    Im 5'7 and 183 lbs. I had surgery on both feet this past summer and put on over 25 pounds. I changed jobs about a year ago from a unit nurse to a director of care which puts me on my butt behind a desk instead of running the hallways doing patient care. Im getting married this spring and really want to look and feel great. I just joined this site yesterday and started my diet and exercise program. Treadmill everyday. They have calculated 1200 a day for me but i am afraid of going into starvation mode as I still have 350 calories left to use at the end of the day and I am not hungery.

    25 years old.
    5'6".
    120 lbs.

    Eat anywhere from 1200-1400 calories per day and burn about 100-150, at the moment since I haven't been able to exercise much yet. My goal is more or less maintaining, which is what has been happening (it may go up or down a pound or two on any given day). A pound or two of loss is okay for me. I hope to get toned soon, and want to get out running and walking more when the weather is nicer. :)

    And exercise calories are always so delicious. I try to eat them all back, lol.

    Calories in/out: I don't track calories.
    I'm trying to tone up and get more healthy (stronger, cardiovascular). I don't want to lose any net lbs because I hope to gain muscle, but ultimately I'd like to lose my belly pooch.. but I know I'll need to watch my diet more for that.

    Hi!

    I'm 31 years old
    5'8"
    SW: 195
    CW: 173
    GW: 140/145 or size 6 whatever comes first
    I eat between 1600 - 1800 cals a day BUT I also breastfeed my 9 month old, so I add 300 cals to keep making milk properly.
    I just exercise to Jillian Michael's 30 day shred (just finished day 9 - almost to level 2!!!) after that I hope to do Ripped in 30 for the month of Feb, then in March & April, hubby and I are going to do Insanity together - might increase my cals at that point.
    ALSO - I am part of a group at my church called First Place 4 Health, which makes you reevaluate your body image, how you deal with temptation etc. all through the lens of what God says in the bible - I'm finding it SUPER helpful!
    My goal is to lose the weight so I look good in clothes again, and have renewed energy to spend better time with my husband and 4 little kids.
    My secondary goal is to make changes that will help me lose weight now, but that I can stick to for the rest of my life so I don't yo-yo with my weight like I've watched so many women in my life do!

    I eat 1800 to 2000 cals on workout days (occasionally a bit more), 1600 to 1800 on rest days. I workout 4 or 5 days a week. The workouts vary a lot so my calorie burns are anywhere from 200 to 800 (I'm a runner, but the weather as of late has confined me to the gym so I've been doing more strength/resistance exercises lately...I know I could use the treadmill, but I find it really boring)

    age 45
    height 5' 8"
    SW was 277 lb.
    CW is 167 lb.
    GW is 150 to 160 lb.

    I zigzag my calories and vary from 1200, 1400 and 2000. I don't track exercise calories as I don't use them in my food equations. I workout an hour a day, 4 days a week and walk most days on top of gym time. Health and fitness is what it's about for me.

    Height: 5'7.5"
    SW: 217
    CW:180
    GW:140 (but variable)
    Calories/day: ~1500-1700
    burn per day: variable, but usually between 250-500

    Exercise really depends. Usually cardio, with the occasional strength workout, though I'm trying to do more. I'm usually on the elliptical, stairmaster, adaptive motion trainer, recumbent bike, or cross trainer anywhere from 30-75 minutes. I'm starting to train for a half marathon, so I will be using the treadmill and doing more walking/jogging to get in shape to walk/jog the half. My goal is to get down to a healthy weight, get toned, and lose all the excess body fat I have (and there's a LOT!)

    Height/Weight: 5'8.5" 130#

    Eat: While I don't track currently, I did for a couple years and was obsessed with it. Because of this I have a great understanding of my intake because I am hyper-aware of cals, protein, carbs and fat numbers on a daily basis. I estimate that I am intaking anywhere from 1900-2100 cals/day.

    Burn: my focus is lifting 3 days/week. I definitely do at least 1 day of cardio but try to do two (either Spin class or running) and do not hesitate to skip it altogether if i need rest or am sore. Because I do not log and I mainly lift, tracking what I burn from an HRM is insignificant.

    Goals: to be stronger and faster than I was yesterday.


    ETA: I'm 30 years old.

    Age: 38
    5`9
    130 lbs (give or take a couple pounds, a few fluctuation in a month is no big deal)
    My fitbit avg is approx 2150/day
    I eat approx 2150/day - I use weekly average, not a day-to day. Day-to-day tracking is useless in my opinion, there are days you consume more, and days less, it should average out and that is what to look at.

    Ideal goal is 15% bodyfat, though not obsessive about it. I focused on body recomp. Currently 16.5-9-ish% bodyfat.

    I workout 6 days/week, combo of weights and cardio.

    I was 220lbs at my highest weight @ 20 yrs old, dropped that to 140-ish within a year and have never weighed more than 148lbs over the past 18 years. 142-145lbs is what I tend to sit at with not gym/weight training.

    Everyone has different goals and different body types, don`t sweat what others are doing!

    Starting weight- 228
    CW- 224
    GW- I'm starting at a goal of 198 (onederland), and we'll see how I look/feel at that point for how much more to lose.
    Exercise- I switch it up each day...every other day I do cardio for about 30 minutes, and the opposite ones I do weights/strength training for about 30 minutes. I rest two days of the week.
    Weight loss per week- 1.5 pounds
    Calories: MFP has me set at about 1750...I waver a bit from that, going higher or lower on some days, eating my exercise calories some days and not others, etc.
    My goals are to lower my body fat, gain more muscle, and look better in clothes in smaller sizes.
