I am same as you, I'm 5'2" and lost a bunch of weight on WW over the years (highest was 177) and then put it back and then back off yo-yo dieting, so now I am at 146 and want so badly to get to 130-135. I have a trainer 2x a week, plus doing cardio 3-4 times a week and it is coming off very very slow but at least it is…

Thanks I will definitely try to find that book! I do not count my daily steps/activities. I only count my workouts which I do want to amp up. I usually do 30 min of cardio 4 days/week and personal trainer for 30 min. 2 days a week. I want to up the cardio to an hour and maybe that will help too. I'm pretty new at this…

Ok, I changed it to 1 lb. a week and it now has given me 1270 calories per day, I might try that as long as I'm working out as hard as I have been lately. Ht. 5'2", Wt. 146

Thanks I will edit my setting to light activity and see what happens :) Ok I changed it to light but the calories per day still say 1200 -- anything else??

Thanks everyone, I think I am getting it....I work with a trainer for 30 min. 2x a week and a barbell class at the gym 1x a week and also have been doing cardio (treadmill or elliptical - 30 min. 4x a week). You would think with me only eating around 1200 calories a day (ok one day I went up to 1400 calories) the weight…

So does that mean if I am eating 1200 calories a day I need to burn more than that a day?
