    Height: 5'7"
    Starting weight: 196lbs
    Current Weight 150.8lbs
    Goal Weight: 135lbs (but only because I just realized after all these years that I have a tiny frame)
    Age: 30
    Calorie goal: 1760

    As far as what I burn, right now I'm on crutches after knee surgery, so not much. When I'm running regularly, I'm burning 600-1000 calories per run (between 5-13 miles). I eat almost all of it back, too, in calorie dense nuts and fruits, lean meats, lots of veggies, and delicious (naughty) coffee creamer. I've lost 45lbs.

    Calories: I'm "allowed' 2200 but never eat that much. I normally stay about 1950

    Don't track how many calories I burn during exercise.

    Goals: To be happy with myself for once in my life!

    Height: 5'9.5"
    Starting weight: 245lbs
    Current Weight 239lbs
    Goal Weight: 154lbs (but will reevaluate after I get there)
    Age: 41
    Calorie goal: 2000

    Used the TDEE, BMI & BMR advise from another member (found link on MFP) advises to set goal as TDEE - 20% and not to "eat back" excersise. Heavy exercise day eat more.

    I walk briskly every lunch time for 1/2hr, when weather better will be plying golf at least once a week, and about to buy bike to take up cycling again.

    MFP had me at 1940 and I was eating back cals, only started properly 2 weeks ago and looking to see how this works out.

    Goal to feel better about me by taking control of my eating and body

    I am trying to shake my baby weight! Only going for a pound a week. Current intake is 1400/1500 cals and I work full time in an active job, and spend the rest of my time running after a 16 month old! So have zero idea of how many cals I burn.

    CW 153
    GW 125
    Calories 1240 - 1364 (Basically between what MFP says and what TDEE-20 says)
    No exercise. I have difficulty with cardio due to a lung disease so when I walk a lot when I am not at work or something I do not eat those calories back.

    Age:29
    Height: 5'9"
    Start weight: 217 (lost 14 before MFP, so technically 203)
    Goal Weight: 160lbs
    Current: 175lbs
    Calories: 1405 (i started at 1200, but i found that once i hit a plateau, if i increase my calories, my body would rev up again and loose pounds!)


    I work out 5-6 times a week and burn anywhere between 350 (when only toning or lifting) to 600 (when doing cardio) calories.

    Anyone have any tips for these last 15 lbs that seem to want to stick with me!?!!? Need work-out tips for tummy/abs. I've been doing Zumba since January and I've seen a drastic improvement! I swear by it! But now my body has yet again hit a plateau....help!
