Ht. 4'11', Wt. 141 - yesterday the scale said 141, so i guess i lost 5 pounds, even though i don't see any difference in me or feel any different. I just walked 8760 steps, or 3.307 miles, and burned 189 calories. is this right?!?!? Because some people on here are saying when you walk 10,000 steps you burn almost 500 calories. Is my step counter off or am I doing something wrong?!?!?

Ht. 5' 4", Wt. 172 - Hi guys today I found out alot.I found out that it takes about 3500 extra calories to make a pound but it also takes burning that 3500 calories to lose a pound. Also if you walk (or run) a mile than you will burn 100 calories so if you walk 35 miles a week (5 miles a day) than you will lose 1 pound as long as you only eat the average of 1200 calories!!! Tommorrow I am starting a new dieting plan do to this information!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Any tips that you have still will be greatly excepted I was just so excited to share this information!!!!!!!!!!!YAY -Allie

Ht. 5'0'', Wt. 150 - I ate about 1200 calories today, pushed my 30 lb cousin in the stroller for two miles, biked mostly uphill for 3 miles, and played tennis for an hour and a half, but I feel really icky because about 300 of my 1200 calories were junk food that I didn't NEED to eat. I am having a hard time saying no! At this rate, will I be able to lose 7-10 lbs in 10 weeks? Its so hard to stay focused long term!

Ht. 5'8", Wt. 170 - wow I just realized how tall I am :]
anyways, school starts in september (8th or so?) and I want to lose 20-25 pounds. is is possible? I have 11 weeks. The healthy weight loss is 1-2/2-3 pounds a week. so yes it's possible?
How many calories would I have to eat a day. I exercise ALOT (not trying to brag or anything) But I have no trouble with exercising, I just have trouble with the eating part. I'm on the girls tennis team next year, so I need to get in shape for that/practice, since it's all cardio.
I'm new at this guys..nice comments please?

Ht. 5'3, Wt. C:130?? G:120 - Ok I just wnet on a 35 minute fast paced walk but I'm not sure how far it was. I also did a 30 minute cardio/strenght thing while watching fit TV this morning. Then I did the normal pushups, dips, squats, lunges, crunches, ect. for about 30-45 minutes a little at a time. I also have added weight training with the squats and to tone up my arms. For eating I had BREAKFAST: a smoothie made with 1 cup low fat yogurt, a banana, and ice. SNACK:handful of grapes LUNCH: cheese Casidilla~ Made with 1 slice kraft cheese, a few tablespoons salsa, and 1/3 slice of lean lunch meat ham. SNACK:1 large apple and a few grapes SNACK: a banana and a handful of grapes DINNER:1/2 alvocado, 2 tamato slices, 1/2 of a hamburger patty, and a baked potato with bbq sauce. I feel I did really good and I plan on posting my day on here ever night from now on. I think it will help me see what I ate and also get advice...so how did I do today??

Ht. 5'6, Wt. 281 - So...I've started eating super-healthy and working out with weights for about half an hour a day and then doing cardio for about 20 minutes a day. I'm thinking of upping the cardio to twice a day, for a total of 40 minutes. How fast can I reasonably expect to lose some weight if I stick to it?
