I started this challenge last year, but was having digestive issues that I had to deal with. Now that I have those issues figured out I am back ready to work towards reaching my goal this year.

Hi Friends, just wondering your opinion on whether to eat at calorie goal, under goal or eat exercise calories? I tend to stay under or at goal but I’m not sure that’s the right decision. Thanks:)
MFP is designed for you to eat the goal it’s given you on average, and to eat back exercise calories. Some days can be over and others under, what matters is that it evens out.
Exercise calories can be over-estimated, so many users choose to only eat a portion (often 25-50%) but it’s important for your body to have the fuel it needs to perform to the best of its ability. You should not consume < 1200 net calories (female) or <1500 net calories (male) per day.5 -

This week I had a big drop. For some reason, I always follow these up with terrible food days and that's exactly what I did this weekend. I try to keep only healthy foods on hand, but even healthy foods can be overdone. However I managed to lay my hands on some Valentine's cookies and ate four of those too. I still made it under my weekly calorie goal, but it wasn't for lack of trying to break it. The struggle was very real.
GOALS: Forgive myself for the eat-all-the-things weekend. Plan the food, log the food, eat the food and no extra food. Stick to the workout schedule and get plenty of water in. Spend some time every morning playing with my puppy in the yard.

Well, 1.5lbs off is ok, but I felt as though I might have done better this week. As weird as it may sound, I feel physically like I lost more. But hey ho, its still a loss.
Successes this week: Lost 1.5lbs, feeling a bit better overall, and I'm now just 1.5lbs away from losing 6stone since May 2018!
Challenges: Keeping focused and not letting myself get sidetracked. I'm lucky enough to have a really great support network, and they keep me on track as much as they can, so I need to utilise that and just remember where I was this time last year and how far I've come since then.2 -

I have 55 lbs pounds to lose for my son’s wedding in May 2020.
I realise to be successful long term is slow & easy. I've did many quick fix diets which you never maintain but hopefully this time is different. My main goal is to remain focused on a healthy lifestyle. Snacking mainly on fruit and have 3 balanced meals per day with limited alcohol only on special occasions and not every week. Luckily i enjoy the gym & plan to go to exercise classes 4-5 days per week.
Started this challenge on week 3.
