    I am 56 years old. 5'11" and weigh 179. My goal weight is 163. As you get older, it gets harder! Some days I eat alot and some days not. It is very hard to be consistent, but I strive for about 1400-1500 calories per day.

    I am 5'9"
    44 years old in real years. In Mom years, I'm over 900 years old.
    I'm currently at 196 pounds.
    My GOAL is 155. Anything less than that would be a huge bonus.
    My calorie goal is 1510 per day which I've done to maintain...until today. Bad diet day, but that'll happen. I'll burn it tomorrow.
    I usually burn about 500 calories doing martial arts or 200 plus doing the treadmill, it depends on the day.

    I am 5'7 and weigh in the high 150's. I don't know the exact number because it fluctuates, but my goal is 135. My calorie allowance is at 1200 but I may change that (Im just starting out so I may experiment and see what is most realistic for me). I want to be at 135 by May.

    GW: 125-128

    Ordinarily I work out five or six times a week and burn ~500 calories, but I haven't been able to lately, so am trying to eat < 1200 calories to make up for being sedentary. I'm sure it's killing my metabolism, but dgaf.
