Wow, my doctor never told me to avoid spinach, or broccoli, or any other greens.

Thanks everyone. I think this will be a trial and error for the first few weeks. I'm not sending my body into shock with a lack of calories and having my metabolism adjust negatively and not lose weight as quickly as I could by eating the right amount of calories vs. my exercise. I need this to be a healthy weight loss. I…

I used a BMR calculator that asked for activity level, weight age etc.... I input my current weight to see what my calorie goal would be to maintain and then recalculated with my goal weight. I just wanted to see what suggested calories would be. I feel 1200 calories MFP suggests is low, too low.

Also, most I have read numerous articles saying calories shouldn't be below 1300 because it is difficult to get all the nutrients needed and your body will go into "starvation" mode.

No this is strictly a challenge of 30 push ups a day for 30 days. Spartan puts on races which are obstacle course type across the country.

Come on don't be shy. I'll send you an invite to the group.

40 something and looking to lose 45 to 50. pounds. I like to laugh and have fun. Sometimes I'm hard on myself and I'm always a little snarky. I've sworn off clothes shopping until I can get into a size 10 again. Help me reach my goal before I'm walking around naked.

Im 40ish and I joined fitness pal 4 years ago. If only I would have had the persistence and motivation to stick with it then. I'm hoping to lose 45 to 50 pound this time. Scratch that, I'm going to lose 45 to 50 pounds this time. I like to joke and laugh, and sometimes am a little snarky. Who want to be friends?
