How Many Calories One Year Out?

@@Alex Brecher thanks! I think I am going to bump up the calories. My weight loss has come to a grinding halt as of late.

@@Indieflickers - I am in the same situation and I just started weighing out the food again, not just eye balling the portions.

I have been eating a bit more Protein and calories and it looks as though the scale is starting to cooperate.

Great job by the way

@@jane13 thanks! I find weighing good immensely helpful because it keeps me honest. And I like to be super precise because I'm really anal retentive

@@Indieflickers - I had the inexpensive little scale I had grabbed at Walmart for $5 in my early post-op days and I literally JUST went and spent about $20 for a digital one, I am "AR" as well

I didn't like not knowing the exact amount.

My daughter was at my house a couple of nights ago and saw the digital scale and a bunch of little 4oz serving cups and snack size ziplock bags and said "Mom, are you REALLY weighing your food out?"

"Yes" - she smiled, is also "AR"

And I weigh my food.

Did upping your calories help? I feel like I've stalled from not eating enough for my workout. I work out 6 days a week, an hour a day, half cardio, half weights.
