  • Well, it doesn't look like I will be hitting this goal, unless I lose 10 lbs this week...lol. But I won't give up. It took me forever to quit smoking and a gazillion tries, but God saw me through it and it finally happened so I know this will too :) SW: 264.5 CW: 261.5 GW: 251.5 Weigh in Dates: Start of Month (6/02 Monday)…

  • I am not doing well with this challenge, but I'm going to keep posting regardless. Hopefully I will do better this week :( SW: 264.5 CW: 261.5 GW: 251.5 Weigh in Dates: Start of Month (6/02 Monday) 261.5 6/09 Mon: 260.3 6/16 Mon: 262.5 6/23 Mon: End of Month (6/30 Mon):

  • Hi. I am going to start BBY tomorrow. I don't really understand when to change cycles though. Do I stay on cycle 1 until I can do all of the exercises and then move to cycle 2 or do I move to cycle 2 after completing cycle 1 for the exercise I am currently working with? I think it is the latter, but I'm not 100% sure.

  • Thanks for the advice I will do that. Sometimes I do eat my exercise calories back, but not always. I just started and I did lose more than 1lb in a week. That is just what MFP says I will lose per week. :)

  • I weigh 260 and I'm eating 1750 calories to lose 1lb per week. I did .35 x 260 = 91 x 9 = 819/1750 = .468 which I rounded to 47%. Is that correct? I appreciate the help.

  • When I figured out my macros it worked out to be 28% Protein, 47% fat and 25% carbs. The fat seems really high to me. Can that be correct?

  • Well I am down one lb from the start of this which I am happy about, but I did not have a good week last week. I didn't track at all and had a lot going on health wise and attending a funeral. I'm technically up .3 from last Tuesday which is my normal weigh in, but I'm just going to keep on trying. Good luck to everyone.…

  • Hi, everybody. I typically weigh on Tuesdays so I did this the best I could. I did weigh on Monday 6/2 so I am using that as my starting weight for this challenge. :) SW: 264.5 CW: 261.5 GW: 251.5 Weigh in Dates: Start of Month (6/01 Sunday): 261.5 6/08 Sun: 6/15 Sun: 6/22 Sun: 6/29 Sun: End of Month (6/30 Mon):

  • Please add me too. I could use some motivating friends to help me make this lifestyle change and I would love to help you too. :)

  • Hi, everybody. My name is Dana. I would love to lose 10 lbs by July. I am going to see my brother in NM and my ex-in laws in KS in July and while I certainly won't be skinny by then lol..I would feel better just knowing I was actually on the right health path before leaving for vacation. My CW is about 265 which I guess is…
