    26 pounds down in 3 months - 215 to 189 (PICS)

    edited November 2024 in Success Stories
    I eat between 1000-1300 calories a day and burn 500-700 calories 4-5 times a week. I usually do 40 minutes cardio (treadmill, elliptical or stairmaster) and 20 minute weights.
    My goal by the end of 2015 is to have a 50 pound loss, I am half way there and it is only getting harder, but I am determined! (btw, I'm 5'5)

      I can notice a big difference in my tummy & booty area. :smiley: I was extremely bloated starting out since I hardly drank any water and ate a lot of salty chips.

      Unless you are being medically supervised, you should not be eating < 1200 calories a day. There are too many potential health risks associated with extreme low intake diets, and you could do irreparable damage.

      I don't starve myself. I never get to a point where I feel weak.(which I have done in the past but quickly stopped since I knew It wouldn't help me in the long run) I know my body and If I feel hungry, I will eat! :)

      Congrats! Your doing great. I can really see a difference.

      You look great! And 1000 -1300 isn't bad...as long as its not junk food you can still get all your nutrients met on that many calories...I too stick between 1000-1200 some days even less...not intentionally... But yes some days less...and my calorie goal IS set by my doc.....carry on as long as you feel good...cuz you look great!
