i might be in this situation bc I lowered my calories last week so I could EAT my exercise calories and only lost .2 # this week. Today I was rethinking my calories and thought u keep hearing about TDEE and BMR maybe look into that before you tweak the next time. This post was perfect. Im going to look into the link right now and will check back in with results. I was a tad bit salty with all the work I put in and still UNDER my daily calorie allowance.0

I'm going to try this!! I have not lost a thing in over a month and am about ready to give up. I'm just scared that going from 1300 calories to 1800 (my TDEE - 15%) does not make me gain.0

It may at the beginning,as your body adjusts to the feeding! Hang tight. Many people experience a TEMPORARY gain of 2-5 pounds that is mostly water anyway. Put the scale away and give it 6 weeks.
This is not a process that is INSTANT. Read the stickies in the group Eat More to Lose Weight.
I never gained, but many do so you must be prepared for this mental hurdle. once your body adjusts, depending on how long you have been eating 1200 or less, you will start to lose again. Take Measurements!!!!!!
This is not a quick fix.

The biggest help I have found in eating the right number of calories has been with my Fitbit, I have another friend who uses the Nike Fuel Band, but either way, I keep MFP on "Sedentary" and then my Fitbit adjusts my calories to take into account the amount of activity I have daily. Some days I get almost none, other days I can get upwards of 600 - 700 extra cals from all the steps and activity I have at work!0

Ok, I am confused. My TDEE is 2691, I understand 15% less is what I should aim for, but is that for weight loss of 1lb per wk avg?0
