Ok I finally started losing weight! I only want to lose 5 more lbs. before I was only eating 1200 cal, then after months of not losing anything I came on here to ask for support and info. You all helped me!! Told me I wasn't eating enough, figure out BMR and TDEE, then I realized I needed to eat 1726 calories! Well since I started eating more the weight dropped off fast! So now I'm at 156. The weight won't budge again. Do I adjust my TDEE based on my new weight? Also when I work out do I eat back all of my calories? I did read the eat more to weigh less forum but I'm a bit confused with the whole exercising to adjust TDEE etc. help! Thanks again for all of your help! I owe it to all of u!! :)

    Ok if I exercise, should I eat back enough calories to reach back to my TDEE or am I ok if I eat atleast enough to pass my BMR, as long as I'm not under the BMR right?? Then my body wont go into starvation mode?
