Never counted calories before

I just joined up yesterday on the recommendation of a friend. What happened is that I lost about 20 pounds since January by accident and I would like to keep it going since I seem to be on a roll. I didn't really do much to lose it so I'm going to give the credit to my love of strawberries and the realization that I wasn't burning all the calories I was eating by sitting at a desk so I stopped snacking throughout the day. Anyway, I feel inspired to fit back into the old clothes I stashed away so for the first time I saw my calorie intake and I'm already over lol
This is hard! I guess I had better do a little more exercise to make up for that!
