Hi,

Does any one have any success pics for doing this program or if not can you tell me how much you left after completing the 90 days :) Also 1200cals seems awfully low, did anyone eat more then that and still had success?

    Id like to see success pics too. MFP originally had my cals at 12something but I had my weekly weight loss goal at 2 lbs per week. I switched it to 1 1/2 lbs a week and it upped my cals to 1580. I've only been eating like this for about 3 days so Im not sure about how well it is working so far. I will say I havent gained weight like I thought I would. Ill know for sure Monday morning.

    you got that backwards. lol you dont want to dip below your BMR. i made that mistake and while i lost a ton of weight, i also lost a ton of hair! it just now starting to level off now that i've been eating at or above BMR for 2 months.

    you look awesome sweetd_cali!!!! I can't wait to get mine in the mail! I read in your blog that you don't do the diet. How are you doing your diet?

    Knobles, I started off doing the meal plan but it just wasn't sustainable for my lifestyle and family demands. Honestly I just don't eat or buy a lot of the ingredients involved. I was using my BMR calories (1450) as my goal, but constantly felt like I was hungry, especially after workouts.I have been plateauing weight-wise all of Phase 2.

    Now I've started Phase 3, I've been reading up on Eat More to Weigh Less, whose main idea is if you have a smaller calorie eaten to burned deficit, it will be a more sustainable weight lostt. This program uses the BMR and TDEE (Total Daily Energy Expenditure) numbers to set a more realistic (for me, long term) calorie goal. My calorie goal is now 20% less than my TDEE (aka my cut rate) at 1685. I won't "eat" my exercise calories, since it's a given I'll do it and that's built in to my cut rate.

    Search for the "Graduates" thread on here... There are several of us that posted there before it dropped off...
