Mini Challenge: 10 pounds down by Easter
Replies
-
I'd love to join even though I'm late to the party! Ultimately I'd like to lose around 8-10 pounds from what I'm at now, which is a bit much between now and Easter, so I'd be happy with 5.
Weight at start of challenge (2/14): 122.2
2/22: 126.2
3/1: 125.4
Today: 121.8
Easter: 117
I've had a lot of fluctuations, which is normal for someone as short as I am. I recalculated my TDEE today, and it's around 1400-1500 Going to have to revamp my meals a bit, as I've been working with 1600. Any other shorties out there who struggle with small calorie numbers?3 -

I feel you. I'm 5'2 as well and though I have a lot more to lose than you I generally keep to 1100-1200....very very rarely do i go over that and a lot of times with exercise i net way under. I know people will argue that's not healthy but I'm losing steadily at 1-2 lbs (sometimes less, sometimes a bit more depending on TOM) per week with 70ish left to go so for me it works. I have never been able to eat a lot of calories and the older I get the more strict I have to be with it. Oh to be another 2 or 3 inches taller so I could eat a bit more. Ah well it is what it is.1 -

I'll join in too.
Starting weight: ~240lbs (will check the scale for sure)
Goal: ~230lbs by Easter
I checked the scale on Friday and I was 225.6 - wahoooooo!
Ok, I will count that as my starting weight. Win/Win for me either way.
New goal: 215lbs by Easter2 -
2012 I joined MFP and was working out A LOT! I made it all the way down to 199 (from 264), but settled in at about 210 looking and feeling better than I ever have. Life happens, curveballs are thrown, and my health is the first thing to take a backseat. So, I am back by necessity, but I'm not super jazzed about having to start over. It is what it is!
I will use this challenge to jump-start my motivation to return to more fitness, better nutrition, and overall wellness.
02/21/2019: Initial weight (first check-in since 2015) =254
03/06/2019: Today's weight and Challenge starting weight = 249.2
Challenge goal weight = 239 on 4/21/2019

I actually flipped over to maintenance clories since I'm having some less than pleasant side effects from giving blood...so probably another week, possibly two at this level depending on how I feel...I definitely won't lose the whole 10 lbs but I do want to keep tracking.2 -

Feeling pretty discouraged today, hardly budged on the scale I didnt really workout much this week, it was quite busy. Guessing that's why. Ughhh.2 -

This week went a lot better and I’m basically back on track. Less wine and less snacking is my win for the week!

It's Lent, so I think I'll join! My progress might not hit the 10 pounds, but at this point any progress would be good!
