I found a cool online calculator that allows you to put in info that generates recommended daily calorie intake for losing weight fast, losing weight at a more moderate rate, and maintaining weight. If anyone is interested, it's at How Many Calories Should You Eat Per Day to Lose Weight?

I mentioned the other day that I'm tracking my eating. My ideal daily calorie limit would be 1,200, but I am struggling to stay at or below that with my increased Seroquel XR dose. Instead, I am aiming to not exceed what the above website labels as my "moderate weight loss" calorie goal, which is likely a 1 lb per week loss rate. More doable. I figure there is no need beating myself up that I can't lose weight fast. I think that even days when I don't exceed the "maintaining weight" amounts are good.
