9-way to go on your weight loss!!

I was raised in Anoka and I worked at a clinic in Andover up until 1 1/2 years ago when we had to relocate to WI--BOO!!! Looking to add friends for this weight loss journey. :)

Born and raised in MN (notice my Gopher Jersey in my profile pic:wink:) Had to move to enemy territory (Green Bay) because of DH's job, but a MN girl all the way!!!

I'm so confused on what I should have my calories set at. Based off the website from helloitsdan my numbers are: BMR: 1283 Number in activity chart: 1816. So to clarify, I should set cals at 1816 and never eat below BMR? If I set it at 1816 then I shouldn't eat my exercise cals back?? Thanks in advance!!

I LOVE my spin class--look forward to it every week. That being said, I hated it the first few times. I wanted to quit so bad because my legs were on fire! But I kept going and it's almost addicting. Stretch out really well (like 10 minutes of stretching) before, especially your quads and hamstrings. Don't forget your…

And I have the loss set at 1.5#/week.

Autumn, I just changed the setting to active and it still kept me at 1200 calories. :(
