    7. what's your goal weight? 105-110, doesn't matter though as I just want my body fat down and it's going down! YAY! I can see my muscles.

    Hello! What's this for, is it just research, general interest?

    Anyway,
    1. I'm 5'1
    2. I've just turned the big 30, ouch! It sneaked up on me.
    3. 132lbs
    4. 1,500
    5. 1,200 (bit of a guess)
    6. I haven't started to lose yet but I think I was doing too much strength training and not enough cardio so I'm upping the cardio and will see how that goes. However I've got some health problems and they keep getting in the way of my comittment to exercise, I'll be doing great and doing at least 5 days a week for a few weeks and then something will happen and I'll have to have a 2 week break, just the other week my ribcage became inflamed for no reason and I had to stop. Getting back into it on Monday though.
    7. I'd like to lose about 20lbs, then see if I need to lose any more.

    Thank you!! Not really trying to lose--I had a scale blip and I did 4 weeks at a small deficit to correct it. I dont really want to go lower though--to me it should be about the mirror NOT the scale. I am bigger than I was 1.5 years ago but honestly I think I look better now with more nuscle. If I lost 6 pounds to get back to that weight I'd surely be unhealthy or it would be nuscle loss. Not good.

    7. what's your goal weight? Would like to get down to 122-124 eventually but not stressing about it for now, working on gaining muscle

    1. how tall are you? 5' 1.5"
    2. how old are you? 32 with a almost 3 yr old
    3. how much do you weigh? 210 lbs
    4. how many gross calories do you eat? 800 (I'm doing Dr. Bernstein though, so don't go by me)
    5. how many net calories do you eat? I don't know what that means
    6. are you still losing? (if so, how fast) On this medically supervised program, I'm losing about 4 lbs a week, not accounting for my period hormonal flux that tends to set me back a pound or two that one week.
    7. what's your goal weight? 127

    I'm probably not the person to be emulating here, as I'm doing a highly intense strength training regime since January 1st on top of this REALLY strict ketosis diet for the last 2 weeks. It's hard, but it's working wonders for me. And I freely admit that I have a heck of a lot more weight to lose than you do, so my program is naturally gonna be a heck of a lot different than yours, hon.

    But as an elite member of the untall, I simply HAD to weigh in on this thread (no pun intended)

    Just as a sidenote though, if you're looking to lose another couple of pounds, then it's all good, but in my humble opinion, you already look 'fit and sexy'. Don't underestimate yourself, you're beautiful!

    1. how tall are you? 5 ft 2

    5. how many net calories do you eat? I don't pay attention to any of that.

    6. are you still losing? Yes losing bodyfat and inches, which is my concern.

    7. what's your goal weight? No goal weight...my goal is to gain more muscle and definition.

  • jeanine..sorry. this is going badly. I wasn't criticizing your plan at all. I just wanted to understand your method of using it because some people go several days up and then several days down...like 1200/1200/1200/2000/2000/1200/1200 and others just do down/up/down/up in an alternating fashion. So i wanted to know your method. I do want other perspectives and to know what works for people.

    I just didn't want you to think that I wanted to do it .Sorry if it came across as snappy or anything. It wasn't my intent.

    I REALLY appreciate this reply as I didn't get a good vibe. The week schedule I gave as the example is the chart I go by. Personally I LOVE it and it worksso well fo rme and a few other friends i know that are trying it.


    Jeanine - THANK YOU for offering this information! I just checked it out and am going to try it as I have hit a little bit of a plateau and actually think may not eating enough calories.
    Thanks to both of you for pursuing the conversation to such an encouraging end! Happy eating! :-)
