There isn't a flat rate tha works for every body or everbody. The reason that weight watchers works so well is because they adjust your points according to your weight. The more you weigh the more points you get. So, theoretically you should up your calories to what they recommend. The problem is everyone will give you different amounts. Which is why I don't count calories. But you should do what your body tells you is right. If you don't feel starved on what you're doing then go with it. Just make sure you're losing fat not muscle. Try some time higher and see how it feels. If you don't like the results cut back! Play with it, experimentation will get you flying! Also keep in mind, the more you work out the more calories your body will need to function properly. Just do what feels right! It might take some time for your body to fully react to the calorie decrease, so keep yourself aware of any changes. Journals are great for that purpose.

Thanks for the reply! I decided to up my calorie intake by about 500 which is still about 1000 less than I was eating before. I hope that I do not gain this week because of the calorie adjustment but like you said I am going to play with it a bit and see what happens.

Thanks again for the reply!

Everyone is doing so great! Don't forget to report your end of week results and I will calculate them all.

Did you guys want to do something like the weeks winner get to write in a special color, etc. or do you just want to announce the numbers and move on?

Also I am on the Heartbreakers challenge group and what we do is have color zones for different amounts of weight loss it is actually fun to try and make it to a certain color (why I write in red, well for this week anyway!). If you want I can make up something similar for point totals.

Just whatever you all want to do, if someone has idea about what they want to do post them.

I can't believe that Thanksgiving is just around the corner!! I am REALLY hoping to be able to get a total of 60 lbs loss by then, that would be so cool but we will see!
