Graphic Designer/Web Developer ... So if I move from my desk, it's intentional, lol. I recently began trying to get in at least an hour or so on the treadmill during the day.

Thanks so much for the link!!! I just went through an incredible article that really broke down what's going on. It's hard to think eating the daily calories would be difficult, but when you've only eaten a very small fraction of why your body really needs to be "healthy".... 1600 calories looks like a gigantic task!

Good evening Catherine, Thanks so much for the response and sharing your experience. I think it's going to be a matter of trial and error to get to where I need to be. I think I will start gradually increasing my calories while monitoring my body's response to the change over the next few weeks. Atleast if it starts going…

Hi Michnthecity, Well actually, I made an account back in January, but just started really using this website for the first time a few weeks ago. Up until recently, I have been just increasing my exercise regiment and recording everything in a little notebook of mine. At any rate, no worries, I certainly take no offense…
