  • Wow! Thank you all for the great advice! I will be adding a lot of your suggestions to my diet, especially more veggies and eggs. I am going to try to use the data from my Fit Bit as well to see if I need to make some more adjustments. Unfortunately, I am not a math person so this is the hardest part for me to understand!
  • I hadn't thought about letting FitBit take over. I bought it and then found out it doesn't track the elliptical, which I use regularly, and was disappointed. I have been using my heart rate monitor for exercise to try to be accurate with my calories burned. Should I eat back the calories I burn?
  • Thank you for the suggestions! I guess I thought I was eating well. What foods would you suggest? How many carbs and fats do you think I should be eating each day? I have really been struggling with keeping my carbs balanced but not having too many calories left at the end of the day. Should I basically just be eating…
  • My diary is open. I am currently 212 lbs., 5'4" and 37 years old. According to an online calculator, my BMR is 1634 and I just changed my setting on MFP to a loss of 1.5 lbs/week so my calorie goal is 1540.
  • I just opened my diary. Advice would be appreciated.
