I appreciate your input, protien and fiber is something I lack.  I really do think my body was in the starvation mode, I was burning 900 at the gym and eating only 1200......

I am feeling much better now that I am eating more and go figure, a pound came off  :o)

wow, i get it.................i think i have been starving my body because  I have been eating only what I am allowed and then burning  additional calories almost daily at the gym. Today is a gym day and I will burn about 600 calories so I should eat more than my 1,200 calories........

thanks so much, i really do think that I have not been eating enough, maybe that is why I have not felt great too................

The calorie total I gave 1000-1500 is the total eating and not subtracting away burned, so I guess I need to start there.  Somedays I eat as little as 800.

I appreciate your input, I will continue to read the forums and learn as I go through this process.

I am a female 52 years old, 5'8 and weigh 137

I drink only water all day long

I am pretty stressed

I sleep (on a good night 6.5 hours)

very little sugar in my food

I have been exercising for about about 18 months but have just truly committed myself about 5 months ago

I take extra fiber   Thanks for your reply.

I have them too and since I have been exercising, they are worse.  I actually had to have one cut twice in 4 months and have the clot removed (OMG, that hurt)................................ in order for it to go away.............

At 52 I look better now than I have in 25 years.........5'8" , medium frame,  my goal is 130, and maintain.  I wear a size 4 or 6 and I LOVE IT!!! 

 Could the muscle I am building keep my weight up?

a real stupid question...............according to cc I need to consume 1500 cal per day to reach my goal.  Also according to cc, it says I burn approx 2000 per day on average.  So if I work out and burn an additional 500 calories a day - do I add this to the 2000 for a total of 2500 burned for the day?  Do I still stick to eating the 1500/day?

Again, I am new  :o)

shiptona, Interesting, we are the same height, I am working on getting to 128 and I am 52.

Do you still exercise?  how long have you maintained with 1500 to 1600 per day?

Do you think burning 400-500 calories at the gym 4-5 times per week is too much?  Should I eat more than the 1,200 - 1,600 calories per day.

I really appreciate your advise, I am new at this
