    I'm 5'4" and age 59

    SW 260 (started 10/7/2013)
    CW 227
    GW 127

    I eat 1200-1300 calories per day and most of my exercise is walking. I did have a personal trainer for 3 sessions, but decided to go it on my own. I hope to start weight training soon because I need to build muscle.

    I try to lose 10 lbs/month, but I know that as I get closer to my goal weight that will be a lot harder to do, so I am focusing on increasing my exercise time and level now.

    you can do it, slowly,. I feel the same when I was just starting too, but then you get motivated as you see the pounds melt/shed off and it will become an addiction and something that will push you to continue and not give up. adding you. :)

    Since I don't weigh daily, weekly, only once a month, I believe I reached my current weight after 7 months. I started last May 2013 and 118lbs is my weight last dec 2013. :)

    Hello,
    I am kind of new in this site. I was going thru all these posts and noticed yours. Really impressed with your stats.
    I am 5'5"" and CW 131. My goal weight is 115 lbs which I used to be. I would really appreciate if you can suggest me how I should go about it. Currently I am doing the 30Day shred for last two weeks, on my 12th day, and walking 45 min uphill downhill every morning. Would you my sharing what you did to reach your current weight? Once again, you have done great

    Day 3 level 2:
    I did morning cardio which is 50 min of walking uphill downhill. Afternoon, when I attempted to get my 30DS done, I could not give my best today. Started feeling really dizzy after I was half way to the first circuit. Had literally lie down on my mat for 10 min or so. Got up and started where I left of. But could not do the workout as i do everyday. Felt light headed, so,I just listened to my body and tried to attempt each segment but could not finish it giving my best. No idea why I felt this way. Did not have a good night sleep last night.... Could this be for that??!!!???!!!
