    Everyone looks great!! I needed to see this thread today, was feeling frustrated with my progress. Keep up the awesome work! And thanks for the motivation! :flowerforyou:
    Keep track of those calories!!!

    Women: multiply your goal weight by 10.

    Men: Multiply your goal weight by 11.

    This number will be your DAILY CALORIC INTAKE to MAINTAIN that GOAL WEIGHT.

    So, if I want to be 160lbs, 160 x 11 = 1760 calories per day. But I am targeting 1200 per day NET calories to get this rolling a little faster. Hope this make sense.
    No, sorry--it doesn't make sense. This round, I started in January at 170, so by this would have needed 1700 calories per day to maintain that. My daily net goal is 1760, and I've lost 11 pounds so far. Theoretically, I would be maintaining at 1590 calories per day. I'm not. I'm still losing.

    Her secret was 1200 cals a day. Not trying to be mean but that's what I read in her other thread. A great look but not a good example for long and sustained loss

    This is my favorite part of MFP. You all are huge inspirations and a constant reminder that this is possible, I can do it, and that it is so so so worth it.

    I agree that everyone has individual goals and my earlier post was not meant to shove numbers down anyone's throats. It is a rule of thumb my physician gave me and from other medical journals I read. it is what I used and it worked for me as I can finally put numbers to food and exercise. When I get asked, "What's your secret?", I simply tell them I created a calorie deficit and emphasized the importance of eating fruits and vegetables. The numbers I gave before were for weight loss. To maintain, thats a whole different animal.

    I think the bottom line in general is you've got to make a change and by creating a calorie deficit the pounds will come off.

    Good luck.

    First picture is when I was at my heaviest at 309. Second picture I am at 206, sorry I cut my head off, but I tried on that dress without thinking I would actually get into it and I had some bed head going on! :) I didn't think I was going to fit into it. The last time I wore it was in the 80's (and of course it is now back in style). The last is just a face progression 309 down to 199

    There are many things to consider. Usually 1,200 is a bad idea. It's really aout your ratio of deficit to your TDEE> how big is your cut? Some people just have a really low TDEE and they can do 1,200 calories without consequences. We need more information from her. She might even have thyroid issues as well.

    I agree and I am curious myself. I just find it kind of depressing that someone can post how they only ate 1200 (netting less than that) at 180lbs, get cut abs when that won't work for 80% of us. If one can mention they ate 1200, they can also mention info such as TDEE, thyroid which she was asked multiple times in a different thread but never answered. I await her answer because she may very well have a thyroid issue in which I would continue to congratulate her on her success (but also recommend she mentions that so people who are healthy know too)
