I have been stuck on a nasty platue of 196-199 for the past month. I upped my calorie count as of last week to 1300, I know before I was eating way below that. Should I up them more? I don't exercise, except the 2 block walk from the bus to and from work, if that helps.

    there's a lot of info on here about TDEE and BMR. in my experience, mfp estimates these well enough for me so i use them.
    if you've only been on the 'upped' amount for a week i'd give it a bit longer to see how it works for you.
    when i started off on here at 200lb i lost 50lb over a year on 1200 and exercising 3-4 times a week, eating back exercising calories. i'd recommend getting a bit of exercise in each week as it really did help me. i do dvds at home or on youtube which are 20 - 45 mins and found that was good enough for me.
