Ok, to shorten my story about 1 1/2 or so ago I was 400 pounds. I am now 195 or so, and for the longest time the way I have been doing things has been working fine. But I am trying to lose more weight (185 is goal). I am EXTREMELY active, I will list my schedule here.
Breakfast usually consists of about a Cup of Cereal and (skim) milk, with a glass of orange juice. Considering I eat lunch only a short time later it is why I don't eat much there.
160 Cereal
110 Juice
270
Lunch - A Wrap with w/e deli meats we got in the house, with a slice of cheese, we usually buy low sodium ham (my fav ) and I would usually bring a banana or some cheerios.
Wrap 110
Ham x3 (piece) 90
Cheese - 90
Banana/Cherrios 90
so 380
Dinner is all random, I could have something good or bad, it all depends, though my family does it healthy most of the time, but I'd say dinner usually has rice, which is about (my serving size anyway) 80 Cals + I have some sort of desert its winter now so usually a mug of hot cocoa, or some ice cream! (120)
Considering dinner is always the biggest meal Im going to say (with desert + rice included) so possibly 500-1000 its all random I'm afriad.
So lets say 800
380
270
800
1450 total

Breakfast (6:30)

I have read injesting to little puts your body in stravation mdoe and it preseres what it has despite what Im burning off...Im just need a positive "Ok" before I start injesting more Im afriad to gain more weight, after being what I was I'm just scared you know..? I had a test done saying I could injest 2400 cals or so w/o gaining weight by my lifestyle.
Please i'd appreciate suggestions.

I think I am experiencing a similar problem. Freetrainers is telling me that I should be eating about 4400 calories a day in order to slim up and gain definition. I have trouble even eating the standard 2000 per day. With work and school, it just seems that there isnt much time in my day to stop and have a snack. Does anyone have any 'healthy snack for a meal' suggestions without spending too much money, I am just a waiter? And sorry NewtWarrior for not offering any viable advice for ya. Although I did read that as long as you don't drop your calorie intake too drastically, you should lose weight. You've been tested at burning 2400 calories per day..try dropping down to 2300 for a week or so and see if you lose a pound, then the next week drop another 50 little steps y'know. According to what I've read you should be able to achieve a healthy loss dropping calories that way just don't go overboard!
