I need help. I am not losing ;(

mom2ab · June 2012

I lost about 5 lbs and was doing well. Then, I went on vacation to Vegas and it went down hill a bit. I got back on the horse and have been exercising (C25k) about every other day. I feel like I am eating pretty well. MFP tells me to 1230 calories. I am 5'1, 144 lbs and 36 years old. Do you think I need to boost my calories or exercise or make better choices? I just need to make sure I am going in the right direction. Thanks for the support.

Are you eating your exercise calories? I'd say eat more.

There is a lot of great info in this group about BMR and TDEE that could give you a better idea of what your calorie goals should be.

Yes, I usually try to. On the days, I do not exercise, 1200 is really hard for me. I get headaches and become grumpy. Maybe I just need to exercise everyday.
