It not cool that the more weight I lose, the lower my total calories per day is. Stupid math!

    Exercise more, and you'll get to eat more food.

    Or, for that matter, when it comes to math.

    Or life even? It just occurred to me today. I have not been paying attention to the numbers except to try and stay below them. The good news is, once I meat (heh heh) my target weight, I plan to muscle up. Preliminary research indicates that requires calories.

    peachyfuzzle - "Exercise more and you can eat more". That's is my safety valve!!

    Its also not fair that the typical guy burns more than the typical gal. It is what it is though. (And when my hubby flaunts his higher burn rate, I remind him that I've lost 50+ pounds and he has 50 to go. All is fair in love & weight loss after all?)

    Yeah, I am losing faster than my wife, but she has a fraction of what I have to lose. She is following the rules as much as me, just a gender thing I guess.
