    CW:181.6
    GW: 155
    Goal date: 3/1/14
    Calories :1290 on here
    TDEE: 1670

    What do your current workout plan consist of? And are you making progress or seeing any changes?

    I am currently doing Jamie Eason Live fit from bodybuilding .com Along with treadmill and elliptical for my cardio

    Feel free add me.

    I don't think you calculated correctly. Your BMR alone should be 1628...so I don't think your TDEE would be 1670.


    I did it correctly. Just didn't word it right. My TDEE is 2234 but my calories per day to lose weight according to IFFYM.COM IS 1676.

    GW: under 150, probably 145?
    Goal date: next year sometime (I'm lifting, too)
    TDEE: 1939
    Doing: TDEE - 10-12%

    I hope it works. Last time, a few years ago, I did it on 1800-1900 and that allowed great muscle and I even kept on losing fat, which I didn't want (boobs, hips). This time I'm trying the lifting with fewer calories to make it a little faster, but I'm not sure yet how that goes with the muscle part. I got totally out of shape in between, so hopefully I still get my newbie gains.

    So far so good! Very slow weight loss, but the inches are coming off (and on, lol, on my shoulders) nicely. I wish I had the patience to do it at the higher calories, though. We'll see :)

    Let me know how it goes!

    Height: 5' 7.75"
    CW:181.5
    GW: 135 (not really concerned on end weight)
    Calories : try to maintain around 1600
    More concerned with body composition than weight


    I am currently doing ChaLean Extreme and will probably incorporate NROWL4W into that as well. I like the strength/resistance training. This is only my first week so will keep posted on the updates. I am sure it will be very slow since I have Hashimoto's subacute thyroiditis :\ I live in Hypothyroid world :)
