any SHORT girls with LOTS to loose??

I am 5'1 and would like to lose about 65. I need to lose more but 65 i would be curvy and fabulous :glasses:

I'm a shorty at 4'11" but I don't have too much to lose in the grand scheme of things (20lbs). I just seem to be having trouble getting started.

5'1... Started at 177, I'm at 163.5, 4.3inches down... with about 36lbs to go. I started at 50lbs to lose, felt impossible.

I only ate clean for the first few weeks. I slowly started going back to "normal." I started out about 90/10 clean, and then went down to 80/20... Right now I'm around 60/40... My goal is around 70/30 clean eating... (no processed foods, packaged foods, etc.. no cans, boxed, frozen or fast food... only lean meats, good fats, complex carbs, etc). Just been trying to eat things in their natural state. I've done that for the past 3 months, and lost 13.5lbs. Now, I've started working out to try to boost my weight loss! I also use chocolate milk for sugar and caffeine lol. I started out on the special k diet and lost 3 inches and almost 10lbs. It works... I still eat the cereal and the snacks... I'm going to probably get more protein shakes.... I don't eat enough or frequently enough.

Eat half your weight in protein.
Eat every 3-4 hours.
Eat 5-6 SMALL meals a day.
Portion is important.
Drink half your weight in water, every day.
Eat 33/33/33 with GOOD carbs/LEAN protein/GOOD fat.
Fat free everything isn't the key.
Cutting carbs alone isn't key - what you eat is important.
Starving yourself doesn't work.
Never be hungry!
NEVER be full!
Just because you have 2,000 calories to eat, doesn't mean you eat whatever you want.
If you work out, eat more.
Eat protein right after a workout to repair muscle.
If you don't want to bulk up, only do a warm-up jog before lifting and resistance training, and save the run for after.
You can't get rid of a pooch from a workout, it's all in what you eat.
Use the Harris Benedict equation to actually see how many calories you need!
Read how much to cut your calories.
Try to eat on a bell curve to keep your metabolism adjusting. (I eat from 1100 calories up to 1700 (mycheatmeal) and back down to 1100.) My 1100 is close to a fast... water, and lots of veggies.

*Eat clean*Train mean*Get lean*



GIRLS - IT'S ALL ABOUT BABY STEPS!!!

Fast food? - Don't give in and say well since it's McDonalds, might as well enjoy it - still make smart decisions.... Sweet tea or soda? Choose sweet tea... Rice? - brown rice. Pasta? Wheat or veggie pasta! Hamburger? Use ground turkey instead.... Eggs, egg whites... milk, satin. I use baby steps. You drink soda? Cut it down... one a day, one a week, one a month.
