  • You seem to be burning a lot more than 2300, even on a weekly basis. I think 2500 was more your number (although I am in no way an expert, haha). Are you able to more closely follow your bodymedia? I know that your TDEE changes week to week, but that may be helpful since the discrepancy would be less. I had the same…

  • Great job on the mental aspect. The 2 lbs is nothing! And yes, I'll wake up fine, and then half way through my workout I am STARVING, but then by the end it subsides enough to make it home, shower, and eat something.

  • Yes, definitely keep updating! It is inspiring me to eat more and stop labeling foods as bad. I'm having pizza for dinner tonight and a panera bakery item from my bday to hit my calories. I never would have done that before! You are doing so great, but have also convinced me to avoid the scale unless I'm at my biweekly…

  • Love your updates! Keep at it! I just got a fitbit and will start comparing my calorie intake vs fitbit burn like you are!

  • This past week I had my calories around 1800 and added either rice or potatoes back to my lunches (before it was just chicken and veggies typically). My original plan was to increase faster, but I think I will take it slower since I am not really in a rush and my metabolism wasn't really "shot" to begin with since I was…

  • That's great! Good job for not dropping back down. The vacation was probably good for you!

  • Very fair! It was the "If you have kids/pets keeping you more active nights/weekends, but still desk job" box that I was questioning on whether or not to check, so I just assumed to go up since a lot of other things I've read have said to do that since most underestimate. I will work my way up to the 2366 number and see…

  • That spreadsheet is great, thank you! I used 190 minutes for lifting and 340 minutes for cardio. I have a desk job (although I work from home some days and find I am more active around the house during breaks) and a puppy (who sleeps a lot) so some nights I am not very active so I wasn't sure what to put as an activity…
