Not sure if anyone gets notifications or anything when i post a reply but UPDATE!~ I took a little bit of everyone's advice, I decided to up my calories over-all from 1300 to 1400. My TDEE said 1500 with exercise, but I felt okay with keeping it between the two. Although I did exercise today, I have enough calories left to…

Hmm must have just been a calculation error or something. Thanks for the advice, I've never tried looking at my weekly deficit instead of daily, I think I'll try it!

I will definitely try the yoga, I just bought a yoga mat not too long ago. And I see your point about sedentary, I just assumed that no actual physical activity, like purposefully working out meant sedentary and that I could just add the exercise calories back.

I use myfitnesspal half the time and loseit the other half haha. I usually just quick add calories but I didn't think about this. I am a vegetarian so there are vegetables in my diet already but I agree I could pick better foods, or maybe cut out coffee or something because the creamer probably takes up too many calories.

Yes I've heard of this! But until now I thought I could live with 1300. But it sounds good I will give it a try. Thanks so much to everyone for replying. Do you have any suggestions on the calorie amounts?

So Maybe make it 1500 for days that I don't work out? I just want to be sure that I will still be losing if I up my calories. I know it will still be under my maintenance, but my maintenance calories are only 1700, so eating at 1500 only gives me a 200 calorie deficit..
