    I've been mostly eating between 1600 and 1700 calories, so I've started recently really slowly increasing my calories, hoping to get up and around or over 2000 calories and still be losing!!

    You all look awesome!! :drinker:

    I love this thread! :love:

    I started off at 1400 calories and saw a great initial loss, BUT... I feel hungry and I love to eat (and cook!) so I am upping my calories a little at a time until I am at a comfortable level. Right now I am at 1500, testing the waters, and then probably going to up again soon. I love fresh, real, homecooked food and I love experimenting with recipes and personalizing them. With a higher calorie goal I'll have all the more room to do so, lead a healthy life AND enjoy the process with plenty of yumminess and energy. Ain't no starvin' goin on here. :wink:
