Caloric Amount
So does anyone agree, that if you tally your 7 days worth of calories. Then stay under that total for the week, is that the same as staying under CL daily? Just wondered if it would make a difference in case a person went over one day say going out to dinner … thx

One Year Ago I Joined
Hello friends.. well, it has been one full year shockingly since I began logging my food and following the CICO protocols. I am not down as much as I anticipated but still happy with what I have lost. I have slowed down and remained at around 234 for months now. I'm beginning to think it is my medication holding me back.…

Goal settings
So I've been stuck for several months and months bouncing between 231 and 235. So back in November I adjusted my settings when I was down to 231.50 and given 1530 cal level. So now I am stuck at 237. So I just added this new weight amount and given a change of 1560 which is more than before by 30. My target has always been…

Cancker sore
Anybody have any good tips on a canker sore that developed overnight on roof of mouth? Been gargling with warm salt water.. gee, never had one of these before.

Salt
This is probably been addressed a lot but I wanted some input. If I stay under my calorie limits daily, does it really matter if I eat a lot of the dollar store popcorn each day? I know it has a lot of SALT but I like to have 3 cups after dinner to stay "regular". Because I have noticed I quit losing a couple months ago…

Calories
Looking at the reports feature. What is the difference between Net Calories and Calories? I'm trying to figure out why I have stalled after I lowered from 1760 to 1560 back in February ....weighing and tracking my food conscientiously. I will fluctuate 233 to 236 various days but never get below 233. I started last May @…

Settings
I am down 30 pounds since May 17 when I joined @ 1760 per day. I started at 267 and 237 now. At what point do I change my settings? That is 30 pounds in 25 weeks nice and slow. Male 5'10.

Rash
Seem to be getting a red rash around the left side belly fat fold.. I never had it before and wonder if it is sagging skin issue from my weight loss. It is about the size of a mouth and looks like a lips kiss.. lol --- it's not. Any suggestions on what to use on it?

Loose Skin
Down about 22 pounds now and wondering about the loose skin issues. How bad is it going to be? I'm losing very slowly, the last 15 pounds in 10 weeks.
-
Slow down
Today is day 50 and I am only down to 258 from 269. Am I being impatient? I feel my pants are loser, and I am logging and weighing food correctly at 1760 per day. In fact, I always have surplus calories of at least 50 per day. I drink 4 bottles of water daily.. plus 3 cups of black coffee.. getting discouraged.

Skin
Now I'm beginning to notice the skin above my right eye is drooping...yikes... this must be from the weight loss as my face thins. Bummer, hope it doesn't get worse... anyone else get this side effect?

Red Wine
Ok, I quit all alcohol March 1st. I thought weight would melt away but did not. So I joined MFP 17 days ago and lost 6 pounds so far. I've debating starting to drink a glass of red wine per day. Your thoughts??

One week later
One week since my last post @ 251.50. This morning @ 251 but that is ok. Went to show Sunday and saw Suicide Squad and had a half container of movie popcorn.. haha but still stayed at my 1760 for the day. So I think all that butter and salt stalled me, but I will persevere... Super Ekim is determined!!!!

Really Working Now
I am @ 251.5 now....began mfp seriously 5/17 @ 269. But went to doctor Friday and he said in November I was 284... but quit all alcohol and sugar on March 1 @ 277 Then got on my 1760 per day 5/17. So the combination of no sugars, no alcohol and CICO is really working for me !!!

It is working....
One month on MFP and today I am 259. I started at 269, and know this is a small loss of weight, but really motivating to see the scale move. I re weighed 3 times this morning because I could not believe it!! So I think 10 pounds a month is superb!! The amazing thing is at 1760 calories per day, it is not even difficult to…

Understanding Weight Loss
Hello all.. new guy. So on 5/17 I signed up @ 269 pounds. 65 yr old man. So the calculator tells me 1760 calories per day to lose 1.5 per week. Is that safe... so confused over BMR and TDEE I have stayed around 1700 per day and not gone over. Lost 5 pounds as of today... one week later. Thanks Ekim
