Have I got this right?
My BMR is 1319 and my TDEE 1814. If i want to lose a pound a week I should be looking at reducing daily calories by 500 ( 7 x500 =3500). So my daily calorie intake should be 1314 which is below my BMR. Have I got this right?

Gain weight as soon as I 'go out for a meal'
I've been doing well, losing steadily until last weekend when we were away for 24 hours. A few drinks and some nice food and the pounds were back on. I reckon its going to take me until Friday to get back to where I was before last weekend. BUT we are out to dinner again this Saturday at a friends house. So the pounds will…

Late night munchies
Hi All, Ive been back on MFP for a week and have lost a pound, yay! Was hoping for 2 in the first week but hey ho. My problem is I am getting really hungry around 10pm just when I'm thinking about gong to bed. I have been having a slice of organic sourdough bread to stave off the munchies.

Butter or agave nectar?

I had a few days off which turned into a few weeks. Two months later and I've tried 2 or 3 times to get going again and I just…

How long do people stay on MFP?
I'm curious as to how long people do MFP for? Does anying know on average how long people stay on it for? I'm envisioning eventually hitting my target, hopefully stabilising but fully exoecting to go back on it as the pounds creep back on over time. Does it basically become a way of life to be successful?

Staying in!
I've realised that it's been relatively easy to stick to my 1300 cals/day since I started on January 2nd because I've not been out anywhere social or had any drinks. I've got lots of things coming up now, parties, meals out, weekends away etc. One alcoholic drink and I'll be over my daily cals, and this doesn't take…

Meeting. Targets
Hi I've been using MFP for 11 days now. At first the weight was falling off but that was all extra Christmas pounds. For the past few days I've been totally stuck despite keeping v close to the 1325 daily calorie limit. What is also demotivating me is that at the end of the day the message that comes up is just for a…
