[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here.  Weight currently 155, would like to get back to 140 (I'm very muscular, so that's thin for me).  I probably could move a lot more in addition to the workouts, that's a good point.  Not sure what my macros are;  usually I get 80-100 grams of protein a day, which should be plenty.  I[b] don't weigh my food, but I track every bite! [/b]

Other than that, I guess this is my new reality--watch my diet like a hawk, move more, as few carbs as possible.  So depressing.[/quote]

OK so your " I eat 1500 cal" is really an estimate.

To get to 140 you need to eat between 1400 and 1680 calories.

track everything you eat (weight, measure) for a full month, Also track how consistently you stay in this range. You should be hitting this range 90% of the time so no more than going over 1 days a week. If you don't see any movement on the scale (i recommend weighting daily and tracking the trend line over the course of the month)  after doing this for a full month adjust down by 100 cal on each end.
