I'm in again!

I don't know what your ultimate goal weight is or why your caloric input is 1200 but when other MFP have issues losing, they up their calories slightly. When you don't eat enough, your body goes into starvation mode and tries to hold on to all the fat it can. When this happens, you don't have any leftover energy to build…

I'm 5'11" and currently 196# I wear a 16 (sometimes 14) and L or XL depending on cut. I'm trying to get back to 170#s and hopefully a 10/12 again. I carry all my weight in my belly, esp after having kids. Still look pregnant depending on clothes.

Feel free to add me too! I have 2 kids ages 5 & almost 3. I commute to work and have a hard time fitting in exercise during the week. I've been on MFP for a while but never made the commitment to my health that I need to. I'm always looking for new motivation and willing to help others.

Count me in!

I also agree that MFP underestimates the amount of protein needed. Based on my food diary I should be getting 69g of protein a day. I aim for around 130 based on what my doctor and a nutritionist friend have recommended.

Another thing to do is make sure you have some protein after lifting. It can be a protein shake or even just some lunchmeat. That will help your muscle recovery and not be quite as sore. Also, next time you do the same muscles, try to do different exercises so you don't develop muscle memory as quickly. Keep it up!:wink:
