1 week into moving from 1400 calories to 2053, in 1 week I've shifted just over 5.4lbs and also dropped inches! Well chuffed, long may it continue :drinker:

    Thanks very much, I'm over the moon. I'm now 176lbs, I've never been this low. Always failed to get below 180 and since doing this 'Eat More' the weight and inches are just falling off :) Didn't expect that amount in just a week, was hoping for 1, maybe 2 pound but not 5.. Actually enjoying eating more too :)

    Wow! congrats!
    I've been stuck on a plateau forever, going up and down the same two pounds. I recently joined EM2WL and reading this post is motivating me to stick to it! :) Good luck!

    Thanks very much @Noor13 :)

    @himel13 - Did you get all your stats from http://scoobysworkshop.com/accurate-calorie-calculator. As soon as I went with the stats on there that's when my weight loss started to fall, I just altered the calories on MFP to match on that side and that was it for me :)

    Keep going though, i know what it's like being stuck, constant up and down! It can be mentally challenging but hang in there and it will happen for you :)

    Good luck

    Thanks for all your replies, I love the motivation this site/groups give you.. It drives me on and makes it very easy to stick to it.. Just to let you know, I never done the actual reset, I just went straight in for the 15%

    I've been weighing my self every few days (sorry) but can't keep away from them lol, plus seeing the scales reduce also gives me motivation to keep going..

    Thanks again for all the replies

    Wow! Very well done. It's so great to see it working.

    I get all the theory but I'm still chin dropping amazed when I read someone has increased their calories AND lost weight. How'd have thought it :) Yay!!!
