1700 calories a day, too much?
Wow. Never even heard of the zig zag method. I think that's what was my issue before. I'm going to give that a shot. And you were both right other websites have my base calorie intake at 1500 to lose slowly and safely. I am now excited about doing it the zig zag way. I did have a question about the zig zag method. Do I need to follow the calorie order for each day in the order they give me or can I mix it up, simply making sure that all the calories allotted are used through out the week. For example.. Monday may be a 1500 calorie day but was scheduled as an 1800 calorie but I have 1800 on Tuesday instead of the 1500 that's given... make sense?

Hi.
I'm a newbie here. Want to shed 10 lbs. I've done calorie counting years ago to lose the baby weight. The lbs crept back with my lack of motivation over time. Anyway in the past I was never given this many calories in a day - I'm calculated at 1700 at day. Oh, and I'm at low activity -(go to the gym about 3 times a week) I weigh around 134 and liked to get to 125. Doesn't this seem too high to you all as well? I was figuring I'd get 1500 at most.
