    Your weight is not that high and therefore you won't lose every week. I promise, if you stick to it, you will reach your goal. And if you don't lose 5 pounds in one month, it's okay-dokay! You will get there :)

    Just for fun: What fitness event are you going to accomplish this month? I've been on MFP and going to the gym for 1 week, so I plan on accomplishing a month of putting consistant effort into both of these and seeing some good results when I look in the mirror. edit: I changed the fitness event(s); I'm doing South Beach Diet instead of MFP and started 30 DS on my off days from the gym.

    I had my settings on sedentary, which was giving me 1220 calories a day, but I have been losing faster than the 1 lb a week I set it for. I changed my activity level to lightly sedentary and it's now giving me 1290 calories/day. This makes me a little nervous because it seems like a lot more, but I will try it out this week and see if it's the right amount of calories for me. Also there have been days where I've gone a thousand calories over since I started using MFP and I'm still losing so 70 more calories each day really isn't a lot more hahah
