    Sunflowerhippi - we're off in age, but not too far off in goals here, I think. I am never under 1000 cal/day lol. More like 1500 even though my daily goal is set at 1310. I am pretty active at work and so my goal cals always go up when I get home and sync my fitbit ;).
    Here's my info. If you think we match up:

    Okay, let's do this!
    Age: 25

    Daily Calorie Goal: 1450
    CW: 145
    GW (for this challenge): 135

    I am a runner, but I am currently recovering from foot surgery. I am a cook for a living, so I am on my feet all day and I don't count this towards my workouts. I have been using Just dance on the Wii, Zumba DVDs, and I'd like to start a lifting routine again. I'll also be back to running no later than the middle of this challenge.
