    Right now I'm at 228 lbs, so I'll be looking for a decent picture to update this before and after. I eat, just a lot more sensibly than I used to! Around 1,900 calories... And I took up running! 5K's, 10K's and soon a 1/2 marathon on May 6th! I run between 50-60 miles per month.

    Like most everyone, I started here at 1200 because I wanted the weight GONE as soon as possible. That lasted for about a month before I realized that wasn't a good game plan. For the majority of my weight loss, I ate between 1350-1500 plus exercise calories, so typically between 1800-2000 total calories a day. For exercise, I run and strength train. I recently had to increase my calories to over 1800 net because I was still losing on maintenance!

    But what I find more amazing is that last time I tried to lose weight, and ate under 1000 calories a day, I looked a LOT different at my "goal weight."

    ^^This is what I was hoping to see when I clicked on this thread. This is a a great representation of what could be done with cardio alone vs a well-rounded exercise program! Thanks for posting!
    I couldn't agree more! Absolutely amazing and inspiring.
    My hero!
