1350 - I try to stay in there, too. Between 1200-1500 is usually my goal for the day. You can actually get plenty of food with that. If you eat right. Thank goodness for Boca. And apples. Did you know a cup of broccoli only has 25 calories, but like, 60% of the days vitamin C? And it's so filling. And almost every veggie and fruit is like that.
Sounds like you're doing good, Suze!

Well, I read somewhere that pair shaped women should only do upper body strength training to help balance the body out. However, I've since decided the guy who said that must've been a jackass.

Plus, adding muscle reduces the look of cellulite. Also, it does look good, you're right, my legs already look way better after a couple of months.
I do get plenty of food in, yes. I still do not eat enough fruits and veggies though, that always seems to be a battle for me for some reason. I love them too, so that it isn't it at all! No I didn't realize broccoli had that much vitamin C, cool!
Counting has really helped with my discipline. Last night I was at my limit and got kind of hungry before bed time but just sucked it up and went to bed. I lived through it!

I feel more in control and that makes me feel more confident too.
Sounds like you are also doing well, Amber!
