You look great! It's nice to see someone with similar stats for inspiration. I am 5'1" and started MFP a few weeks ago at 157. I would like to get back down to 118, which is where I was when I got married 13 years ago.

I started at 140 and i can't get past 132.,i have dropped to 131.4 and that was it and then back up. this week i have been all over the place, 132 and on wed up to 135,lol... today back to 132. i log everything and i cut out a lot of bad habits including pop, etc and i exercise min 30 minutes a day up to 60.... and no luck.. i started this Oct 22... believe that! never would of thought to loose at least 10 lbs was going to be so hard!

You look great! I'm 5'1 1/2" and my goal is 135 where I was when I met my hubby 15 years ago. But seeing you has me thinking, maybe a little lower. I'll reevaluate once I get to 135.

We must be twins, I'm struggling to lose those last 10 lbs. My goal is 125 too, I'm stuck at 135. I've been doing 4 days of 90 to 110 minutes of (weights, spining, and interval runs). I just check my BMR at 142 was 1329.1 and now my BMR at 135 is 1298.65, I'm wondering if I need to input my goals with my current rate to see if my calorie intake changes for the workouts I'm doing.

lin7604

i would it changes with every lb. with me at 132 i am at 1248 bmr. I changed my goals for calories to that min... i just don't what else to do to get that 10lb goal met...i still wanted to get under that in the end. why can so many others with a mew build at 5.2 get under 125? but yet i struggle to get to 130.

thelassiemickyjames

whats your calorie intake? I plateau'd around 132 for 2 months.

I do exercise a lot and I eat around 1500-1600 per day. When I was eating 1200 I hit a plateau hard and I didn't break it until I increased my calories. I think my body thought I was starving and I couldn't lose any weight without a sufficient amount of calories.

my calorie intake was 1200 for nov and dec, that is when i lost 5 lbs. in Jan i hit plateau for the entire month so for feb i upped it to 1310. from a 1 lb loss to a .5 loss a week, since that was all i was loosing anyway... 2 weeks in and i lost 1 lb but then have been yo yo ing up and down 2 lbs all of feb. So yesterday i put it to my bmr of 1252. i should see some sort of result in a month time frame.... i just can't seem to get under 132. i will hit 131 for a day then it's gone. maybe once a week for the last 2 weeks. but then back up the next day. so for march i figured i'd go down a bit more and see where that takes me. who knew this was going to be so hard. I had a goal date ( 5 month) to loost at least the 1st 10... can't get past 8...

I love this thread, you look amazing, very inspirational. When did you start? I'm almost 5'2, I was 155 and I'm currently 129. My ultimate goal is 115. It's not easy but I feel great and hope to look as good as you soon. I'll have flabby belly skin though b/c I've had 2 kids, it's all about how we feel right?! Who says I can't wear a 50s style high waisted bikini? You rock!

Love this. I;m 5'2" and I want to get to 115. So you just let me that it is actually possible and not quite as elusive has i thought.

mawmawandlovingit

I'm 5' 2" and have a goal of 115. I just started Jillian Michael's Body Revolution so hopefully it will come off fast!

lin7604

man what i would do to be 115-120 now a days... if i get to 125 i will be very fortunate! I will keep trucking at this and hopefully i will finally hit 130 at least someday soon...

You look beautiful! I'm 5' 2" and looking to get down to 125-120, and I just hope I look as half as good as you at 122. Enjoy your fabulous new figure!
