I am 5'6" at 147 and I'm trying to lose 1/2 lb per week so I can eat as much as possible - losing 2 lb a week when you are already around a healthy weight is not so healthy for you (muscle mass loss). I would try to lose at MOST 1 lb a week. Work out your TDEE on the Scooby calculator with that in mind and I bet you'll be able to eat a lot more which will be healthier. If you can add more weight lifting then that would be even better.

Thanks everyone I have decided on a new strategy

1500 cal a day X 7 = 10500 then have a extra 1000 over weekend for my wine and vodka chocolates whatever lol = 11500

I was eating 1600X 7 = 11200 losing avg 2lb. Week

Most tdee calculators says eat around 1700-1750 X 7 = 11900

So I'm just in the middle which I think will result in a slowe 1lb loss now x

Wait, what? You still didn't settle on an activity level.
That number seems wrong considering your size/age/activity level you have listed above. You're obviously not sedentary, and that's the only way your numbers could be so low. Put in how many hours you're exercising into Scooby and that will give you the right TDEE.

A weekly average is a fine idea, as it puts everything into perspective. Just make sure you're eating enough. You shouldn't lose any faster than 1lb a week at your current weight.

FYI: I'm 23, 5'6" 154lbs. I eat 2350 calories to maintain and about 2000 to lose a 0.5lb a week.

Nope - I just put your stats in the Scooby calculator and you have WAY MORE calories to work with. At moderate activity with a 20% deficit even, it states you should be eating 1896 calories. And 20% is more than you should be doing at your height/weight - you should be at 15% which would be a daily calorie input of 2015 for weight loss. Now if you put in light exercise (which is not what you are doing) then it put you at 1787 calories for a 15% deficit. I think you are either doing something wrong on the calculators or you just don't understand them.

I put that I'm moderately active and the results as I say of 6 calculators are 1700 avg,

My work out routine

Monday 45min walk @ 3- 3.5mph swim 45 min general breast stroke
Tuesday 45 min walk @3- 3.5mph Zumba 45min
Wednesday 45min walk 3-3.5mph swim 50 min
Thursday walk 45min
Friday walk 45 or may have day off
Saturday or Sunday I swim 45-59 min general breast stroke

I squat with 15kg 10 sets X 3 reps nearly every night

Scooby said with moderately active I should eat 2000cal to lose that seems WAY Too high as just last week been a good example, I ate at around 12800 = 1800 a day for the week I went to an all you can eat and reckon I ate maybe 3000 cals any ways this resulted in a 2lb gain!!

2400 Saturday - swam 50 legnths
1900 Sunday - walked 8mile around 3hr
1700 Monday then went to all you can eat so estimated 3000 cals
1200 Tuesday to compensate - walked 45min and Zumba 45min
1400 Wednesday- walked 45min swam 60 lengths 1hr
1200 Thursday walked 45 min swam 30min

The 2lb was a shock I know I didn't eat 7500cal over maintenance

So you seem to understand what fast weight gain (or loss too really) can not be (fat), therefore it must be water.
It really shouldn't be that much of a shock.
I lost 10 lbs on my last long bike ride in 3 hrs. Big whoop. I know the 8 lb gain by the next morning was same thing, nothing to worry about (unless I didn't get it back).
So you topped off depleted carb stores in muscles along with attached water by having a big day. Pick a better valid weigh-in day in that case to minimize known and expected water fluctuations.

Using the spreadsheet I referenced in my last post with those workouts you listed. Having a bodyfat % would help potentially, depending on what past diets did to you and muscle mass.
All the walking is medium cardio, everything else is high cardio. That squatting at this point is not lifting, not if night after night (I'm guessing actually 3 sets of 10 reps, not what you said, so about 10 min?), it's merely maintenance at this point, not putting a load on your body that requires any improvement, so equal to cardio.

Mifflin BMR - 1510
200 min weekly of walking on average.
280 min swimming and squatting on average. (if swimming is as much effort as walking, meaning that easy, then I put in wrong place in spreadsheet under high cardio).
Activity factor of 1.63 (which would have been over Very Active in rough TDEE charts).
TDEE - 2468
If goal weight is 140 lbs for medium frame (wrist size would help there) - then a 310 deficit is reasonable.
That works out to be 12.6% deficit right now.
Total Daily Eating Goal - 2158

Feeling ill and have no energy from what you eat - so you'll eat less food in general by making a bigger deficit?

How does that make any logical sense? Are you aware of the impact a deficit has on the body already beyond losing weight?
If you actually had a higher TDEE then 1lb would be figured to be OK, or at least did some strength training to retain muscle mass.
Do you have access to a gym or barbells that are actually heavy for you, something you can't do every night with ease?

Good on scale if you recognize an emotional response overpowers a mental knowledge of what is going on and you can't separate it.
That bad effect will likely continue to haunt you and make maintenance miserable, as you will likely view it as a single number to maintain, not a range. Best to keep working on that.
Hopefully Friday morning is still a valid day, otherwise really useless number except when you have 2-3 months worth of data and can see an actual trend through the noise of invalid stats.

Valid weigh-in. Morning after rest day eating normal sodium levels, not sore from last workout.
With only walking day prior, probably not bad, but just watch the food eaten on that day.

Swimming intensity is according to you. That could be a hard pace for my inefficient swimming style, it could be a super easy pace for yours. Nothing to do with actually speed, totally to do with how it is for you.
You ever walked 4 mph? Think about the HR and amount of breathing and how easy or hard it felt.
Is the swimming easier or harder than that?

Google sheets does indeed require Flash - or their app on the Apple devices, which I know many people use it with.
Gotta have a gmail account though which gives you a Google Drive space to have access to their web apps.
