Under Budget
Ok, I'm on the sixth day of counting calories and I have yet to reach 1500 calories. I am supposed to eat 1,975 calories a day in order to lost 1.5 lbs a week, and yet I can't reach 1500 calories without feeling like I'm eating waaay too much. I can't make myself eat more. It's almost like I'm terrified to see the number on the scale go up. I ate more today, I even feel like I ate too much, and yet, with the run, still under 1500. By quite a bit. The answer is of course to eat a little more. But I already feel like I ate too much. I just don't think I'm doing this right anymore. And yet I don't think I can do it any other way.

Did you lose more than 1.5 lbs in the last week that you were counting calories? If you did, then the count is right. However, if you're eating enough that you're not hungry, then stick with what you're doing. Just make sure to take a vitamin supplement to make sure you're getting all the nutrients you need.
