Ohhhhh I see what you mean ! Thanks ! My maintenece calories were given by mfp but I have not weighed myself recently so I don't know whether I've lost 1 pound per week rather than .5 lb . I do think I have lost more than .5 lb per week though because of my exercise , so no worries thank you !

I haven't lost consistently .5 lb a week , I haven't really been weighing myself very much to be honest .

Thank you for the help , but I don't understand what you mean ? Are you saying that I should eat back some of my exercise calories ? How can I be eating more if I'm not eating the extra calories given from exercise ?

Thank you !!!

Thank you ! And I just prefer not to , and yes I am

THANK YOU SO MUCH !!!!!!!

I hope I didn't confuse . I mean if I eat to lose .5 lb for 6 out of 7 days and on the seventh day I go over my calories will I be able to maintain my weight and possible lose a little . How many calories over would it take for me to gain if I did that one day out of the week ? My maintenance is 1840 and to lose half a…

Actually scratch that first part i meant to say let's say you eat to lose .5 lb per week

This thread is amazing oh my gosh ! When you pass your goal weight but still want to be smaller and then start looking at those body fat percentage pictures

I'm wondering if this would work because the thing is with me if I'm going to have something unhealthy then I go all out instead of having it "in moderation" and then I'll be rigid with my eating for weeks and I did the one cheat meal a week thing and that works for my rigid weeks because I still stay within my calories ,…

By 2 straight weeks I mean 2 straight weeks of eating on a deficit to lose 1 pound

I mean Like in theory if you had a complete day eating high high calorie foods like I'm talking waaaayyyy over maintenance like thanksgiving or something maybe even worse and then the next day you went on a deficit to lose 1 pound and you did this for let's say 2 straight weeks and then the day after you had another…

No they are right I did edit because I was asking a question. The main focus didn't need to be on a one year age difference . I was born in 1998 , my profile says 1997 because I figured that one year would not be a big deal . As for the nutrition help thank you . Thank you also for the spark teen reccomendation. I would…

There are some days when your mind totally tricks you and you feel like you didn't lose enough and other days when you can't stop looking at yourself in the mirror !

You can add me !

Ok thank you everyone , I ate to lose one pound for about 9 days and then this weekend I went almost to maintenance for Saturday and Sunday I'll go back to loose 1 pound on Monday and then Saturday morning check my weight

Thanks ! I was just wondering if there were any downsides to doing this other than an extra two days to lose 2 pounds

Wow three years of maintenance that's awesome . Do you have any advice on how to maintain ? Are there any certain principles you follow ? I find that there is more information out there on how to lose weight rather than how to maintain it .

Thank you all so much for the help !!! I learned a lot from this and think I may start the cycle calorie thing that looked interesting . Thank you again !

Hi thank you so much ! And yes I think I did actually . I set it to lose 1.5 lbs a week , will I continue to lose weight if I now eat 1460 ?
