I began m journey several months ago making drastic lifestyle changes. I have lost 60 pounds to date. MyFitness Pal says if I want to loose 1.5 ponds per week I should consume about 1800 calories a day. I am 6 foot one and 209 pounds. I do 60 minutes of cardio 4 times a week. Otherwise not very active. i eat clean, no junk food, fast food, pop, sugar. Lots of protien, fresh fruit and vegetables. No gluten. Should I eat 2000 calories a day my goal is 190 pounds.:bigsmile:

Congratulations on your weight loss this far.. that's awesome! I'm trying to lose my last 20 pounds and from what I've learned - that as someone loses weight, the body gets used to what we are doing, and gets good at. So good that it starts being less effective for weight loss. What I've found is that increasing or changing up a work to challenge the body again is supposed to help.
Maybe increase to exercising 5 days a week and see how that goes.
Good luck! You can do it!0
