I'm coming up on 3 years now and in the first 15 months, I lost to goal (24.9 BMI), which was a loss of 189 pounds. I continued to lose a little more, so I sit at about a 195-199 pound loss most days.

I think your goal is very do-able.

For me, I wanted to lose the weight but most importantly, I wanted the best chance of keeping it off. With the DS, I have that.

Good luck to you.

I weighed 265 going into surgery. I now weigh 120. I've lost more than I weigh now.

It's certainly possible.

I lost 240 pounds from a high of 400, regained 20. Now I'm playing at starting some cardio exercise to see if it helps. We shall see. I'm not complaining about a net loss of 220 pounds fersure :-).

I lost initally lost 300 lbs and had a bounce back of about 15 lbs. It's expected that you will regain about 10 to 20 lbs after you hit your "low". I wouldn't have regained but I stopped exercising and starting eating a bunch of junk when I returned to grad school, I've started to refocus on high protein/lower carb diet and rejoined the gym and some of the weight has already come off.
