    1. Pounds lost:
    2. How long it took:
    3. How many calories you were eating a day:
    4. How many days a week you worked out:
    5. How many calories did you burn during your workout:
    1. 16.5lbs, at goal now
    2. 5-6 months
    3. I am not strictly tracking but cut out sugary drinks and reduced snacking. I guess I was netting around 1500 during the week. Weekends are probably higher because I don't pay attention then and eat what I want.
    4. Started with 3 days running and later on added 3 days weightlifting so 6times a week
    5. Not sure how much weight lifting burns but running is between 200-300cal

    I am 5.9 tall and didn't have a lot to loose which is why it took me longer. I am basically at my goal weight now and my current goal is body recomposition

    22 lbs
    8 months or so (I wanted to take it slow, not lose weight rapidly)
    1700 calories per day
    workouts; highly variable; gardening, farm work, haying, moving and stacking firewood, loading and unloading feed sacks and hay wagons, feeding and watering livestock, whatever it took to get the job done each day. Once in a while, 30 to 45 minutes on my elliptical machine, but mostly farm labor.

    1. Pounds lost:
    Over 100lbs. But I really don't care about the scale. I'm more interested in fat loss, LBM gains, and looking & feeling wonderful.
    2. How long it took:
    Not done. I figure I'll be working on building muscle by winter. Hopefully I will just keep on improving. At least, that is the plan. Why would I ever want to be "done?"
    3. How many calories you were eating a day:
    It varies. A lot.
    4. How many days a week you worked out:
    It varies.
    5. How many calories did you burn during your workout:
    Don't know & don't care. There really aren't accurate methods of figuring this. Add to that the fact that it is much more complicated than calories in, calories out. But, I'm definitely doing it right despite all that. lol...

    4. How many days a week you worked out: 4-7, really varied on how busy my weeks were...
