I started at 155. Thanks. Daily logging and consistency did wonders for me. I never thought "just calorie counting" would work for me . . .until I gave it an honest try and it did.

I'm 5'4". I've been as heavy as 178, but started MFP at 163. I'm now around 128.

I was going to try to get to 125 and bulk, but I can't. Too much for my bod. I'm reverse dieting now and will hopefully be in a surplus by the first week of November, in time for my 30th birthday

Never thought my goal would be to gain (and cut again)! It's been a long journey.

Oh my, please share how you got to this point so fast. I started at 149, I'm 5' 3, right now I'm 132 and stuck. I really need help reaching 125. Thanks

It wasn't super-fast.

Here's what I did: I logged every day and I logged everything. I weighed all solid foods on a food scale. Of the 21 meals I eat a week, I tried my best to prepare at least 19 myself so I would know exactly what the calories were (there were some weeks this wasn't possible because I was travelling for work). I did 30 minutes of cardio five days a week and 60 minutes two days a week and ate about 50% of the calories back (the past few months I have had a Fitbit Charge HR, so I've been eating them all back). I added body resistance training about six months in. I didn't have cheat days -- I had some days when I may have gone over, but I tried to balance it out within the week. If I craved something, I found a way to make it fit within my calories. For the last ten pounds or so, I added a casual walk during my lunch break (around 18-30 minutes, five days a week). I weighed myself each morning, but I only paid attention to the trend (I use Libra for this, but I've heard great things about Trendweight also).

I'm 5'4, started around 152 and I'm around 142.5 right now. I'd love to get down to 120, but I'd be happy with 125 I think. Right now, I'll just be thrilled to crack 139 finally:) Feel free to add me.

Haha I'm 5"3.75 as well

Hi there, Im new here, Im 5'3.5 I am currently at 187, ( lost 5 pds my first two weeks, 3rd week ends tomorrow) I would like to get to 140, it's tough, I've been trying to lose weight for years with no success, but then I've always had them tied to a goal, like going on a vaca or something..... NOW Im doing it cause I want to, and cause I want my back to stop hurting so much..... My goal is by spring, I can do a flip on the parallel bar, nothing drastic, just a simple flip. LOL

I'm close to 5'4. I weight 170 and I'm trying to get down to 130.

5'4" here. Only started about 7 weeks ago. SW 153.3. GW 125 (where I spent most my life and am the most comfortable). Not sure where I'm at now because I haven't weighed myself yet. My jeans that were tight when I started are really loose right now so I'm taking that as a good sign.

I'm 5'4.5" My goal is to get up to 115
Started at 91 pounds, up to 103 currently

kailyw05

I'm 5' 3.5" (though I conservatively set my account to 5' 3").
I started back in January at 153 lbs.
GW was 126 lbs, hit that in June.
Maintained the summer around 128 lbs.
Today I weigh 124 lbs and I'm pretty happy here. I wouldn't go below 120 right now for personal reasons.

Hi I am a 47 and started Jan 5th at 179. I am currently at 144 and have been stuck there for about a month, but haven't been eating quite as healthy as I should. This week I am getting back on track. I would like to loose another 15-20 lbs. Not sure what I want that weight to be, as long as my tummy is flatter and not wiggly I would be thrilled.

cerise_noir

5'4"
Used to be over 260lbs
187 now.

My goal weight is 130, but as I am doing resistance training and will move to a weights training program at some point, that goal will change. I am aiming for around 22-25% body fat.

Hi I'm 5' 4.5" and I started out at 390 pounds. I am currently at 327 and a half. I can only dream to be where you ladies are. I'm just taking it one day at a time and one meal at a time. I just started using MFP a few weeks ago and so far it's been a big help. Congratulations to all of you on how well you have done.
