Dessert?

Yes.

It says 1 serving is 120 and the bag has 3 servings, so 360 per bag...

I really liked Ripped in 30, I didn't measure, but could definitely tell that it made a difference.

Fresh fruits and veggies. Less processed food.

I second the cupcake idea. Plenty of places sell single cupcakes.

Try bagel thins or sandwich rounds. Still get the satisfaction of bread with out the massive calories.

Non-Scale Victory

The BMR is what you should eat to maintain, 1290 is so that you lose weight. If you want to stay the same you should eat 1329...

The chest strap is generally in addition to a watch. I have the woman's polar FT4, and it keeps track of calories burned, heart hate and any given time, average and max HR for a work out and it keeps a log of about my most recent 15 workouts. It also has a few other things, but I use it for my time and calories burned…

Limit pasta and bread and eat more meat, cheese, and nuts

Tuna or other fish have a lot of iron and so do many veggies--especially green ones. I take a multi vitamin though because I have trouble getting 100% most days.

Mrs. Dash seasoning with chicken. Yum!

Grilled corn, no butter.

Whenever I have donated, I have not counted it as anything because it is not really burning anything that won't naturally come back in a few days. I usually work out first thing in the morning to get some extra calories, and then drink A LOT of water though.

A heart rate monitor does just that. Polar makes good ones, you should check them out.

Get a HRM, then you will know for sure. I have one, and when I compare it to MFP sometimes it gives me more and sometimes less than what the HRM says.

Plain Greek yogurt with either fruit or regular flavored yogurt or apple sauce.

You can get plain greek yogurt for 80 cals a container. If you don't like it plain, try adding cinnamon :-)

I usually have about 200 for breakfast, 300 for lunch and 150 for snacks leaving me with 550 for dinner.

Stay at sedentary, but log every time you exercise and it will make up for the extra calories burned.

Mac and Cheese with canned tuna and frozen peas :-)

As long as you have over 1200, you will not get a message about starvation mode. So if you work out and have a net of 1100, but have actually eaten 1300, you will get no message. I would aim to eat as close to your target as you can, especially because it is the minimum (1200). Going over is fine sometimes, but I would try…

You can store them in a ziplock of water. I've done that and they last more than a week. I'm not sure how long though.

quinoa!

greek yogurt, cottage cheese, oatmeal

Because MFP already factors in a deficit, and by burning off more calories you are using some of the needed fuel to keep your body running.
