I'm on a pseudo-hiatus... just walking and playing on the Wii.. because July 5th my husband and I are starting a new program we call the New Rules of Workout for Insane Zombie Survival (NROWFIZS). LOL. (https://spreadsheets.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0ArfRqP97R5DsdG9pY3BLRm5MVmRzUkgyTWFxNUMtM3c&hl=en_US&authkey=CPnY358G)
By the end of it we should be able to outrun or bash in the head of any zombies when the Zompocalypse arrives. :bigsmile:0 -
I'm 5'2 and I wanna lose 15 lbs more..0

OHH me me! I am 5/1. I started at 220, now I'm currently between 160 and 162. My goal weight is 135. So I'd really like to lose between 20 and 25 pounds. I was on Weight watchers for about 2 years but found MFP which is free so I cancelled my weight watchers. I am currently doing c25k and going to start the 30 day shred next week.0

5'3" and working to lose about 14 lbs. I would love to connect to people in a similar situation and see what you've been doing to reach your goals0

Lovelystrumpet, we are the same height, have both lost 2 lbs, started at about the same weight, and have the same weight goal of 118 lbs. I will be following your progress. Good luck.0

I'm 4'9" apparently. I used to be 4'11" since I was 13 until a few months ago...I caught very sick and shrunk in height...not in weight though lol. I want to lose 20ish pounds.

I play dance dance revolution for exercise. It's the only thing that doesn't seem like a horrible chore.0

I am doing the 30 day shred right now. I am on level 2- day 3. I try to also do some pilates every week and I walk for about 40-60 minutes every day. I have a horrible cold right now so I am suffering through every type of exercise- my nose is totally stuffed!!! LOL0

So what are y'alls calories per day set at? I am at 1200, on days that I don't work out I try to stick to that -- on days I do I give myself more wiggle room and eat back some of my exercise calories (so I am more in the 1300-1400 range). A lot of people on the boards claim that is too low, but for someone our size/weight trying to lose less pounds...it seems about right. What do y'all think?0

I'm set at 1400 base, which goes up with exercise of course. My BodyBugg says I average 1900 calories burned on non-workout days going up to 2500 on high activity days (exercise plus cleaning house/yardwork/etc.). I eat back all of my exercise calories because I do have the BodyBugg to give me a very accurate estimate of how much I burned.
edit to add: *Note* I'll be reducing my deficit to 250/day in another 1-1.5 lbs (under 160) so that base number will actually go up soon.0 -

I totally forgot about that game! Great idea!0 -

It depends on long I exercise and how many cals I burn that day. I try to eat back about half of my exercise cals which generally creates a deficit (including what MFP is already deducting) of around 500 give or take. My base amount of cals is 1200. I don't think 1300 - 1400 is too low. It depends on how many you burned that day though too. We definitely need to reduce our intake due to our reduced heights!0
