    5'7", down 20 from 192 at Christmas, age 47, and 1800 +/- a hundred on either side.

    Lift heavy 3-4 times a week and light cardio. Otherwise I am usually found driving a desk. :bigsmile:

    I was 5"1' and 179, I have been doing between 1200-1400 calories and work out 4-5 times a week. I have lost approx.49-51 lbs in 2 years. It took time and lots of hard work (spinning, running, biking ect) I feel the best I have in years. Once I hit my goal (about 10 -12 lbs to go) I plan on increasing my calories to about 1500. There were many months that I wouldnt lose much or any at all, then the next month I would lose 5-6. Just be patient. If you need support feel free to friend me.

    Was eating 2800.
    but i have an arrhythmia that started getting worse and eating makes me pretty sick so i dropped it to 1500, since i cant do mch of a workout either.
    now im feeling a little better so im going to start adding calories back a few hundred at a time.

    I saw my best performance at about 2700-2850

    Around 1400 net. I eat back my exercise calories so it could be as much as 1800 food calories if I have a good work out.
