    You are welcome to add me if you'd like. I don't lift, but my calorie goal is 1440 per day and it takes everything I have to stay in that range.

    I eat 1640 right now, but I start the NROL4W weigth training program next week so I'll probably up it then. Super excited to learn to lift! I'll send you a friend invite.

    I'm above that. There is no way I can eat less than 1200. I'd starve. I'm about to begin Insanity for my second round and continue running (until I can run about 4 miles without any stopping). So 1200 cals is not for me. I love food too much :smile:

    Hi,

    You can add me. I strive for 1600 calories a day. I had tried 1200 and noticed that I wasn't near close to the nutrients that my body required. I don't lift. Right now I walk on the BowFlex treadclimber and do pilates dvds. I intend to start running soon, so will have to head to the local gym for the treadmill until the local weather permits outdoor run. I ran for 13 weeks in bootcamp 20 years ago, so this will be a challange to my middle age body...I hope to run a 5 K with my sister late next fall (it will be a girls trip) Just started getting fit about a month ago, then got sidelined with a sprained lower leg(slip on ice) followed by the flu...back at it now.

    Currently reading "Nutrition for Dummies" finding it very interesting.

    Hey! I eat from 1500-1900 usually. I love weighted squats and dead lifts the most out of all my weight training. I am starting to build my own gym in my house, which I am excited for.

    Feel free to add me!

    I have my limit set at 2022, but usually eat anywhere from 1700ish up to 2000.

    Was injured, and I'm just getting back into lifting, with a strong interest in powerlifting.

    Feel free to add me! :-)

    They have me at 2020. After about 1700 I'm not really hungry but it's working.

    I eat around 1800 without exercise and then on days that I usually exercise. I will burn between 3400-4100 calories at the gym.

    So if I do that.. I usually just pig out for the day.

    I haven't started weight lifting but that will start tomorrow when I get to the gym.

    I am usually there for 4-6 hours a day. I am pretty dedicated.

    My calorie goal is currently set to 1770 cals a day as I am aiming for a slow loss of 1lb a week. I also eat back about 50% of my exercise calories if I am hungry. I also want to set a good example of eating for my son - I don't want to be a Mum that is constantly "on a diet" and "can't eat this or that" and eats differently than the rest of the family. Besides I get grouchy when I don't eat!
    I am hoping to start and lift heavy as I need to ensure that I build muscle while losing weight (so I don't have to continually drop my calories lower and lower). I am having a friend that is a personal trainer come over in a few weeks to design a program for me.
    I don't have an open food diary. But feel free to add me if it sounds like I fit the bill :)

    I aim for 1800+ and am doing lifting mixed with plyo, HIIT, and short runs. Feel free to add me.

    I'm at my best in the 1800 range. I do cardio and weight training. Weight training mainly consists of kettlebell and deadlifting. When it gets warmer here in MN I'll re-start Insanity Asylum. I see like minded people on this thread. Anyone can add me if they like.
