Great idea!

New to doing a challenge, but I'd love to try it! VDay is also my BDay. oops, DELETE-didn't realize it was full.

I'm guessing I gained 2-4, and I hope it doesn't take as long to get that off as it did the first time. Sometimes that happens so maybe it's partially water weight. New day! Good luck to you!

I don't have a hrm, however I'm using zumbacalories.com as a guideline.

Friday mornings. Since weekends are tough, it Allows me to relax a bit on the weekend, get on track on Monday, and redeem myself by Friday.

You look great! Good job!

Happy for you!

I've been using circuit training-general.

Awesome-you look great! Congrats!

L1/D3 for me, but Does it really burn around 200 per 20 minutes? That doesn't seem like much. LOL. Is it a 20 minute work out? Guess I never paid much attention to that.

Thanks!

No Bake cookies made with oatmeal and hersheys cocoa???

Thanks for the explanation. I thought it should help, but then I start second guessing myself!

A pointless post- Absolutely NOT! I'm close to getting out of obese, so thanks for the inspiration and keep up the good work!

Amazing! You look great! Its like looking at 2 different people. How long did it take to lose? Congrats and wishing you success with maintaining.

I'm glad you did! Congrats to you and and you are indeed an inspiration to others! (I'm 5'2" as well) Thanks for sharing and good luck to you.

I have the same question. Some say it's ok to go a little below 1200, since we are shorter. Does anyone here do that? It seams when I do 1200, I see little- to no loss-(Don't get me wrong-I have lost slowly and I do feel much healthier). I am considering decreasing calories to 1000 to 1100. Any thoughts??

I'm 5'2" and started getting compliments around 15-18# loss. Be patient- when it does happen, its awesome!

TRY!

bump to read later.

thanks for your information. might try nudging the calories down again and working a bit more on strength. I'm willing to try!

SCREAM! 1.5 gain. WTH! Stay within 1200, try to keep carbs low (125) exercise 45-60/4 times a week. Not sure what to do now. I felt that I watched closely this week and exercises a bit more, but I had a bad feeling about my Friday morning weigh-in, but didn't think it would increase! #$%^ I've always said that moderation…

Thanks. I appreciate your help.

Hello Friends! I'm 5'2" and I don't have a definate goal as far as the scale goes. If I were to say anything, it would be 135??? I've lost 18 so far. I'm a lifer- I just want to be healthier. I may not participate in challenges because of my experience with s l o w progress, but do welcome new friends and support both…

I also have a question about Low Carb. I try to stay within 125g per day. However MFP increases that amount when you exercise. Do you Low Carbers stay with your actual goal or allow yourself more carbs?

Thank you! Great post and wising you continued success! I keep telling myself that because it's slow, the weight will likely stay off. Cheers!

You both have a good attitude! Stay positive! :wink:

CONGRATS to you! I'm 8 away from that feeling and I can't wait to say that! Happy for you!

CONGRATS to you! Awesome work! I'm 8 away and I can't wait to say that! Happy for you.
