    You're amazing Ed, and a true example of what MFP is about. You're not just successful, but you try hard to help others be successful and happy to and that's awesome!

    Hi Ed! Congratulations! Your success is inspiring! I just joined MFP a month ago and am wondering if I can learn from your experience. I started out at 515lbs and am down to 313 now, but I have been stalled for the last two weeks. I know the program projects a high caloric intake for those of us with bigger bodies. I exercise a lot (65-105 minutes on the elliptical 6 days/week), so it's telling me to eat between 3,000 and 4,000 calories a day. That seems like a whole lot of eating though... I'm scared to do it. I usually have about 1500-1700 calories remaining at the end of they day. I feel satisfied during the day for the most part. How closely did you follow the calorie intake recommendations?

    Thanks, Ed! Congratulations again! And thanks for sharing your story.

    I lost the majority of my weight eating over 3000 calories a day (I start this journey at 2500 calories with a 40/30/30 split but was up to 3000 calories within the first 6 months and still lost 100 lbs. during that time) and have been eating 4000 calories a week for the last year in maintenance. I too exercise alot and am a FIRM believer in fueling my body for the workouts I demand it to do....
