I'm 5' 2" & my current weight is 140 lbs. My mini goal is 134 lbs, then I'll reassess & decide if I need to lose any more.

I started off on 1200 calories a day & had good losses for the first 2 weeks but then I stalled. I've now upped my calories to around 1350/1400 & am waiting patiently for weigh in day on Saturday to see if upping them was a good move or not!

I currently work out 6 days a week doing Ripped in 30, but I'm about to start some heavier lifting so maybe the scales won't move so much but hopefully the inches will keep coming off.

Good luck everybody x

:sad: I have only had breakfast and lunch and already over the amount of calories I am "supposed" to have. So If I don't work out every day I can't eat..... What is with this 1200 cal a day?

Loulabelle13 - After upping your calories, you may see an initial small "gain"; however, don't be alarmed by that because it's not a real weight gain. It takes a few weeks for your body to readjust after a weight loss stall. Just stick it out and you will start losing again.

Lilbpixie - Nothing says you only have to eat 1200 a day. I would suggest changing your settings to lose 1 pound or 1/2 pound per week because you have less than 10 pounds to lose. Or, you can start eating at your goal weight maintenance level so that there is no transistion between weight loss mode and maintaining.

I'm 5'1" and currently 143.5 with a goal weight of 130 (that's the high end of my ideal weight is supposed to be according to MFP). At my heaviest I was 210! That was Jan. 2011. Depending on how I look at 130 I may try to loose another 5-10 pounds. I'm pretty new here so feel free to add me as a friend, the more the merrier:)

:drinker: YAY!!!! haha I was beginning to feel like I was starving myself...

I'm 4'11" currently 120 and shooting for somewhere around 105. :smokin:

Lilbpixie - I did the 1200 calories for a few months, stalled out and was hungry all the time. So I did some research and upped my calories slowly to around 1750. I don't eat back my excerise calories though because they are already included in my activity (lifestyle) level and have been losing regularly now. If you decide to up your calories, they suggest upping them slowly and going from 1200 to 1300 one week and then 1300 to 1400 the next week and continue doing that until you reach the recommended calorie level.

Thats what I am going to do. thank you!

I have a lot to lose... I'm 5'1" and am currently at 199.5 (my highest weight was 235 and lowest adult weight 132). I'd like to get back to 150 and then maintain something healthy and go from there. I met with a nutritionist and did the testing for resting metabolic rate, etc. She put me on 1,000 calories. I try to stay between 1,000-1,200. I started doing high protein meal replacement shakes (for breakfast and dinner). I eat healthy snacks all day and a lunch (it's just easier to not cook at night when I'm home so I don't tempt myself to overeat. So far it's going great. Hopefully it'll be what I need to jump start my weight loss again. It's bad enough being overweight, but when you lose and gain a lot back it feels even worse.

I'm 5'2" started at 145, my goal is 130, that might change once I reach it, I didn't want to overestimate how much I can lose.

sdoldsMD2013

I'm 5'3, and I weigh around 130 lbs or so. My goal is to get to 105-110.

Hi what are you eating that put u over the calorie count so soon? Are u eating healthy, reducing portions? I'll try & help with suggestion if u like. Simple cooking at home and at work. It's working for me and I'm maintaining my weight and hoping to build muscle now. Don't get discourage its just a matter of finding the right foods.
