As far as calories, I am one ...You are SO close!!!<br /><br />As far as calories, I am one of the non-trackers. I track protein loosely, and water. One of the promises I made to myself was that I wasn't going to turn this into a diet, because that hasn't worked in the past. The band controls my hunger enough that I don't really eat enough to worry too much. I am happy with my rate of loss for now, so I am going to keep doing what I'm doing!Lizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14508271987032801740noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3050229473581261213.post-38309595035382853542011-02-24T08:21:44.752-06:002011-02-24T08:21:44.752-06:00Congrats on being so close to 60 pounds down!
Usi...Congrats on being so close to 60 pounds down!<br /><br />Using really gross calculations, I should be eating around 1100 calories a day to lose a pound a week. Livestrong says I should be eating 1440 calories a day. I realistically shoot for an average of 1300 a day, but 1400 seems more like my average. I guess I'm really fortunate for my weight loss history and age that these calories work for me. (I'm losing really slowly right now, but I'm almost there!)Robinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10000853817685155586noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3050229473581261213.post-38048493252567958412011-02-24T04:09:25.732-06:002011-02-24T04:09:25.732-06:001200 to 1400 for me, when I'm counting.

I am so excited for you, I hope you see 199 soon! For the QOTD, I stick to right around 1200 calories a day--I don't count them usually, I just know what I average. Every once in a great while when I need to reset my thinking I will keep a food diary just to make sure I am being realistic. Can't wait for both of us to hit onederland!CeeJayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08108144896669458008noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3050229473581261213.post-5682013366450745352011-02-23T17:30:34.508-06:002011-02-23T17:30:34.508-06:00I try to stay under 2000 calories to maintain my w...I try to stay under 2000 calories to maintain my weight:)Toyin O.https://www.blogger.com/profile/08429675861306256504noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3050229473581261213.post-34495038696266357412011-02-23T14:34:55.334-06:002011-02-23T14:34:55.334-06:00Woot!
