What are you trying to lose at 111lbs and 5’2, makes me feel overweight! Lol your current weight right is def aiming for the lower spectrum of height

I agree with this, 1200-1400 seems extremely low, no way I can eat that low with my training lol.

Thank you! I started almost 7 months ago, it def was a rough start but I kept at it with lots of consistency when it came to nutrition and exercise. I only worked out 5xs a week before, then as I got more fit I added the extra day. I see a lot here that people’s maintenance definitely differ even with the same height. I…

At your height and for the people of your same height, 114lbs is at the bottom of small frame, I wouldn’t go lower if I were you as it will be very unhealthy. Remember, the scale cannot tell you the muscles you have built. We consume ourselves with the scale and create such an unhealthy obsession, I know far too well about…

Thank you everyone for your input! I appreciate it all. For me, I guess I should have said this earlier on, the last time I was losing weight was when I was anorexic so this is the first time I have done weight loss eating right and working out. I had an eating disorder for a long time and the mental aspect of that never…

I have lost 43lbs in a course of about 6 months. Creating a calorie deficit (1400-1500 cal) and exercising has helped me be where I am at today. I am 5’2, I started at 171lbs, I am at 127lbs, goal is 120lbs...almost there. If I was able to do it, so can you! It is a lot of work but if you truly want it, you have to be…

I ran a 10k today! Months ago I couldn't run for longer than a few seconds without stopping and feeling like I was going to die.

I work out around 5:30am and I don't even think of food that early lol. I honestly can't imagine having a meal and then working out. As others have said, it really is a matter of preference and what works for you, all about your calorie defitcit.

Gosh there's so much I would tell my old self but here it is: 1. Be patient, weight loss does not happen overnight 2. Eat! Eating too little is not sustainable 3. Start slow and easy at the gym, pushing yourself too hard will cause you to lose motivation 4. Running takes time! You have to be patient, your body will…

Scrambled egg whites, green onions, turkey sausage on a "Let's Skip the Sandwich" veggie wrap, add hot sauce BAM!

Yea it is something I am still working on. I struggled with an eating disorder for half my life, only way I lost weight. This is the first time in my life I am losing weight the right way with better eating and exercise. I am trying to find a balance and not have a crazy amount of guilt after I eat "junk" I suppose. It…

It is still a cheat meal if it is highly processed and little to no nutritional value. I guess for me I am mindful of what I eat and I eat pretty clean, so having fries or something I consider it to be a cheat meal.

Thank you! It was for sure very difficult at first because the last time I lost a lot of weight I would starve myself so it took a little getting used to. MFP definitely helps staying on track on what I need!
