I started MFP in early January of this year. My starting weight was 174.5, and I am a 5'8" female. MFP suggested 1200 calories a day. I did that for about a month. Felt HORRIBLE!

I'm 5'8, medium frame, and 46 yo. I've been down as low as 125 (hubby thought I was much too thin!), and as high as 180 (way too heavy for my frame!). Started MFP this time at 174. My initial goal is 150, but depending on how I feel at that weight, it might change to 140-145. Like a previous poster said, I'm concentrating…
