Whew...I'm so happy I joined this group! I don't know how many posts I read on how to calculate daily calories and for the life of me could not get it straight (probably cause I was hungry and couldn't think) But today I looked into this group and saw how well explained it was and finally I got it....hooray!!

Welcome....my name is Jennie and I'm 51 yrs old. Been on the weight loss journey for 14 months now but joined MFP in March looking for that extra motivation to push me to my goal weight!

love it bump

Oh yeah......bump

If it would be 100 cals per mile then 500 cals burned for 5 mi would be my number I guess. I will try to purchase a heart rate monitor so I can get a more accurate reading.... thank you all for taking time to…
