AH HA! I've discovered something!

Yes, you are right on the weight. I set a short goal. I just can't look at the overwhelming picture. I set 5 lb ranges for myself. I think I'll change it to the long term goal and see what it says. Thanks.

What I discovered. I AM SO STUPID! I was looking at the base basal number and not adding in lifestyle numbers or anything like that. No wonder the number I got when I did the calculation Allison gave was so far off. Now it's within about 30 numbers. DUH! I feel better now.

I don't know that it makes any difference. It was just bugging me that your numbers by her calculation were pretty close and mine weren't.

Ladies, thank you so very much for ALL the input.

Geez, this journey is a HUGE learning experience.

I'm so glad I have all of you for support for my stupidness.
