I weigh 174 again. Now what to do. I am becoming very thin. Not good at all. I am not ready yet to use an online calculator specifying that I am exersizing three times a week for a new calorie target. My watch should be taking care of the calories burned through exersize. Maybe the watch is understating the calories burned? I know yesterday that I did not count all of my walk due to an interruption.

I looked back a couple weeks. I have been using the MFP adjustment for daily activity for less than a week. This could of made a difference of at least a couple hundred calories or more a day before this time. For the most part, I have been only taking half of this adjustment. So I will now take the full adjustment. Perhaps I will have MFP calculate my calorie requirement for being “lightly active” instead of “sedentary” until I gain a couple pounds back? If I do, and count in exersize, I will have a pretty big calorie requirement in what I eat. Probably over 3000 calories a day. I can bring down this calorie requirement by exersizing less strenuously for now. So this is what I will do until I gain a couple pounds back.
