    I eat anywhere from 1300-1600 calories. I eat back my exercise calories most of the time.

    Low carb/high fat/moderate protein is how I keep my weight in check.

    Hey all!
    I'm 5'2.
    My starting weight when I joined was 223.8 (My highest non-pregnancy weight was 247 about a year and a half ago)
    Current weight is 215.2
    My ultimate goal is 135.

    We can do this! It's inspiring to see so many of you having success. I can't wait to feel as wonderful as all of you!

    Oh, feel free to add me as a buddy. I need all the help I can get!

    I was referred to a great website fat2fit to figure out how many calories to eat per day based on my own statistics. It's really easy, you just need to take measurements and indicate your activity level. I used the Military Version. I have seen it referenced in several threads so I know lots of people are using it. Good to take your measurements anyway, lots more happening in inches than pounds! It's a good place to start to figure out basic calorie needs. Good luck to everyone!!!

    Nothing special, I started January 4th of this year. I eat within the nutrition goals that MFP set and I workout when I can. I'm planning on starting 30DS tomorrow and seeing how far I can get with it.

    Today is my last day at 1200 calories as I don't want to lose anymore weight but put on more muscle. I put on those 13 pounds in the last 2 years due to infertility drugs and comfort eating and am scared to death to start again for fear of weight gain. Hoping this time around I can control that aspect of it. Workout 6 days a week, 3 of those marathon training days and lift 4 days a week so I need my calories! Definetly ate back most of exercise calories. Don't know what to think of the 400 cal increase tomorrow!

    GW: 125
    CW: 158

    I currently consume 1200-1400 calories a day, and that's without working out.
    I usually consume back the calories I gain from working out.
    I work full time, school part time, and workout roughly 5-6 days a week.
    Use the elliptical machine mostly, I pulled a calf muscle using those arc machines :(
    I strength train 2-3 days a week, one of those days doing a whole body strength, the other two doing upper or lower, depending on my time restrictions.
    Everyone can add me as a friend :)

    CW: 131.6
    GW: 123
    UGW: 115-119

    I eat high protein with lots of veggies avg around 1200/day. I have cheat meals once a week to keep myself in balance and keep my body guessing. I have not had time to work out much so most of the weight lost is diet only! I love the changes so far and the steady 1-1.2 lb weight loss a week!
