Hello, I have been doing MFP a little over a month now and I've only lost three pounds! I set my goal to lose 1 1/2 pounds a week and it set my calories to 1290 a day. Is this too low and possibly the reason why I'm not seeing the weight come off? I try to work out 2-3 days a week, but I'm not seeing anymore results. It's very frustrating and I just feel like giving up....but I really do want to lose 40 pounds, I just dont know what I need to do. Any help would be greatly appreciated....thanks!!

    Are you seeing any other changes? Maybe your trimming up while building muscle? Not really sure about your calorie intake as everyone is a little different. But you look like your doing great with your food diary? What I think is working for me is walking. I try to get a walk in everyday during lunch. I found a place about a mile away that I walk to, pick up lunch then eat it at my desk... Or I use the treadmill at home if I couldnt walk at work..

    Hopefully someone else will have some ideas. Glad your still working at it though. This may be one of those Plateau's eveyone talks about.
