I weigh a whole lotta pounds, at 170. I do not want to be this low, but I am slowly losing more weight. Am I underestimating my calories burned? Maybe I should not adjust down as much what my watch is telling me? I am much more active now than I used to be, so maybe I should move up my daily maintenance calories to about 2500 from 2300? Both can accomplish the same purpose, but which one would be the best explanation of my weight loss. I am thinking of increasing my maintenance calorie level to 2500 calories to see what happens. This would make for the biggest difference.

So far 10,261 steps. I have both run intervals for 2.76 miles and walked briskly for about 1.41 miles, burning a total of 396.5 calories. I do think this is conservative. However, let’s see what happens with the maintenance calories increase. So I definitely have made up for half of yesterday’s overage with some to spare. No soda for me today. What a waste of calories! Water is healthier anyways.
