Hey, guys....a question. I have read everything on stalls that I have seen here........my question is is it actually possible that I am eating too few calories?  In general, I am eating between 1200 and 1500 on most days. Based on my current weight 189 and age, 40, I believe I should be eating 1800 calories to lose weight(this according to websites that have those calculators for you to use to figure out how much you should be eating). I am getting in all my grains, fruits and veggies and dairy most days....and I am not hungry so I am not eating anything extra unless I still have sbd requirements that I haven't met in any given day.  I have my annual physical tomorrow...good timing, hunh? So i am going to ask the doctor what he thinks, but I thought I pick your brains as well. I have been stalled and hovering at 189/190 since about the second week i n december....I have not given up on eating th sbd way nor do i intend to because I feel healthier than I have in years. I have switched up  foods, and exercizes and exercized harder one day , then lighter the next, cut down on my cheese, thinking it was too high in fat, I'm at a loss.  I was just so excited to lose the first 35 # that I can't wait to lose more...any ideas on the calorie theory? Thanks for any suggestions or ideas you have,


Shannon

Shannon, I'm glad to hear that you got advice from your doctor, and a plan.
