age 34
5'2" small to medium build

sw 200.8 lb Jan 14
cw 194.0 lb Feb 19
gw 130-150 (undecided as I'm focused on size/fitness, not weight)

I eat a minimum of 1700 calories daily, but my goal is 1842 on normal days and 2127 on workout days when I do weights. I don't pay attention to exercise calories, because they're already factored into my calorie goals.

I work out 3x/week doing weights and a couple of cardio days. I'm down 6.8 lb and a total of seven inches so far.

MFP set me at 1400ish cals per day and eat exercise calories to make myself net at least 1200 cals per day (which I didn't quite understand before but now I do). I allow myself 1 cheat day per week.

I am 32 and 5'3".

Highest weight was at the end of my 2nd pregnancy - 142lbs
Post-pregnancy - 130lbs
4 months post-partum - 115lbs
CW - 108-111lbs (lost the last few pounds after I weaned my son at 11 months)

My net calories goal is 1460. I eat back my exercise calories. I don't restrict my diets, and everything in moderation. I was exercising 5 days a week for 12-30 min. I was doing the bodyrock challenge. Some days I rode the stationary bike, so I can eat more. I went on vacation last week, and haven't got back to exercising. I will start again next week, doing bodyrock.

Eating 1200 cal plus my exercise calories
gluten free and dairy free due to digestion issues

I try to eat only natural sugars so my "treats" nut and date bars or dried fruit
Eating sugar just makes me crave sugar. It is a vicious cycle. I ate artificial sweeteners for years but after a serious recurrance of my digestion issues I try to eat as naturally as possible ...lots of whole foods.

I was down to 125 last summer. At minimum I want to get back there.

GW 115-120

I started out eating 1450 calories plus most of my exercise calories. The smaller I get the more I eat. I am now eating around 1700 on non-workout days and 2000-2100 on workout days. Cardio as a 15 minute warm-up before New rules of lifting program and then cardio immediately following it for however long I am motivated (usually about 10-50minutes). I average around 4 days of working out a week.

5'3 small build

SW 236 lbs / 107 kg
CW 207 lbs/ 94 kg
GW 145-150 lbs / around 67 kg (then I might re-evaluate)

1200 calories / day and I usually don't eat much of my exercise calories back, although I will if I'm still hungry.

When it comes to exercise I go to the gym 3-4 times a week, where I do 45-60 min of cardio then do strength training on the machines, anywhere from 10 to 30 minutes. I also usually take a long walk once a week, as a rest between gym days. I usually have a full day off/carte blanche day. No workout and I eat whatever I feel like eating, but still log.

I am on 1200 calories a day and aiming for a 1.5lb weight loss per week. This is very new to me, just compelting my second week. I can see people doing really well and am positive. Nice to see so many people the same height on the site and doing so well.

GW 145 - Not sure what I'll look like at 145 but I thought 50lb sounded like a good number to start with I'll adjust as I need to.

I've hit a bit of a plateau and need to change up my workout routine. Problem there is I have ZERO motivation right now. I want to start C25K and see how that goes. I also want to do 30DS again. So we'll see what happens from here!

Feel free to add me.

age 25.. almost 26 (yikes)
5'2 - not sure what build I am because I have always been fat

SW- 262 lbs
CW- 244.4
GW- not sure. I am aiming for 200 for my first goal weight. After that maybe150, then who knows. I wanna keep going until I feel and look good in my own skin.

I eat about 1400- 1700 calories a day. I eat about half of my exercise calories back. I have been nursing a knee injury for the past 2-3 weeks now, so my exercise has suffered some. I am now down 18 lbs in 9 weeks.

It says that my BMI is healthy at 130 something, which I dont buy. I want to feel good, not look skinny.

5' 2" -- Large frame with hourglass shape

SW - 195
CW - 190
GW - 150 -- after that I will see how I look or how clothes feel. I was 135 in hs and in great physical shape, but since having 2 kids, I am unsure what changes (hips and boobs and such) have occured.

I workout 5 days a week and I am set at almost 1400 calories. Sometimes I eat back workout calories and sometimes not. But, I just started so I am sure that this will change over time.

GW - 145 (though I'd love to get down to 135 but want to be realistic. I'm not exactly a spring chicken anymore!)

I have my calories set at 1400 and sometimes I eat back my exercise calories and sometimes I don't. It really just depends on how hungry I am. If I'm hungry, I'll eat. If not, I won't eat back those calories. I really just try to listen to my body and do what it needs.

I'm speeding up for holidays at the moment so doing quite a lot of exercise. Over the week I normally do : 2 x zumba, 1x step class, 1 x body pump class, 2 x 30mins interval running, 1 x 10km run in the weekend. I eat 1200 kcal, dont eat my exercise cal back if I can go without because I know in a week there will be one or two days that I go over (I eat out a couple of times a week, and like to enjoy it!)

MFP set my goal at 1400. I usually don't eat that much so rarely go into my exercise calories, but I do allow for one "cheat day" as long as it's not excessive. I try to jog/run 3 days a week and am currently suffering thru the Butt Bible workout 6 days a week.
