    Hello everyone! I'm sorta new to my fitness pal (I've been lurking around since the beginning of the year but havent committed to weight loss. Its now April 14th and I haven't loss a pound since January because I've been lazy honestly. Not to bore anyone but I'm honestly pushing as of TODAY to lose 35lbs by August 14th. I am currently 185lbs and 5.7" in height (the biggest I've even been). I honestly need the motivation, exercise tips, meal tips and support from those who can relate to where I am.

    Hi everyone! Back again this morning. I did a 100 minute walk (5 miles) last night and according to MYWALKAPP I burned 600+ calories. Also note that yesterday my caloric intake was some 880+ calories of my 1200 daily allowance. After the walk, I apparently gain allowance calories of some 950+. When i returned home, I ate about 250 of those calories and this morning I feel like royal crap... Very drained, weak and tired. I regret not eating my full 1200 calorie allowance yesterday and clearly my body is feeling the affects of doing that. I'd also like to point out that even though I officially started yesterday (Tuesday), since Monday of this week I monitored my meals and consumed some 1500 calories. Now between Monday (no exercise), Tuesday (exercised) and this morning (will exercise tonight), something must have happened because my weight on the scale is minus 2lbs. I'm not sure if I should feel excited about this because my scale did this last week Monday, perhaps its random water weight. I could be completely wrong about this or spot on. I await some feedback as I try to understand weight loss and healthy living.

    @marianamoya wow, 20lbs! is great! You did it before, you can and WILL do it again! Best wishes to you.
