Just a note to others reading this. It is amazing to look back at what I am not eating each day that just ramps up the calories. Each Wednesday the office gives us Panera bagels. These are 300 calories on average without any flavored cream cheese. Easily 500 calories that seems like a snack. I count chips at the Mexican restaurant at lunch instead of eating the entire basket, I weigh snacks at home and have cut the alcohol content. I still drink beer and wine, but just less. Some of the craft beer I drink is 200-220 calories per 12 oz. Banking my calories for the day makes a difference if I have a meal out planned that evening or want that second glass of wine. Just food for thought.

I weighed about 225lb in 2008. Started eating better and exercising and dropped to somewhere in the 180-190 range. Got on FatSecret, set a goal and got serious tracking food back in 2012. After I hit 170 I set another goal to see if I could get to 160 and hovered from 160-165 until last fall when it started creeping back up. I am a runner and soccer player and remember how good I felt at a lower weight and I want to get back there. I don't know if I will ever PR a Half Marathon again, but there is always the fall or early 2016 to repeat what I did in 2013.

Good Morning! That is an excellent observation. I not only chart my calories, I chart my protein fat and carb intake. This intake changes based upon activity levels. We cannot all eat like Michael Phelps (the Olympian) and do no activity. Healthy Food Choices IS KEY. Healthy Food Choices is a lifestyle, not a diet...Keep it going....

I was never too concerned with my ratio of protein, carbs and fat, but one day I noticed how heavy I was on the carbs. During half marathon training in 2012 I managed to up the protein and trick my body into burning it instead of carbs. It worked rather well and built a lot of muscle.
