    Reporting in with 2 pound loss. I cut back to just jogging, spin class and weights. I will bring back swimming in a couple of weeks. My gigs will start picking up in May, so those will also help increase calorie output. ....love & prayers....harris

    - hoping I'm not too late to hop on board. 10- 15 lbs to lose.
    - motivation _ I want to be able to pick myself up off the floor in an L-sit and its got to be easier if I'm 15lbs lighter!
    - bringing regular swimming back into my weekly regime - I just got lazy and gave up going.
    - Ashtanga Yoga will become loads easier the lighter and stronger I am.

    Swimming is great. I started again after 35 years, but stopped a few weeks ago with temperature drop.

    I do WANT to loose that much, perhaps a little more. And I know from some of the reality shows that I watch that it is possible. But there is a point where you need to look at not only what is possible, but what is safe, & what is healthy. My first thoughts would be to error on the side of health & safety & lower you monthly goals to 5 - 10 pounds. In your case, obviously wanting to diet aggressively, 10 pounds would be an aggressive goal. I would be more inclined to encourage others to keep health & safety in mind & set reasonable goals. If you set a goal of 5 & hit it, you can pat yourself on the back for knowing that you are taking steps in the right direction & your so far successful. What if you set a goal of 15 &'only' loose 9 ? Have you failed ? I don't think so, but some would. We should be setting ourselves up for success (even if they are smaller successes). Whatever you cut your calories to, make sure that your nutitional needs are being met along the way.
    MFP is an AWESOME tool to help manage your weight, use it, follow it, it will work for you if you are honest & do it right.
