Wow ... sort of way off what I've been doing ... found this website on yogamama's journal. http://nutrition.about.com/library/bl_nutrition_guide.htm

You need 2171.5 calories per day to maintain your current weight without exercise.
You need 2043.9 calories per day to reach your goal weight slowly and maintain that weight without exercise.
If you reduce your current caloric intake to 1671.5 calories per day you will lose one pound per week without exercise.
If you increase your current caloric intake to 2671.5 calories per day, you will gain one pound per week.
Exercise and Calorie Needs If you exercise for 30 minutes each day, you may increase your caloric intake to 2431.1 calories per day and still maintain your current weight.
If you exercise for 60 minutes each day, you may increase your caloric intake to 2755.5 calories per day to maintain your current weight.

One gram of protein has about four calories, one gram of fat has about nine calories, and one gram of carbohydrate has about four calories.

Interesting article. But I cannot eat that much, without exercise and maintain. I have a sluggish metabolism so that may factor into it.

Actually ... you input your height, weight, age, etc into the website. What is above is for me at 5'10", 50 years old, weighing 205 and wanting to weigh 175 ... yours would likely look quite different!!

Now I get it. By the way, I am 5"9", we are tall gals. Being tall is nice, we never look like we weigh what we weigh. :-)

Indeed WECANDOTHIS ... we are tall gals!! It does seem like folks often underestimate our weight ... must be because we have more places to hide it???

This may be bad depending on how you feel about math. I ran some numbers based on your calendars and weight history. I use these numbers to see if my calorie and exercise estimates are accurate.
Here we go:
Days on FS: 69
Total Estimated Kcals eaten: 78,433
Actual Wt Loss: 33 lbs (amazing) BTW that's 1 pound just about every 2.12 days
Actual Deficit of Kcals needed for 33 lb loss = 33X 3500 = 114,100
Stay with me...
Total Actual Metabolism Based on your food estimate (78,433) and your actual loss (114,100) = 192,533. This is how many calories your body ACTUALLY USED (Given that your food estimates are good)
GUESS WHAT: You used that over 69 days or WHAAA LAAA:
192,533/69 = 2790 KCALS/DAY
And it is a real number based on the way you estimate Kcals in your food journal on FS. I stress this is not based on ht/wt/age guesses...this is based on YOUR REAL DATA.
2790 -- Keep estimating the way you do and this is the number you need to stay below to lose weight. It will change as you lose more but over the last 2.5 months. This is it.
Hope your head didn't explode...

WHOA!!!! I messaged you back. I had missed this post ... that is some fancy ciphering you did!! Thanks!! So basically if I stay below 2790 calories a day ... as long as I am exercising that is ... I 'll lose?
28 maalis 09 jäseneltä: madaboutmoose

Yeah....2790. So 1400 is WELL below. It is still a pound every 2.5-3 days.
29 maalis 09 jäseneltä: jchickos
|
Yes ... 1400 certainly is WELL below!! LOL!!! Perhaps I could lighten up some??? Tee Hee!!!
