MelsAuntie

22 lbs
8 months or so (I wanted to take it slow, not lose weight rapidly)
1700 calories per day
workouts; highly variable; gardening, farm work, haying, moving and stacking firewood, loading and unloading feed sacks and hay wagons, feeding and watering livestock, whatever it took to get the job done each day. Once in a while, 30 to 45 minutes on my elliptical machine, but mostly farm labor.

willdob3

1. Pounds lost:
Over 100lbs. But I really don't care about the scale. I'm more interested in fat loss, LBM gains, and looking & feeling wonderful.
2. How long it took:
Not done. I figure I'll be working on building muscle by winter. Hopefully I will just keep on improving. At least, that is the plan. Why would I ever want to be "done?"
3. How many calories you were eating a day:
It varies. A lot.
4. How many days a week you worked out:
It varies.
5. How many calories did you burn during your workout:
Don't know & don't care. There really aren't accurate methods of figuring this. Add to that the fact that it is much more complicated than calories in, calories out. But, I'm definitely doing it right despite all that. lol...

5. How many calories did you burn during your workout: between 60-350 (and yes, I ate back my exercise calories.)

A short walk would burn 60, a 3 mile run burns about 350.

5. No idea, never monitored other than seeing what the gym machines said and I don't trust those! Didn't stop me succeeding.

5. How many calories did you burn during your workout:

1.25lbs on mfp...this a new account.
2.6 months
3.2180-3000 a day...once I hit my goal I slowly reversed out adding 20 cals back a week and kept losing weight during this period.
4.4-5
5. Difficult to tell as majority of it was weight training and I use the TDEE method.

Footnote: Currently bulking at the moment, well trying for lean gains.

IvanLimwk

1. 48
2. 177 days
3. Around 1460 - 1600 Cals. I will eat more if my fitbits tracked extra cal burned.
4. I cycle 3 days a week. around 34km = 1 hr +
5. At my current weight (105kg) I burn around 1100 -1300 Cal per workout.

All these data are from devices.
- Fitbit Force Tracks my walking cals burned.
- Fitbit scale tracks my daily weight and body fat %
- Wahoo Tracks my Hear Rate and cadence to calculate Cycling cals burned

My daily cal burned without workout is around 2600 Cal. but if I workout it will be around 4000 Cal

1. Pounds lost:
2. How long it took:
3. How many calories you were eating a day:
4. How many days a week you worked out:
5. How many calories did you burn during your workout:

1. At least 60 (probably a little more since I didn't weigh myself the first time until I'd been counting calories for two weeks - not sure why I did that)
2. 4 years total if you include a 2 year maintenance pause for pregnancy and new motherhood during which my actual weight only fluctuated about 5 pounds
3. 1200-1400 calories a day
4. 5-6 days a week before I got knocked up and while I was pregnant, then none, now 2-3 days a week
5. I have no idea as I never really paid attention to calorie burn. I think now it ends up being 100-150 per day that I workout

H0neybug

Lost about 30 pounds from September to February keeping it off eating healthy foods when I'm hungry, some weeks I work out 3-5 times, some weeks I don't "workout" at all...I workout until the I'm pouring sweat and since I'm maintaining, I'm burning more than I'm eating...lol

only had meats, veggies, egss, salads with no dressing and all seafood.
