Looking for november buddies. I got my approval today. Im so excited!!! Nov 4th here I come!!!!

I lived outside of Tuscaloosa. I miss it too. I live in WV. Born and raised a Mountaineer but a Alabamian at heart!

So what is everyone's goal weight or did Doc give you an estimated range to expect?

I'm 5'3" CW: 242 Excited to start my journey and put all this weight behind me!

My goal weight is 135. Once I hit that, I will be in a normal BMI. Then I will let my body settle into a weight that it likes. Whether it be 130, 125, 120. Whatever it feels comfortable at. :-)

I would like to hit 135. At first I did not have any set "goals" but a friend of mine suggested to set some. So 135-145 is my goal weight.....and by my 40th birthday which will be 7-12 weeks after surgery I would like to have 30-40 pounds gone. YIKES!!!! I did it!!! Just made it official!!! That's my goals : )

I am 4'11 1/2 and cw 240 would like to lose 125

I am November 13 in Northeast Ohio. I have to do 6 weeks of Optifast prior to surgery, SW: 540 CW: 494

I'll be 40 on the next one too... I'm 5'4 and will be happy around 155lbs... I remember being 144 in high school so will be very surprised if I hit it again now... (I wasn't overweight then) I'm 238 now.....

I really haven't thought of an actual number I want to reach as a "goal weight". The lowest I can remember being is 185 about 1-2 years after high school. I am 42 now. I guess 150 would be nice. That means I would have to lose 150 lbs... Omg is that even possible???
