How much can I safely lose by New Years?
Hi! So I'm back at calorie counting. I did well for a while, but fell off the wagon. I'm a full time nursing student, mom of a toddler, and wife of a fisherman who can eat 4,000 calories a day and still lose!

How often do you weigh in & record?
So I feel like I don't always weigh in & record consistently. I do weigh in once a week but because of my schedule I can be a day or two off each week. I do check my weight every morning so I know basically what I will be each week but sometimes I will record every 5 days or sometimes up to 7 days.

what is your logging strategy?
I like to track everything that I'm going to have throughout the day in the morning. I feel like it will give me a better sense of how the day is going and keeps me on track better. Obviously adjusting if things change.

is this normal?
My whole life I have always eaten breakfast, but now sine I started MFP I have lost the urge to eat anything in the morning. I make myself eat at least a piece of cheese, but I'm just not hungry. Should I make myself eat anyways?

Should I change my Calories?
I started running 3 days a week. I just looked at my BMR & TDEE - BMR=1502 & TDEE= 2002. I have my calories set right now at 1350. Should I up it to 1500? I haven't lost any weight in the past 2 weeks. Perhaps I'm not eating enough?

I am 5'3 and 155 and I want to lose 30lbs. MFP has me at 1200 calories a day. I just can't do it. I'm starving and wind up going WAY over my calories. Anyone else around my size who eat's more calories a day? Right now I have a bum knee so I can't exercise.
