  • Yes, the way I set up my profile is I chose lightly active (USUALLY I get in my 3 workouts a week) so I believe I am not overestimating. Since I included my workouts in the lightly active choice, I do not log and eat back workout calories since that would be doubling up.
  • Yes, I am okay with slow or even super slow loss, such as 1/4 or 1/2 pound a week. It is so hard to tell this early on if I have made any progress, even a smidge.
  • Thank you - I do 2 pilates sessions a week and one long fast walk outside or sometimes a jump rope session.
  • I appreciate all of the positive, helpful responses, as opposed to the posters who put words in my mouth and were rude. To those folks, just don't comment. Sheesh.
  • Hm, well I do 3 workouts a week currently. Thing is, I'm okay with slow changes...someone told me to give it 6 weeks...so maybe I need to just stick it out longer?
  • I measure and weigh my food already. I am over a bit sometimes but still in a deficit. I set it at 500 calorie deficit and I don't care if I only make it by 250 calories any given day, it's still a deficit for me. I don't care if it's slow progress so maybe I'm being inpatient. My high calorie day is my free meal day,…
  • Thanks again guys! @ ana3067 - I actually do sweat quite a bit during pilates - but for now, I will keep at "lightly active" and monitor how things go. @ Liftng4Lis - I totally agree...would never be able to sustain an eating plan if I was hungry every day! I'd be so miserable, ha....hangry, if you will.
  • Thanks all! Is there a in which I can log my workouts but NOT have MFP add calories to eat from them?
