I am running 3-4 times a week in training for my first 5k. It is on April 21. Love My fitness pal is has helped me loose so much weight. I am trying hard to keep it a healthy loss at about 1 pound per week. I try my best to eat back all my exercise calories however this is a new change for me, I had been working out and not eating back, but I try to now simply because I am doing so much more and I need it so much more now to fuel my body. I feel it the next day if I don't eat enough the night before.Love to find all the shorter gals like me!

Excercise: 6-7 days/week, currently doing weight training/cardio with ChaLean Extreme (have done P90X and lost 10 lbs with that, but gained a few back during the big holidays).

CALORIES: I use a BodyMedia Arm Band, and my goal is to consistently have a calorie deficit of 1000 calories per day, so my intake changes daily according to my activity, or lack there of, whatever the case may be.

SW: 190

CW: 185

UGW: 130-140( i really just wanna wear a size 6/8 pants again lol)

I dont eat my exercise calories because i havnt been hungry to lol. But i work out every other day and i do 45-60mins of cardio and i rotate working out my upper body and lower body. im just starting this new lifestyle and last week(my 1st week) i lost a little over 4 lbs. I drink 80-100 oz of water a day and i also drink green tea(sometimes plain black tea) 2-3x a day. So far i feel like i am doing everything right but maybe when i get to the 10-15lb mark in weight loss, i can work out more often,( i have a knee injury and i have to slowly increase my workouts so it doesnt flair up :] ).

I would LOVE to find my twin!! and anyone who wants to feel free to add me the more support we can provide for eachother the better!!!

HI Im 40 and 5'3"

Starting weight 260
Current weight 215
Goal weight 130
Dream goal weight 120.

MFP tells me to eat 1200 cal a day i ususlly fall just below that. I've been loosing fairly steady with 6-8 lbs a month. I keep it simple as possible. No breads, Pasta or rice. I do eat beans as my carb. I dont do soda of any kid and try to eat clean. No processed foods. I find that eating "clean" i get to eat more and dont feel guilty about it. I also dont eat my exercise calories im ususally not hungry for them.

sw 120 in am/123-124 at night
cw 114 in the am/116 at night
gw 112? I have no idea. Whatever feels right. I mostly just want to look athletic.

I'm a vegetarian that eats some fish (maybe once a week) so that makes things just a bit different. I recently changed my diet around to a very planned, protein focused diet. That being said, I eat 1000-1200ish calories a day. Under 1200 only on the days when I really can't fit any more in. I simply cannot eat my exercise calories it seems. Silly filling protein!

I exercise 6 days a week or so. no more than 30-60 min of cardio unless I'm feeling especially insane (went from not being able to run a mile my whole life to running 11 miles the other day in about 6 months! yay!) and, since my recent diet change, I've tried to incorporate more weight training. Seems to be working.

Hi Ladies!
I just found out I am 5'3, sounds silly but I always thought I was 5'5 .... I guess I just have a loud personality:P

I lost about 12-15 lbs (fluctuating always) on MFP since January, but I have been plateauing..ALOT. The scale is my worse enemy. I started off eating 1200 cals, then have bumped it up hoping it will help my plateau, it hasn't so far. My eating is pretty clean with exception of granola bars and 100 cal snacks (they are so convenient for a student!)I workout 6 days a week doing a combination of HIIT, Tabata and heavy lifting (its an athletic conditioning program). I recently got an HRM for my birthday so I know exactly what I burn per workout, I usually eat my exercise calories, but in light of my current lack of weight loss I have been considering only eating half. Any suggestions are more then welcome!!

ps. You guys rock! Congrats on the weight loss and BEST OF LUCK EVERYONE!

GW 115-120

I started out eating 1450 calories plus most of my exercise calories. The smaller I get the more I eat. I am now eating around 1700 on non-workout days and 2000-2100 on workout days. Cardio as a 15 minute warm-up before New rules of lifting program and then cardio immediately following it for however long I am motivated (usually about 10-50minutes). I average around 4 days of working out a week.

I am trying to eat between 1400-1800 calories a day depending on my workout for the day, but my progress seems to be slowing down. I am doing the P90X program, so I am strength training 3 days a week, 1 day of Yoga, and 2 days cardio. How long did it take for you to drop your weight? I'm curious because you have a similar build, and I like that you are eating so much and still losing.

Hi everyone! This is my first post! Congrats to everyone doing so well!

I started in january and lost 11lbs but then I really plateaued at 150lbs. I was eating 1200cals a day and tried upping it a bit as everyone suggests, but there was no change, I even put back on 1lb. So I've now been eating around 1000 a day and have lost 3lbs. I exercise 6 days a week, playing sport twice a week and gym the other days and eat back the calories about half the time. I know everyone says you really shouldn't eat under 1200, and I've read lots of posts about it, but I've found it's the only way to get out of the plateau! Has anyone else had a similar experience? I was wondering as I'm short maybe I don't need to eat as many calories? I've also been focussing on the fat and making sure I'm under that, as in the past I've eaten 1200 a day but eaten bad foods with high fat content and didn't lose much.
