Excited to start this!! I'm 36 and 5'3. Starting weight: 138.4 April 4: April 11: April 18 April 25: Goal for April 30: 131.4

I'm doing C25k and light strength training with bands (M, W, F) and classes at Title Boxing (Su, Tu, Th). Sat is an off day.

Thanks for posting this. I logged my bad day as well. Back at it tomorrow!

Maple pumpkin and apple cinnamon Mighty Muffins. I wish I'd never been introduced. Lol

I ate 2100 calories today and didn't work out. I'm annoyed with myself, but it's done. Back at it again tomorrow.

Moving towards "whole" foods and weighing everything are the big ones for me.

In!

Fage 2% yogurt, blueberries, raspberries, strawberries, Kind protein fruit & nut granola for crunch and a drizzle of agave 5 calorie.

1 glass of wine on Friday and 1 glass on Saturday. I think I'll survive. lol

Excited to start this!! I'm 36 and 5'3 Original starting weight (2014) was 174. Been fluctuating in the 130's and 140's for 2 years. Finally putting in the work to get the rest of it off for good. Starting weight: 137.4 April 4: April 11: April 18 April 25: Goal for April 30: 129.8 I'm probably nuts for setting this, but…

Thanks to TDEE and the MFP community, I just realized that I'm eating about 150 calories less per day (1450 vs 1600) than I should be. Rather than increase it daily, I plan on banking it for the weekend. 2 glasses of wine, dinner and dessert will be guilt free!

Great spreadsheet! Can you explain the surplus calorie calculation? I've been looking for a way to predict future weight aside from where I think it should be ;) I've set my calories to 1,450/day. My TDEE is 1,850. If I only eat 1,400, would my surplus be 50 and add 1,000 to that, or is there another number I'm missing?

I started off getting fitted for the right brand at a running store. Then found that same brand at DSW. It may have been a last year's model, but the fitting of the brand rarely changes. I have always had Brooks shoes.

I can't figure out how to add people, but feel free to add me!

They sell them at the Vitamin Shoppe stores. You can get them on Amazon too, but I think that's only larger quantities. I may do my next order online, it was that tasty!

I just tried my first Flapjacked Mighty Muffin in maple pumpkin. Omg. So good! Up next is apple cinnamon tomorrow. Best "new" product I've bought in a long time.

Chicken fajitas -chicken cooked in a few tbsp of salsa and fajita seasoning -trader joes frozen onions/peppers (or use fresh and cook) -tortilla -greek yogurt -top with shredded lettuce, cheese or salsa One large fajita/burrito is under 400!

Thanks for all the feedback. Funny, my post yesterday was purely because I was bored/hungry and wanted the excuse to eat, and now you're telling me to and I don't wanna! Lol I know I should be doing the -10%, it's just a little scary eating more when you grew up with the low calorie diet mentality. I'll make the adjustment…

Feel free to add me. I'm just getting back into this too.

Ok, thanks. I figured I was over thinking it.

Also, I think it's Blue Bunny, but they have a mini ice cream cone with vanilla ice cream and a caramel swirl that's relatively good on calories. If you want the taste/crunch of a trip to the ice cream shop, I highly recommend it. The trouble is eating just one!

Halo Top gets such great reviews, but I tried several and they all had a weird after taste that I couldn't get past. A few spoonfuls of each and they wound up in the trash. I prefer the Edys Slow Churned thats also mentioned. It's real ice cream and tastes like it to. I go with the plain vanilla.

I ate grilled salmon and asparagus. Then a double helping of garlic mashed potatoes and a double serving of coffee cake. I had every intention of not going overboard, but I did. I'm really glad I went to the gym and ate light earlier. Still, wish I had more will power.

I love Pro Bars. They come in 3 sizes depending in your need. I like that they're not processed and the ratio of 30carbs/20 protein is good for me as well.

I'm right there with you! I get very narrow in my rib cages and it slowly works its way down. Then I get a nice muffin top, and finally the legs. It's annoying, but I don't care what order it leaves in, as long as it leaves :)

I'm in for April! 5'3 Starting Weight - 138 (hoping 137 by April 1st) Goal for end of April - 130 Ultimate goal 120-125 Let's do this!!

Feel free to add me!

Skinny Pop 100 calorie pop corn every night for me!!

Not really new, but I tried the Salted Caramel Chobani flip today and wasn't impressed. Tasted artificial and kind of sour. I eat greek yogurt with berries every morning, but that stuff was nasty. I still have a mocha flip left. I may just toss it out.
