Congrats! What a change, you look amazing!!! :smile:

I agree! You aren't eating enough. I'm only 5'2 and lose 2lbs or more eating 1300/1500 calories, aiming for 1630 cal now because I want to lose 1 lb. per week.

Bump :smile:

G!!:laugh:

<-- Latina, also part Irish and French :laugh:

I think it depends on body type, back fat was the first thing I started losing, don't ask me about my thighs and arms though. :P

So good! Avocado and eggs it's one of my favorites breakfast combinations. :smile:

I'm 21 years olds and I'm also looking for more mfp friends, so anyone feel free to add me :smile: I joined last year but only started using mfp last week.

Congrats! 11.9% in 8 weeks it's awesome!! I did a contest with my family that lasted 12 weeks, I won with a 11.7% weight loss :-)

My aunts: "why are you keeping those size 4 jeans? You don't think you can wear them again, right?" (hmmm....yeah?) "You'll always have chubby arms no matter how much weight you lose" (jeez, I know that but thanks for the reminder) "oh you've been losing weight too? A little right? A little.. *looks at me up and down*" (no…

Congrats! It's an awesome accomplishment :)

The first week I started, in January, I ate between 1000 and 1200 calories but I felt super tired and light headed, since then I started eating between 1350 cal and 1500 cal with very little exersice and lost 21 lbs in 3 months, then I hit a plateu after exersicing and eating too little, it lasted 3 weeks until last week…

Hehe you meant 2000 calories?

I know this thread is old, but I was searching about this article I found from John Barban's site: http://johnbarban.com/weight-loss-fallacies-2lbs-per-week-and-1200-calories-per-day/ I wanted to know if it's possible to create a calories deficit of 1000 calories and stay above bmr. He says it's ok to eat below bmr,…

It took me 4 months to lose 23 lbs. I still have between 35 and 43 lbs left, hopefully by February '13 lol :D I just started using mfp last week eating around 1630 calories and lost 1.5lbs, I weighted half lb less this morning but I only count Friday's weight in. Good luck!

I'm Mexican and I have the same problem lol it's like I'm tan/pale at the same time, I also think I look sick. Pff I have bad skin allergies in the winter and it gets worse with sun exposure, I'm going to start using sun protector and tanning my legs a bit because those are super pale, like 3 tones lighter than the rest of…

We don't celebrate cinco de mayo here in Mexico lol but it was a cousin birthday and I had at least 800 calories, it was delicious. 5 tacos 'sudados' each one filled with a different dish (black beans, mashed potatoes, chicharron guisado, green eggs and meat), then I had a small slice of chocolate cake, Texan sheet cake…

Maybe you aren't eating enough? I've lost most of the weight eating around 1400/1500 calories, then I started exercising daily and eating too little and had a 3 week plateau, now thanks to these forums I decided to up my calories to 1630 and lost 1.5 lbs this week! You need a calorie deficit to lose weight, regardless of…

I like the fat, chubby curvy and athletic photos, I think I'd like to be curvy/athletic :)

Today I had for breakfast one of those whole weath sandwich thins, spread one of the slices with 1/4 of an avocado and put a sliced hard boiled egg on top of the other one. :-) Actually I had 2 eggs but felt super full later. 300 calories, 21g carbs, 15g fat and 18g protein.

I told everyone :P I even convince some family members to diet too! We made a biggest loser type contest for 3 months, we're doing it again but for 4 months now. :D I also told other family members and they're very supportive, some friends too and I had to tell at work because they were constantly offering me food and…

I :heart: Carbs too, my nutritionist tried to put me on a low carb diet once and didn't work lol I have lost 22 lbs since January and eat bread, fruit, rice, pasta, oats, milk, homemade yogurt, and I even bake cake, brownies and cupcakes sometimes :-)

bump :)
