Not being able to reach my calorie goal...

teine79 · January 2013

Hi! My goal is 2000 calories a day but I'm finding myself not able to reach my goal and I eat a lot during the day. I always end up with 300-500 calories left to eat and then I exersize and it gives me even more calories to eat. I chose 2000 calories because I'm not sure if going lower than that for my size (currently 324lbs) is healthy.

Any help would be great.

Just let MFP set your goal and eat back exercise calories. That's what I do and I have lost 11.4 pounds this month.

If you are having trouble reaching your calorie goals, eat nuts/nut butters, cook veggies in olive oil, use full fat dairy, etc.
