    My avatar is of the lightsaber I built a couple of weeks ago, HAPPY STAR WARS DAY!

    I came on this thread at work specifically to say "May the fourth be with you AOJ!". Okay...back to work.

    I recently changed my activity level to sedentary and I'm given 1700 a day... I admit my logging isn't as tight because I hate seeing I'm in the red! I gotta figure this out!

    I wish I was given 1,700 before exercise. That's close to my maintenance amount. The pains of being short...

    Mine is closer to 1500 before exercise.

    I actually just looked it up: MFP gives me 1,200 before exercise and 1,570 to maintain. *cries*

    IIFYM gives me 1,370 for exercise 5 days/week (1,411 for 6) and a TDEE of about 1,800. For sedentary, my TDEE is 1,500.

    My TDEE is around 1550 to maintain if I'm sedentary. That's why I am so committed to being active, because 1550 is not how I want to eat in maintenance if I can avoid it.

    I'm desperately behind, but I wanted to check in and say hi.

    I found out on Saturday that my dad most likely has cancer. He also was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. The prognosis is good, but he will be having surgery in the next few weeks to remove the tumors.

    Obviously, I'm kind of a wreck right now. :(

    I'm sorry you guys are going through that. Positive thoughts to your family. My mom has had cancer 4 times, so I know how scary it is, even when the prognosis seems to be good.

    So sorry! It's so difficult/scary to deal with parental health issues.

    I went over my cals Saturday by *at least* 4,000... used the excuse that it was "the last weekend of my twenties"...

    Thing is, Saturday morning I was only 1.6 lbs from my goal weight... and my goal was to be that weight by Wednesday for my birthday :/

    Ah well... Still could happen I suppose, but I'll not hold my breath. It was a lovely weekend, though.

    Happy Birthday!

    I love when people get into heated "discussions" on these forums, I just sit back and let them go at it and take away the parts I want. The peope I can't handle are the people who throw in their "bullying" comments (and add nothing useful to the discussion about the OP). It's NOT bullying!! People are allowed to disagree and if someone disagrees by calling names and throwing around immature comments then that's STILL NOT BULLYING-- it's just being a huge, immature, a**!!! Rant over :)

    Edited for spelling.

    This is the ad on the side of my MFP right now, and it is making me a little uncomfortable...

    Ok one more post before I go back to work. I think the back and forth is funny but then when it gets nasty I leave. I really don't like when it gets nasty. And I don't like when people go on the attack on someone (unless they truly are stupid... not judging). That is why I mostly stay on this thread or ones that are similar.

    Good heavens. I'm so happy I was able to put AdBlock on my work computer. All of my ads before then were in spanish...THAT..is the most interesting one I've ever seen though.

    So sorry, but they have very effective treatments for cancer now, and when they say the prognosis is good, it usually is.

    OH yes.

    Unless the script I used to enter my macros in gram is fixed or a new one is made, I'm just going to enter my macros goals into the food notes.

    I can't believe they'd expect me to want to pay that much for "premium", especially with the app's "improved" macro / micronutrient breakdown

    I'm sorry to hear about your dad. I hope things work out for you and your family.
