I think I'll have to do that. Thank you.

Good to know..I wonder how to incorporate that. I feel like the big people must have researched this. It's not a one size fits all thing. Someone could be my height/age and weight yet have little muscle and a narrow frame, we shouldnt require the same calories...hmm.. thanks for that info!

Anyone know??

I will consider all these. Usually I just sub a workout For cleaning my house. It has to be done. Oil? I usually have some coconut oil each day, if not exV olive oil. I'm in the beginning stages of figuring out what works overall. I think I'm finding out what Doesn't this past week :) thinking its time to buy a food scale.…

The energy is good on some days. I won't be able to go sleep it's so naturally there; but I think I just overload myself with too much. I take a women's multi vit. Get most my carbs from sweet potatoes and fruit/veggies. I'm starting to think my adrenal glands are tweaked or perhaps hormones. I might expect too much from…

These are great points..same here with work and a child. I don't do well with deprivation and I think slow and steady wins the race. I edited goal time and am giving a loving allowance of calories. I know I will work for it, but yes have to feed the muscle too. I've got a lot luckily. Thanks for bringing all this to light…

I want more energy. I'll be honest , some days I can't even fall asleep I'm so naturally energized but other days I plummet. People think I look 30 ish but I feel older for sure. I will have a photo on here soon. New phone.. good luck to you and all that great energy stuff! Jealous

It's definitely more tough with age!! You are right! 37 next week and wow Some days I feel it.

Yes, it was excluding exercise. Prob close to 3000 with exercise. I'm overdoing it and under eating. I'm going to be less strict with my intake. You're right. Thanks for your insight and attention.:)

I have been sitting here thinking about it and after doing the bmr calculator and finding out what my personal caloric needs are plus reviewing my past experience, you're right, I'm going to stop overdoing it and give myself a less strict intake. That's the only way to happily maintain this venture. Thanks for the…

Right, good for you...maybe that's it .

Thank you for this calculator. I just checked it out.. so I'm a bit muscular, wide bone frame. It said laying in bed all day I would burn 1600and change.. I've been eating 1500 and probably 1800 on the days I exercise for an hour. The calculator said I need 2200 intake for my caloric needs..and with my bmr working anyway..…

Good idea, I might have to try that certain times of the month too... It's like I have a busy hangover today. Headache and all.. I drink loads of water.

Thanks for responding. I'm eating 1500 calories and am 30 pounds out of the healthy for me range in weight. It's frustrating. Hormones could be a factor like one of you mentioned. I am getting my monthly soon but other times I'm not expecting it. I'm getting the guidelines for cars, fats, protein that this site recommends…
