actually STICK to my calories... 1500/day... i'll go up to 40g of fat... quit eating when i have fufilled my fat intake if it happens before the calories, or quit when i have met my calendars (i'm changing my cals to 1500 from 1400... i'm still going to try to stick to the 1400, but not feel bad if i am between 1400-1500 cal/day. if i eat 1700 cal/day then i can meet my "target" by August 1st. but we'll see)
