For the last time, I want to make sure I'm calculating my calories correct. I am supposed to have 1200 calories. I earned 474 from exercise today which puts me at 1674. So I have to consume 1674 calories today, CORRECT?

    Thanks, that's what I thought. It just seems like so many calories. Plus, I have only lost 4 lbs. in 4 weeks so I'm just trying to make sure I am doing everything right!

    a pound a week is great progress! Remember, the less you have to lose, the slower it will leave you. But it will.:wink:
