How much have you lost and how much do you still have to lose?

Sorry just curious and coming from another thread. I was wondering how much we've all lost so far and left to lose? I'll start

I've lost 3 stone so far and have 3.5 stone left to lose, then it's on to maintenance. Fingers crossed.

12kg down, 3kg to go. I do experience very long plateaus and sudden losses so who knows if I'll make it within my budgeted year.

So far on this thread that's 1279.5 pounds lost. Over 91 stone.

And as much as it is likely a few thousand pounds in cost, still likely less than the cost of one bariatric surgery,

unsync · 30/01/2025 13:41

29.7 kg down, 57% of the way through.

49lbs and I want another 3 stone off. I'm a very slow loser - I've been taking MJ since May. I have been on a plateau since the end of December. I'm just on my second dose of 12.5. I want to speed it up a bit so I'm planing on cutting out alcohol.

GingerLiberalFeminist · 30/01/2025 13:56

36lbs. My BMI is 25.5 so technically I'm nearly there but I'd like to shed another 20lbs.

Sw: 209lbs
gw: 155lbs
Cw: 174lbs
Height: 5'9"
age 43

I'm on the tablets though and I have weeks here and there where I seem to lose nothing. I have lost my boobs though 😥

Edit to add stats

WeAllHaveWings · 30/01/2025 14:29

76lbs lost so far
34lbs to go to reach BMI < 30 Overweight.

Current mindset is to try to maintain there for a while, but I will reassess once I get there. "Healthy" BMI would be another 32lbs.

ShiftAMountain · 30/01/2025 14:38

About 50lbs lost and at least 50lbs to go.

ThatPearlSeal · 30/01/2025 14:41

You are all so inspirational! Im 3rd week in and a meagre 4 pounds down... I can't wait until I can join the gang of gigantic losers! 😀🤗

IReallyNeedThisToWork · 30/01/2025 15:33

Lost - 5st 10lbs
Still to lose to healthy bmi - 1st 4lbs
Still to lose to preferred (fantasy!) goal - 2st 2lbs

TryingWegovy · 30/01/2025 17:37

I did it!

Current weight 59.75kg.
BMI 22.

WafflingDreamer · 30/01/2025 17:55

I've lost almost 3st (41lbs) and have about 7st (98lbs) to go. Not really sure on my target 7st more will take me to BMI 24.1

poppetandmog · 30/01/2025 17:58

I started at 18 stone and am now just under 14, so 4 stone lost. Not sure how much I want to lose. Technically I would have to lose another 4 to have a healthy bmi but I have been 12 stone before and happy with that weight so going to just take a stone at a time.

SupermarketMum · 30/01/2025 18:01

This thread is absolutely inspirational. You have all lost so much. I’m on wegovy and on my last 0.5mg dose and only lost 4kg so far, but to be honest I haven’t been dieting properly and just trying to make mostly healthy choices…

has anyone else been losing slowly and still managed to add up to a big loss? I’d like to lose another 15kg ideally

TheChosenTwo · 30/01/2025 18:01

41lbs down, not sure how much more I want to lose. I’m not really driven by the numbers or the data (although I do look at it all, it’s just that I’m not focussed on a BMI target) I need to get some more off to allow me a bit of a buffer but I’ve lost the bloat face and belly and feel so much better in myself.

Tohaveandtohold · 30/01/2025 18:49

For me it’s 41lbs lost. My BMI is now 25.6 , size 10 generally and I feel so happy where I am now. I have 11 lbs to get to my original target of BMI of 23.5 but I’m not chasing this, I’m focusing more on exercises to help with toning up as I’ve lost weight all over and need it more defined, etc. but happy overall

Snozzlemaid · 30/01/2025 19:08

What a fantastic thread. Shows just how revolutionary this drug is.
No other weight loss thread could report such amazing results.

I'll add my stats:

I've lost 5st 7lbs and have another 2st 6lbs to get to a healthy BMI.

DarkForces · 30/01/2025 19:09

2 stone lost. 3-3,5 to go!

User67556 · 30/01/2025 21:21

RobinEllacotStrike · 30/01/2025 10:58

25 kilos down
25 kilos to go

How long did this take you please? I've lost 10kg in 3.5 months and hoping to lose another 22kg before summer (approx 6 months I guess) just wondered if this is realistic.

Blondeshavemorefun · 30/01/2025 21:40

4s 1 lb lost

another 2s + to go and will be 23 bmi

much more than that and I look awful

DearOwl · 30/01/2025 22:34

Was 15 stone and am now 9 stone 9 so about 5 stone 5 lbs lost

BMI of 22.9 I think and nothing really comes off now and hasn't for a few months so I'll probably accept I am where I am and start tapering down

DiscoBeat · 30/01/2025 22:48

Looking to lose a stone, but keep caving in to temptations. I really want to be back to a size 10. Starting couch 25k so hopefully some good results soon!

@User67556 Hi. I started in April 2024 and I'd say I was down to 10 stone by November so just over 7 months. Mostly on 2.5 and 5mg and I eat around 1500 calories a day and always have

I've since chipped away at another half stone ish and i now go between 9 stone 7 and 9 st 9

Thanks its taken me nearly 4 months to lose just over 1.5 stone so I think it'll take me a bit longer but it is encouraging. I've got 6 months til summer so I'm hoping that's long enough to lose at least another 2 stone and then I'll feel a lot more comfortable (for once) in summer time! Well done on your weight loss.
