Counting Calories

[Ryanband07 0]

Hey Y'all

I was just wondering if everyone was counting calories? My doc told me that I should be eating no more than 900 a day. Most days I stay under 900 and there's been a few days where I've gone over a bit but, no more then 100. My weight loss seems to be steady I've been banded since 1/24/07 and have had one fill of 1.3cc in a 4cc band. To date I have lost 33lbs. I go for another fill in 3 weeks. I just bought a home gym and can't wait to get it set up and going on that. Well I look forward to hearing from y'all just curious as to what other people are doing to encourage more weight loss.

I've not counted anything and have gone from 113kg to 80kg in about 15 months. I've been really pleased with that, I only have about 8 to lose.

But years of dieting mean I know the calorie count of every food known to modern man, and by rough guessing I've eaten 1500 to 1800 a day on average - which seems to be a lot for a female but its done me fine. I do run a lot though.

However the last bit isnt budging, there does come atime when its absolutely necessary!

Yes when I worried I started counting . I would stop at no more then 1100 but tried to stop at 800 to 1000.

Now I can kinda of feel out the calories. I do stay with low calorie foods.

I snack on rice cakes. They seem to fill me up . New flavors cinnamon and sugar,honey graham and BBQ (yum).
