Week #1 of my plan: 2222.14 cals consumed per day + 494.57 cals burned from exercise per day = 2716.71 (lost 2.2 lbs)
Week #2 of my plan: 1822.00 cals consumed per day + 523.71 cals burned from exercise per day = 2345.71 (lost 0.6 lbs)
Week #3 of my plan: 1840.71 cals consumed per day + 491.33 cals burned from exercise per day = 2332.04 (lost 0.8 lbs)

I need more cals consumed to hit that weight loss SWEET SPOT it seems.

    Remember, you tend to lose significantly faster in the first couple weeks, then things level off.

    I think you always lose the most the first week. You're doing good. Way to go!
