Carnival cruise with my family. Shooting for May of next year!

If I eat below 1500 calories consistently I gain weight. If I eat at 1500 calories and do not eat back my exercise calories I lose on average 3-4 lbs a week. According to MFP I should be eating 1200 calories a week so I can lose 2lbs. Yeah, ok... whatever!
-
After much "fiddling" I've found what works for me. I had my calorie intake set at 1200 and was eating my calories back from exercising and in one week gained about 5lbs back of what I had lost previously. Eating them back didn't work for me. So, I adjusted my calories and ate 1500 calories and let my exercise calories be…

I have 2 of her dvd's and the way I log them in is how much time it takes for me to get to a mile. If it's around 15 minutes then it's a 4 minute mile. If it takes 20 minutes then it's around 3.0 mph.

I just started using the elliptical 2 weeks ago on a dare from a friend who is more overweight than me. She worked her way up to 15 minutes on it (literally started at 2 minutes and kept increasing). I got on it the first time and was only able to do around 5 minutes but now I've passed her on time. I made it to 40 minutes…

Been together since February of 1992 and got married August 1993. So altogether, 20 years. Definitely love him more now than I did when I married him but not near as much as I will in a few years. :)

Definitely going to meet my goal this month.Didn't meet November's or December's so this is a personal hurrah! Might keep it for 100 next month too since it's a short month.
-
I'm in. Didn't meet November or December but I keep increasing my goals too and I'm getting closer each time. I'll set mine at 100 miles and as of today I'm already at 21. Just might meet it this month.
-
So, my November challenge I wasn't able to meet (32 out of 40). But December I'm taking into consideration the days that I have plans, the days I'll be out of town, and I'm going to set my challenge at 60 miles. I've been walking consistently for a month now and I think I can meet this challenge and hopefully exceed it.

During starvation mode you will initially stop losing weight but eventually your body kicks into survival mode and literally begins to eat itself. It will first attack the fat supplies you have and then will begin attacking the muscles for food. That's why anorexia is so bad. They usually have lost all of their fat…

I'm new here and at walking a lot so I'll join in and set my walking goal at 40 miles.

Zumba on the Wii?!?! Tell me more please!!!

Count me in too! I love the rhythm boxing, free step, advanced, etc.. I've been trying to get in the habit of doing it 30 mintues a day but somedays are busier than others and it falls by the way side.
-
That is awesome! I have a hard time making myself get up and get moving but then once I do I feel better about myself. You inspired me today.
-
I'm fairly new to MFP too. I have 93 lbs to lose and I'm only down by .4lbs so far. I've only been attacking my fat for 2 weeks though. Hopefully I'll see a more significant weight loss in the next week or so. I'm counting my calories, fat, etc... on here but I'm also doing Weight Watchers and using their point system. I…

What about quesadillas? My family loves making quesadillas with left over grilled chicken. Add some mushrooms, spinach, and low fat cheese and cook on the quesadilla or even fajita shells and enjoy. Low in calories and fat and very filling.
