I am trying to get back on the weigh loss bandwagon. I fell off in Jan. I want to make sure I am eating enough and/or overeating due to # of calories. I am still nursing my almost 3 yr old son. He doesn't eat a whole lot, only a couple of times a night. I don't want to go too low on calories, but also I don't want to over do it. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

  • I calculated the calories used per ounce for the number of ounces my boy was eating in a day. I can't remember the number I used for how many calories per ounce, but a quick internet search should give you a ball park. I put it in like exercise- I have to tell it 120 minutes to give me almost 500 calories.
