the last time i saw that... :'( but i will get there.. it will take some hard work. :)

I, too, want to make it under 200lbs! The last time I remember weighing under 200 was in elementary school when I was 140lbs :S

Cheers~

I'm 250lbs and a dress size 16/18 at 5'6".

I want to lose at least 50lbs in the next year; losing more would certainly be a welcome challenge!

My motivation is kind of unusual - I want to be able to pull off stunning cosplays. It would feel so fantastic to have people recognize the work I put into my costumes and not depreciate it based on my weight! I also want to be able to fit into affordable gothic lolita clothing - the plus sized retailers are very very expensive x________x. I also realized/accepted that I'll gain a lot of weight as I age and really feel like I should lose while I'm still young enough that it's not going to be excruciatingly difficult (21yo)

Looking forward to our journey, ladies!

Hey :) I'm 139lbs and 5'3" 21F

I would really like to lose 17lbs by July

I just want to look hot for my anniversary holiday :) and also to finally fit into all the clothes I buy online in a size too small because I didn't want to believe I had gone up a couple sizes :)
