I'm 30 years old. Just had a baby 3 months ago I went from 203lbs when I first had her to 172lbs now. I am still looking to loose another 22lbs. I get to the gym when I can with a new baby could be once a week to 3 or 4x a week. Looking to befriend others to share diaries to get other food options. I'm currently at 1600 calories a day. With macros 181g carbs 101g protein 54g fat.

    I'm 5'8" and about 195. I started MPF about 1 1/2 months ago and started at 205. I'm looking to get down to 145-155. (I'm 45 so metabolism is def slowed down)

    I think my current calories are 1480. Not sure about my macros...I just took whatever MFP gave me. I'd love to share diaries. I definitely need new food ideas! I'll send you a friend request

    I am 42 years old - my babies are 20 yrs and 18 yrs old LOL
    5'7
    167 lbs (I started with MFP about 175ish in 2013. And I have gotten as low as 153 lbs.)
    I am carb cycling for the next month or so. 3 low carb days with 1 high carb day. But my diary is open and I log my food about 95% of the time.
    I also go to the gym about 5-6 days a week. My program consists of a combo of weight training and cardio. When my kids were younger I completed all of my workouts at home.

    Good luck and enjoy the fitjourney :wink:

    I just checked out your food diary and it looks like you shop at Aldi's? I have heard great things about them. They just opened some in my area of Virginia. I'm going to drop in tomorrow! What are some of your favorite items there?

    I actually just went there for the first time. For whatever reason my boyfriend doesn't like to shop there lol. But I like some of their fit and active products like the wheat tortillas and I got the salsa as well. A few other things low fat cottage cheese I got frozen salmon and other fish which was a really good price!!! And I got unsweetened almond milk as well. I don't get everything there I usually go to 2 different stores sometimes 3. Hope this helped oh I also got some frozen turkey burgers!!
