            I know it seems backwards and scary as hell, but if you eat a little more the weight might come off just a wee bit easier. Ive read a ton of stuff that says when it gets harder to lose weight/inches or you hit a plateau that you should increase your dietary intake. I'm not saying that your current calories are bad, it's low compared to the "norm" but everybody is different and I say do what works for you. But if it keeps getting harder to lose, and it almost always does for those who have had a good streak, try eating a little bit more. Even just more fruit or veggies or some protein to a meal or snack. Sounds crazy but it really does work and you don't have to do it forever, just until you get over a slump and then go back to your 1000 cals.0
