I was 145 this morning. I am glad to be back participating in this forum. I try to eat about 1700 calories a day to lose weight slowly - if I eat any less I am starving! I have found that if I do not write down everything I eat (and use my food scale religiously) I will naturally eat 2300-2500 calories a day and my weight will drift up, even when I am exercising a lot. I average less than 30% fat and less than 7% saturated fat. I keep alcohol (wine) intake to less than 5% of total calories but only eat about 15% protein. I need to eat more protein while still keeping my fiber intake over 30 grams a day.
