Myth or Fact? Simple Math: 3500 calories = one pound? Eat

to be honest I'm struggling to stick to eating my target calories. I recognised I was overdoing it, so for the last 3 weeks I've been sticking to it, but I'm not enjoying putting on weight. I'm going to stick to it until the end of March, but if I'm still gaining by then I'm going to give it up as a bad job.

My Ki Fit (UK name for BodyMedia's BodyBugg) tells me I have an average daily deficit of 1300 calories when I eat 1500, but I've put on two and a half pounds this week. Some of that will be muscle, but I'm not convinced that the Omron is right when it says I've lost two pounds of fat

yes ITS TRUE ASK A DOCTOR 3,500 IS ONE POUND

This is a great post and I'm kind of sad that I didn't get a chance to read it sooner. I think all people trying to lose weight on this site should read this.

Thank you! Saving to reread later.

Good stuff. I'm one of those "light" people trying to shed fat. Don't really care about what the scale says at this point (I just figured that out today, I think), I just want the extra fat gone. My new goal is under 20% body fat, maybe in the 18% range if I can get enough training in. Thanks and kudos to the OP!!
