I've finally made this journey a lifestyle mentally. My eating is coming along nicely. I'm working on establishing a fitness routine. I'm 37 yo, engaged, mother of 4 ages 3-18, professional counselor (largely sedentary), etc. My go to exercises are walking/jogging and kettle bell routines. I'm 5'8", weigh 198, desire to weigh 180 or 160, but mostly tone/firm and decrease body fat.

Hi B & B,
I am in the same boat, recently needed to ramp it up or "down" regarding calories. I have always worked out and told myself I was excersising so I could eat what I want! Well, I have discovered in one week where my pitfalls are and truly was clueless about calorie intake. For example I buy a very healthy granola from our local organic store not Whole Foods and found out that 12 oz is 850 calories!! My current goal is 1/2 to 1 lb per week and would like to be back to 160. After that maybe another 10. Thanks for listening!0 -
Hello. I have never been part of a group like this before. I'm trying to make my new lifestyle choices stick. Been using mfp on and off for a few years. I'm 5"2' and have a light frame. I'm not looking for anything extreme, just want to get the last 10 baby pounds off. I am beginning to work out consistently and am also trying to eat a mostly plant based diet. My end goal is 105 lbs. that's what I was pre-baby and is not underweight. Anyhow, would like to find some friends with similar goals of living healthy as a lifestyle rather than a diet.0
