    Hey!
    I am 5"4. I haven't weighed in a while as I'm too scared too, but was in the 180s last time I did!
    My goal is always 140lb but I'm really struggling to shift any weight! I would love to be between 140 and 154 by Christmas as I'm going on holiday!!

    My goal is the same - I'd love to be 140 by Christmas, but I'd be really happy with 150!

    I plan to drink lots of water, reduce my carbs, eat more fruit, veggies and protein. I plan to walk daily and to do Leslie Sansone's Walk Away the Pounds and some Tae Bo- both on Utube

    I like her walking videos! I do them in my living room when it's cold out, or if I want to get a quick walk in!

    Ok, I weighed in this morning. I'm up a pound overall, and really stuck, so this will help keep me motivated.
    Overall SW - 205
    Weight today - 177
    End of Year Goal - 140 would be awesome, but 150 would be great, too!

    Hi Doggerland and welcome! How do you log Walk away the Pounds, calories/walking or aerobics? Thanks!

    I'm not very diligent about logging my exercise on MFP. If I did though, I'd look at the duration of the walk, then estimate if I felt like it was casual, fast, etc. I'm really not the best person to speak to logging workouts though :)

    I would like to be on the journey with you too. I just turned 50 last month, my weight is 163, height 5' 4". I had always been fit at topped the scale at 140. At the age of 42 I was diagnosed with breast cancer and was on meds for 5 years. The meds caused terrible joint pain, especially in my hips, knees and ankles. Slowly stopped running and the last few years I will start Turbofire only to quit after 5 weeks or so because the pain worsens. I started walking on 9/12 and go about 3 miles at lunch. Hopefully I will lose some weight and other workouts will be doable. Losing 30 lbs would be great, being consistent with being active would be even better. Today I started the 10 Day Green Smoothie Cleanse so I won't weigh again until 9/29 but I'll let you know how that goes.

    I'm in! 5'5" 201 this a.m. Have lost 34 lbs since January. I am stuck. Same weight for a month. 1000-1200 calories a day. Poor health and bad knee but still walk 3 xs a week. Any suggestions?

    Maybe you actually need to be eating more. I know it sounds crazy, but if you've plateaued, try eating like 1400 calories a day :)

    I'm 5'5", currently 174lb (down 21lb from June 2015). Definitely was stuck, and wasn't losing weight for a long while though. My aim is 1 stone/14lb down by Christmas (1lb per week sounds very doable, but in reality....!). After that, there's one more stone to lose (another 14lb, hopefully by May 2017 - my birthday). I know I could be gung-ho and try and push for 20+lb by Christmas, but 1lb a week is steady, and achievable.

    I was 175lb last week, so I'm 1lb down, even with my time of the month. My exercise schedule is:

    Spin class 2x/week
    Pilates 1x/week
    HIIT class 30 min 1-2x/week
    Gym (weights) 1-2x/week

    I'm working hard to keep this routine, so hopefully can get to Christmas healthier and slimmer!

    Hope this isn't tmi, but how much does everyone usually gain from TOM? I'm on day 1 of that and have gained 3-4 lbs. I have been logging everything perfectly!
