I started (this) year at 20st 10 lb, (last year at 21st 10lb)
Ideally in my head I'd like to get to 9.5st which I was when I was 20, however am going to settle for 11st and see how I feel.
Good thing is I've lost 2.5 stone already or 36lb of the 136lb so 'just' another 100 to go!!!!!
I need a lie down!

I started at 27st 8.5lbs so in theory my "ideal"weight would be a max of about 11 stone, preferably 9st 13lb, so I "needed" to lose 65% of my body weight / almost 18 stone.
I don't have any intention of aiming for that as its way too much to plan for, so I'm just taking each day as it goes and see where I end up.
So far I've lost over 6 stone and over 20% of my body weight.

Oooh good! No need to cajole you!!!
Ermintrude you put me to shame with your losses! You have done so well and are ab inspiration. Ok I also think 'that blinking Ermintrude she's gonna get there before me'! Lol! I mean that on a nice way BTW!
I keep thinking I should have lost double by now! But as hubby said I'm in control now and as long as I stay in control it'll come off!!! I love that man!

Yow I dont think so, I seem to put on as often as I lose!
It's only averaging about 1 lb a week at the mo. Ive just ordered some new scales as mine cant seem to make their mind up - they said I put 3lb on last week which I didnt think I really deserved, then at WI yesterday I'd lost 5, now today Ive put most of it back on again. The b/f got weighed and he seems to have mysteriously gained half a stone a well
Doesnt really matter I guess provided Im sticking to the plan, but Id like to have a vague idea if theyre actually telling me the truth or not. Theyre about 8 years old, so I thought sod it, Ill get a more up to date set

I average 0.8 and the target weight app says I'll never reach my target! So I reset it for 1/2 stone!

You'll never reach it?!
Wow, how does it know you're not gping to live til 150? What target weight app is this? Might have to give it a go Ive set my target as getting to 7 stone, then we'll see what happens after that EDIT: by "getting to" I mean 7 stone OFF, not, like *being* seven stone, natch...

For those who have it to loose - it is doable... I know - I've done it (and then some). Like Ermintude - I started out at 27st8.5 and am currently hovering around the 13st mark. As the sig says - if anyone ever finds the other half of me - tell it to get lost - i never want to see him again...

Thanks
I've been a member since December 2008. I got to what I thought was my last target October 2010 (at that point it was 15.5st off). I'm struggling a little at the moment, and have had some gains that it seems I haven't been able to recover from, and just to take the pressure off, reset target to a loss of 14st13.5 (that's what it's meant to have been - but had some problems with getting it on the computer so I wait and see). I'll get that other 7.5 off - when the time is right.
