I lost the bulk of my weight using the TDEE-20% method. Using that method (and exercising about 3-4x a week for 30 min a day) I was eating up to 1400-1500 cal per day. Now that I have less than 10 lbs left to lose I switched back to the MFP method and am eating back my exercise calories, my base target is 1300 calories and…

Thank you. I think those may have actually been the 8s I was trying on as well. I bought the 6s in that brand and put those 8s back :)

I am 4'11 and 37 y/o. I started at 160 lbs. possibly a little more. I am now 121.6 lbs as of my last weigh in. I started Jan 30 2013. I cant believe Im posting these before pics but here goes lol. I am due to be in a wedding this coming March.... Me in my dress on Nov 2012, before losing ANY weight (I hate this picture) in…

Welcome back! I like new friends too.. feel free to add!

A friend of mine (who IS just starting out) got me a free 30 day pass and I went for my free assessment appt.. I wasnt impressed. It was just not what I am looking for in a gym at this point.. I am like 6 lbs from my goal and they really had nothing to tell me that I didnt already know and I wasnt about to pay $50 a month…

I am 4'11, 37 yrs old, 121.6 lbs, lightly active. My daily target is 1300 (no exercise). After exercise, my goal ends up being around 1600. I eat back most of my exercise calories. I have about 6-7 lbs to goal.

Pretty much the only food I don't like is fish. I just dont care for it. I do like most shellfish. Crab, lobster, shrimp, scallops.. all YUM! I do like tuna but only eat it occasionally. I don't eat fast food too often because my stomach doesnt tolerate it very well. I do use butter almost daily. Love fruits and veggies,…

My oldest son is my husbands from a previous relationship. We took custody of him when he was about 9 months old and he has been in our care ever since. He has known that I am not his biological mother from a very early age but he also has always known that I am his Mom. His bio-mom is... well, let's just say she is less…

Agreed. I have been on one program or another for about 12 yrs now. I started on WW after my 3rd baby and then in between my other pregnancies so I have been no stranger to this lifestyle. While I am trying to get in shape for a wedding... I had over a year to do so, it's not like it's a last minute "OMG I HAVE TO FIT INTO…

I am about 7-8 lbs from goal. I decided to stop at the top of my goal range until after the wedding., I bought my dress back in late June in the size that fit when I had to make the purchase (bridal size 12) and I knew it would need to be altered.. totally prepared for it. I tried it on last week and it's about a size too…

I love them.. I just do them whenever I feel like it. I havent been doing them as of lately.. but am getting back to it as of this morning! I usually do the 3 & 4 mile workouts... 2 mile when I am in a hurry.

I have 10 with more in the works.

We have roughly the same goal... I have about 7-8 lbs to go. These last few pounds are coming off slowly but I expected it. I lose about half a pound to a pound a week respectively. The last few weeks I have maintained for 2 weigh ins and then the next week I will see a loss. This has been pretty consistant over the last…

Grande Skinny Peppermint Mocha -or- Grande Skinny Vanilla Latte

I chopped em up and put them in a salad and also they are good in chicken salad.

Mine are: 1 serving Frozen fruit 1 cup Almond milk 1/2 cup Fat free vanilla yogurt 1 scoop protein powder 100g banana I mix it up with different fruits but the basic recipe is the same. I tend to use these as a breakfast on the go and they keep me full.

I had laproscopic (sp?) surgery to remove some cysts off my ovaries a few yrs ago. They ended up removing one complete ovary plus 2/3 of the remaining. What I have left still works.. I still have periods.. obnoxious ones at that. I had to go on continuous BC to stop them otherwise they are unbearable and they are actually…

I can absolutely relate. I suffer from SAD on top of my regular depression and seizures. And I live in WA no less.. the most bipolar state EVER! I have to force myself to exercise most of the time... I am also on Topamax btw.

When I first started here I was 160 lbs and I am 4'11". I lasted about a month on 1200 calories. I lost weight but I was hungry. I did some reading and I switched to the TDEE method, upped my calories and was no longer hungry and still losing. I lost the bulk of my weight this way. I switched back to the MFP method(eating…

I havent really cut anything out altogether but I have cut back on some things. I eat pasta and bread much less often. Especially bread... I eat pasta a few times a week. Eggs maybe 1-2x a week at best. I had originally cut eggs out almost all the way bc I needed to get my cholesterol under control, now that that is in…

Im 37.. I have 5 boys, ages 19, almost 18, 12, almost 11, and almost 10. I work full time and work from home as well. Feel free to send a friend req, just add a little note too! :heart:

Leslie Sansone's Walk Away The Pounds.. full workouts available on Youtube. 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 mile workouts. Love em!

Before if I can help it but since the updated app rarely works on my phone, its hit or miss when Im not at home :) But I am usually pretty spot on when Im out since I tend to stick to what I know. I also log as I go.

4'11 SW: 160--- Starting Pant/Dress Size: 12/14, Shirt Size: XL CW: 123.2--- Current Pant/Dress Size: 8, Current Shirt Size: Med GW: 110--- Goal Pant/Dress Size: 6/8, Goal Shirt Size: Small

I started Jan 30 and joined the site about 3 wks later. I am currently about 12 lbs from goal.

I have Epilepsy (since I was 9, I am 37 now), anxiety and depression disorders, reproductive issues that are mostly under control. I have had high cholesterol which came with being overweight but that has been corrected. My seizures are under control with medication and I can avoid them as I can feel them coming on ahead…

I still have to buy certain items to accommodate my boobs.. like cute dresses that fit great everywhere else but are cut for girls who are smaller up top. But I have lost a band size, which is good. I was fully expecting to lose a lot more as I lost weight. I went from a 38/40 D to a 36 DD.

Exactly what I was going to say. You cant just run into Target and get anything off the rack.

I <3 Kat Dennings. She's mine.
