    Hi there...it is just me again..coming to bug you. :)

    At a party last weekend a VERY petite friend of mine who exercises about as much as me (but she is half my size) said that she eats 2000 calories a day to maintain her weight. I was floored...how was this possible that she could eat so much when she is so small!?!

    So...since then...it has sorta been nagging at me.

    Then, this past week or so I noticed something weird....I have only lost weight on the days after I increased my calories...which I thought was weird. I usually eat 1200-1300 or so a day. But...one day this week I did 1900 and another day 1700....and was down one pound after each of those days. I am doing a bit more exercise than normal this week, too...but still...seems odd about the calories.

    I am thinking...more and more...that these articles makes sense. Food for thought, anyway:

    and

    http://www.personal-nutrition-guide.com/weight-loss-and-metabolism.html

    My Basal Metabolic rate (according to fitday.com) is about 1620. (It used to be higher when I weighed more..when I weighed 253 it was 1900).

    So....anyway...interesting stuff. I might post about this on my blog at some point...but till then, wanted to share with you. And...know that the spirit of my post is "helpful"....not "critical".

    I am learning too....just live everyone else out here on this journey. And...if I can eat MORE and still lose weight..and even lose weight faster...I am all for that. !!!
