My new 10 week ALOHA goal! Who's with me?!?

This is my first actual post of my own on MFP - and can I just say I ❤️ you guys! I started January 1 so I'm 60 days in today and am down about 21 lbs. I'm happy with my progress and total loss but I want to step up my game now! I have a trip to Hawaii (my happy place) coming up in 10 weeks and am determined to get to Onederland by then! If I make it, it will be the first time I've been under 200 in 17 years ( a HUGE goal for me).
So I'm looking for any and all support from all of you wise ones out there. I have been doing cardio on the treadmill 4x a week and some light strength training twice a week and I want to up my calorie burn as I don't feel like I've been pushing myself enough and I think that's what it's going to take to accomplish my goals. What works for you and what do you enjoy? I work out at home so I need things I can do there (would love suggestions on YouTube video workouts, etc...)
I try to keep my calories to 1200-1400 a day before exercise and this seems to be working but I'm trying to mix it up a bit as I've seen suggested by others, without going too low. I try hard to meet my protein goal every day

www.fitnessblender.com is a great website! I'm using the same calorie range as you and have a Tough Mudder event in June that I'm getting ready for so I will join you on your 10 week quest. I need to drop some weight and build some upper body strength before the big day.1
