    Awesome work Marie.

    100 grams of protein / day is great strategy.

    Thanks! I feel so much better eating more protein, not to mention I'm becoming addicted to banana protein smoothies :)

    That was a great motivator. I actually just got down to 185 today and I am (it sounds like) your height so seeing the before and after here... let's just say it lit a fire in my tuckus.

    I'm aiming for 150. We shall see how it goes. :)

    You look great and definitely inspired me...I am 5'9 as well and I weigh 186 and I started two weeks ago on this journey to get to 160or 155. This has given me the push I needed..

    Thanks again everyone! Ummm...tips and advice? What works for me might not work for everyone, but I (recently) upped my calories to my BMR (1,560 cals), eat back at least some exercise cals back, and am aiming for at least 100 grams of protein. I also try to focus on "clean" foods and not eat too much overly processed things. Although for breakfast today I ate a Lean Cuisine spinach pizza lol. I'm getting ready to start lifting heavy (just bought "New Rules of Lifting for Women") and have started jogging a bit too. I guess the best thing to do is play around with what you're doing until you find something you like and works for you, and then just keep doing it. Good luck everyone! Oh, feel free to add me too :happy:
