Hi again! So I actually did some number crunching in a spreadsheet -- you can see it here: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/95798975/MHogan-MFPstats.xlsx The biggest question I took away was regarding my daily net calorie consumption.

Thanks for checking in!! Unfortunately, still no real changes on the scale -- consistently fluctuating in the 150 - 152 range. Have cut down on the running a bit and am dancing a bit more.

Haha, yes, I know there's such a thing as too much water... but that's MUCH more than I'm drinking. 128 oz of water a day is not bad for you, especially if you are exercising and sweating out quite a bit as well. Scary story, though, about the lady in that contest! :(

I use this one: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004L6NTHU/ref=oh_details_o02_s00_i01 I've loved it! I'm sure it could be inaccurate by a percentage or two, but I've been able to track progress regardless.

A great read, thank you!! Very helpful. I'll have to try this.

I've been averaging about 130 g carb, 28 g fat, 100 g protein, 35 g sugar per day. Still should I aim for fewer carbs and more protein? I also seem to go way "over" on the protein levels.
