We can do this! Im ready for this 90 days to be up so I can see the progress already!0

It is 6 pm and everything seams to go well! I am little bit light headed but I guess I'll get better day after another!
Breakfast: 1 scope of protein powder 18 g of protein and 100 calories!
Snack: a lot of veggies (tomato, cucumber, and spinach
Exercising: fast walk for 15 mins
Lunch: lahmacun - yummy Turkish kind of thin pizza! Google the word! + lettuce + shredded carrots + coke zero cane + lentil soup!
Exercising: slow walk for 15 mins

SW: 267
GW: 150
I'm doing 90% vegetables and 10% lean protein and water as my only beverage. I consume lots of salad and clean soup.
Going hard these 90 days. I made a vow today before being introduced to this group to do 60 days. An additional 30 will only do good.
My exercise will be zero resistance (because I bulk/gain muscle very rapidly) I'm a Mesomorph.
Good Luck everyone and may God be with us all!!! We will do this and succeed. Think positive thoughts and envision where you want to be and look like in 90 days--when you utilize this you will reach it!!!

Happy to be here and see all the support. We all need it. Had a lovely surprise when I stepped on the scale this week....a little lost. Lots to go, but I'm finding MFP so awesome for logging food intake.
Wishing everyone the very best!!0 -
WOW I just did one of those youtube walk fit work outs, that is no joke - great sweat and burn, thanks for the link. Now any idea what to put that under for a workout entry?My back up plan for exercise is:

Thanks!0 -
Hi everyone, sorry delayed post internet issues. Wishing you all happy healthy starts.
I have been with you all in the actual and started my 1300 calories a day on mon 10th.
My exercise is low due to time restrictions but I'm swimming 45 mins every other day
And walking for 15 mins on a circuit in my place of work which includes stairs the days in between.
Weekends will be walking also. I feel like weight shifting ill weigh once a week. Again good luck all xx0 -
....have a bit of a tummy bug today, so food intake was not great (lost most of it). Tomorrow is another day. Finding breakfast is the hardest meal to make myself eat. Any suggestions?0
-
Not sure how I did it but I have worked out a total of 11 hours this week, isn't that crazy? Eating really good also best of all, I am not fighting that hunger feeling so that means I am eating enough 0

Good job, everyone. I'm starting to realize how big a calorie deficit I'm going to have to run to hit this goal! I'm going to have to seriously increase my exercise to do this.
Did great Monday and today (Wed.) with my eating goals; fell apart on Tuesday. I think I ate the wrong thing for breakfast and it spiked my blood sugar, which sets me on a wobbly blood sugar path for the whole day. I ate way too much, but still (barely) less than I expended, according to fit bit and MFP.
Mousie, I wonder if you really have to eat breakfast, or if that is just a myth. My 12 year old does better without breakfast, eats a small lunch, then really eats after school. That's just the way her body likes it. I find I do better with a late-ish breakfast. I get up at 7 but don't eat until 9:30 or so.0 -

Thanks!
I'm glad you liked it! Depend on how many minuets you finished! For example: if you finished the 45 mins for 3 miles! Log it as 15 min 3.0 mp walk and 15 min 4.0 mp walk and the other 15 count it as warm up so another 15 mins 3.0 mp!0 -

Yes it is awesome! Happy to be here and see all the support. We all need it. Had a lovely surprise when I stepped on the scale this week....a little lost. Lots to go, but I'm finding MFP so awesome for logging food intake.

Welcome and good luck to you too!
Tell me how many calories you plan to eat for breakfast? what kind of food you don't like?....have a bit of a tummy bug today, so food intake was not great (lost most of it). Tomorrow is another day. Finding breakfast is the hardest meal to make myself eat. Any suggestions?
For me, I love dairy products but not full fat because it will have this strong taste that I hate!
Also, I LOVE EGGs! I can eat it almost anyway except the well done type!
Bread
love any type and eat a piece at least!
To make it easier for your buy some kind of cheese! like a pack of the triangle cheese (don't know what we called it lol)
Buy a coffee or tea maker! and always let you have kind of veggies or fruits to east some!
I hope that helps!0 -
You did amazing! Good job!Not sure how I did it but I have worked out a total of 11 hours this week, isn't that crazy? Eating really good also best of all, I am not fighting that hunger feeling so that means I am eating enough
As long as you are not hungry then it is enough for you!
I bet if you weigh yourself you'll find that you lost at least 2 lbs
Good luck dear!0 -

Thank you for letting me in!
My stats:
36 years old
SW 325 lbs
GW 175 lbs
I am planning on eating about 1850 calories plus my exercise calories. I have tried losing weight before and end up quitting because I cut back too many calories and get stinking hungry. This time, I'm in it for the longhaul and that means, for me at least, eating enough calories to make this a permanent change.
I am going to be exercising 2 hours 3 times a week and 1 hour 3 times a week with one day off per week.0 -
I know I'm a bit late starting this group but I only joined MFP a few days ago and this looks perfect for me!
My plan was to loose 30lbs before my holiday which is in 93 days!
SW: 190lbs
My plan was to eat 1200 calories a day and do something active everyday.
One thing I'm not sure about is should I be eating back the calories that I have burned? and should I be making sure I eat at least 1200 calories?
I have very weak will power so I need help and advice to get me to my goal!0 -
So happy I found this challenge I hope it will keep me accountable, I know I am a few days late.
My Stats:
23 yrs old
SW: 280
CW: 260

I working on adding in more cardio but still doing weight training0 -
My goal is to lose total of 30 lbs. I want to do it slowly, maybe 1 to 2 lbs a week. I started my 1200 calorie diet yesterday.
today is my 2nd day and I lost 2 lbs. I am sure that that is only water.I plan to workout at lest 3 to 5 times a week for an hour.
I must say good luck to all!0 -
