On calories. I do 1200 cals a day it always tells me off when I eat under by like 3 cals but I tend go 20ish over. Do you try to get spot on or just try to get close over or above?

At 1200 its best to be over otherwise you risk going into starvation mode. I'm trying 1450 so I have room to be under ... But that rarely happens![]()
Haha I know what you mean. I'll keep with into for over. Then next week if my Dr tells me to up it I'll feel like I'm in heaven![]()

There's a really good fat2fit radio podcast about cals and BMR cals. Strangely eating nearer your BMR cals is much better.

Personally I would put the BMR and ignore the exercise cals and treat them as a bonus

Ok I may drop it to 1400 as I feel like in eating to much. As nice as it is, it can be a slippery slope for me.

What I meant is that I tried to eat 1600 cals today and found it too much and it made me feel bloated. So I'm going to go down to where I'm comfortable. I see my Dr Thursday and so ill ask then what she thinks is the best course as for 7 months I only ate 600,1600 is a big shock. It's all confusing this cal stuff lol
