    What have you told MFP you want to lose per week? Instinct says that 1300 for a lightly active person would mean you want to lose 2lbs per week which is a little too much at your weight (YMMV). Reset your goals, eat more and you should find you lose 1/2 a lb per week reasonably.

    I agree. I am 260, set for 2 pounds loss per week, exercise 4 times a week, 45 min each.. my calories in is at 1350.

    I've thought about taking more than one rest day, but the problem is that I'm REALLY HUNGRY on 1310 calories! I like to burn at least 200 or more so I can eat another good snack.

    I have this same issue! I can not stay below my calories if I don't workout. I just upped mine to 1400 today to maybe see if I can.

    Just stick to your workout and tracking! I've been in the same spot after a hard workout week and no loss, so I completely understand!
