Well I will try then. It was just very disconcerting to be losing 10 lbs a month for 4 months and then suddenly... "Oh look I'm 185!" Next week "Damnit I'm 187!" Next week "Omg I'm 180!" And most recently "Crap I'm 180.4!" (I weigh myself every Sunday)

Oh ok! Maybe I will jus put lightly active (taking into account my physically demanding job) so that when I add the exercise it's not double dipping as so many have put it. I had labeled myself as "lightly active" until about a month ago when I realized I'd hit a plateau and in my attempt to figure out the why, I realized…

The provolone and turkey hasn't been weighed out, I'm afraid as it's my "cheat day" treat from a local cafe... I suppose I could dissect it when I get home and weigh out every item in it.... . A normal day for me is 130 cal for oatmeal 4 days a week. But on my days off of work, I do skip meals. Not intentionally, I'm just…

I weigh most things but I do eyeball some things as well. I suppose I should be using the recipe making thing more but it can be time consuming so when I'm running behind on my logging I'll add premade stuff (only if it has a green check mark though) I do have one more (stupid, I'm sure) question... It seems…

I have exactly 50 lbs to lose! Already down 50! I have some health problems that make certain parts hard (i.e. someday exercise is just killer on my poor body) but I'm determined and motivated. I know you'll reach your goal, too! Feel free to add me. :3

Thank you for all the information! I will try this coming week to not add my exercise into my daily log and see what happens. I do know that on certain days when I go over I workout and am back in the green, but I suppose if my physical activity is already factored in then I'm still going over (whoops!) Thank you!

Oh also I just reread one of the comments. I eat 1,550 on a bad day, on a good strict day I try not to go over 1,200

I use MFP workout tracker and it automatically puts in the workout when I'm done, so I thought it only counted my BMR :(
-
I use a food scale (I think?) to measure out most meals. I don't have cheat days too often, the closest I get I having coffee and a sandwich at the local cafe once or twice a week but I still stay within the 1,550. I'd be happy to open my log up for opinions. It's been private because I'm embarrassed of the days when I…

I should explain I mentioned the no kids thing because when I got pregnant I was 190 and the depression of the miscarriage caused everything to shoot up to 230 lbs.
