[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hi, all.  I’ve easily always been at a healthy weight until the pandemic and when I started having tendonitis, which limited my running, and I hit almost 170 (I’m 5’4, 46 now).

Last year I joined a nice gym and splurged on a trainer for 3x/week at 3 months ($5k at equinox! ), and ended up getting down to 145.  But because of the cost I couldn’t get more sessions.  I managed to stay around 140’s for a while, but have again creeped up to 160. . . I’ve continued lifting weights and eating “healthy”, but definitely not staying active enough, and worse, overeating (and overdrinking).

At this point, I’ve had it and very, very determined to get the fat off.  I’m working with a trainer 3x/week and eating around 1200 calories, aiming for 120-130 grams of protein.  My goal is to get down to 130 by end of June 2025.  It’s been a week, and I feel good so far, but definitely craving my first treat meal, which I’ve planned for Monday.

Anyway, no questions - just wondering if anyone else has been there/done that.  And I know a number of people are on similar weight-loss journeys.  [/quote]
Your time frame seems reasonable, but keep going after you hit goal. Not dieting, but continuing with the workouts because body composition changes take years. You may be able to eat more, too. You've got this![/quote]
