How many calories should I eat to lose the last 10- 15lbs?
I went from 168 lbs to 145. I would like to lose maybe 10-15 more lbs. I'm 5'6. How many calories should I be eating? Will there be a point where my body won't even allow me to lose any more such as a plateau? Do I give up and stay where I'm at? Thanks for any tips.

Is there any food item that is a "freebie" for you that you never track and still have been successful with your weight loss? For me it would be coffee but I do add the creamer. Just curious ;)

My fitness pal calories
I'm wondering how accurate the calories would be on this site? Are these what everyone calculates themselves? Sometimes I notice that my recipes don't have how many servings a recipe makes and I don't want to have to measure out how many, lol. It can be so time consuming to do that and messy for example scooping out Mac…
