1500Cal
Hey Everyone, Just had a quick question regarding my calorie intake. I seem to struggle with 1500cal a day! find myself very hungry and it leads to me overeating the wrong things sometimes or "snacking on random things" <---not an insane amount but still a bit more than I should be.

Weight on, Weight off.
Hey Everyone, I was just wondering if anybody else finds they put 1 - 2 lbs on and then the following week drop 3 - 4 lbs every now and then? I am a bit frustrated as I stuck to MFP religiously and over the past week I put 2lbs on!?! Could this be water weight? (I know it's not a huge amount, but the small increases add…

Exercise Goals?

Calorie deficit.
Hey everyone, I was just wondering whether you think 1850 calories which MFP has generated for me sounds like the right amount to have/stay under? Im not sure whether it seems a bit high? I am quite active but I feel like I eat quite a bit! Thanks
