Thanks everyone!!

Thank you guys so much ill definitely take all the advice i can get!

Could i get you to take a look at my food diary and tell me what you think..if you have the time that is..?

Ok so im good then going back and forth between 1700 and 1300... Im not always hungry at lunch but try to eat alittle something.

So if i gradually reduce to a stable say 1300 or 1400 a day of the right foods i could get past a plataeu?

Thanks...i really want to lose the weight an i know if i felt horrible from a drastic change i might quit or give in...i really love sweets so its already a challenge but i found ways to get around it...i just eat prunes and apples an i recently discovered dates...all in moderation of course..

I often came up short though on my daily calories eating anywhere between 1300 and 1600

I used a calorie calculator honestly an it said around 1700 to lose a pound per week and 1200 to lose 2 pounds per week...with the way i was eating before i started eating better i didnt want to drastically drop an end up with headaches an things like that.. It had happened to me previously when i tried to diet last year…

I am looking into buying a scale for sure now lol

I have only been dieting 2 weeks and lost that quickly and i dont weight anything just sort of eyeball my portions ...either 1 cup..half cup or 4th cup portions and i do log everything i eat . If i make my diary public could i get a couple of honest comments on what im eating? I went from eating alot of really unhealthy…

I am also wondering if anyone can help me with my macros im not understanding what percentages i should be eating with carbs...i dont eat bread an have a wrap everynow and then but im finding im going over my carb limits with corn and sweet potatoes an things like that...is that ok if its not such a big overage?

Thanks! I really try to log Everything i eat and have made it a point not to use any extras like condiments an what not.. I was completely addicted to sugar so when i started this diet i vowed not to eat any added sugars although i do love apples and peanut butter but in small portions... I feel like im eating correctly…
