@pav8888, thank you for the discussion. It definitely gave me some things to think about. I guess it is just really an ongoing experiment with what works!

@PAV8888, It would work out to 0.78% of body weight per week, and the deficit would by 36.6% of TDEE. What all that means, I have no idea... It took a long time to put all this weight on, so it is only right that it will take a long time to come off. If I can lose 5 pounds a month eating on average 1554 calories then maybe…

@Retroguy2000, you make a good point. All of it goes out the window if I don't stick with it. And yes, lifting 3 x per week, plus 1 x per week Pilates. Protein will definitely be key.

So then taking what I have learned here, my TDEE 62,582/29 days in February = 2,158 per day. I would love to hit 200 by the end of March, so that is an additional 7 pounds loss. 2,158 x 31 days in March = 66,898, 66,898 - (7*3500) = 42,398 42,398/31 = 1,367 rounding down. I guess I have found my new calorie goal!

@Retroguy2000, that is perfect! Thank you. @pav8888, that makes sense to me! My geekiness will continue on to March...

@mtaratoot, thank you. It feels good to trust the process, and see actual data to back it up.

@cmriverside, that is the beauty of the NHI planner, it accounts for your TDEE changing with your weight loss. @retroguy2000, I have been doing this since the start of the New Year, so my February results will be real. Interesting point about my TDEE. Below is the data with my actuals included. The predicted weight loss,…

@retroguy2000, thank you! I used the Body Weight Planner from the NIH to calculate my forecasted daily weight loss and calorie expenditures for 2024. https://www.niddk.nih.gov/bwp I am pretty diligent about my calorie tracking so I am guessing if there is a discrepancy it is from extra calories burned during exercise.
