    This is strictly my personal opinion, but it's a matter of works for you. I know people who do both.
    Personally, I go by gross calories. If I subtract exercise calories then my loss stalls.
    But, I know I plenty of people who go by net and do great.
    I'd try it both ways if I were you. Do a week using net then a week using gross and see which works out better for you.

    Pygo got a reaction from DELETE THIS ACCOUNT! in The band is just a help!!   
    Since being banded I am training everyday and I am eating sensibly/counting calories and I am working harder to achieve my goal harder than before the band. You know why????
    It's because I am major motivated by my weightloss, by comments from people, by clothes fitting easier, by fitting in plane seats, by staying healthy, by living longer, by being able to
    Play with my daughter.
    Don't get me wrong the band kick started all this and majorly helps Portion Control but results drive enthusiasm.
    HOW BAD DO YOU WANT IT????

    Holy cow... I am in shock. I almost cried when I saw the scale this morning because I haven't a seen a number under 200 on it since I was 17 years old.
    When I started this journey 18 months ago I was 421 pounds. Today, for the first time in 23 years, I AM IN ONDERLAND!!!
    Here is a picture of my before and after. I'm so happy right now I don't know what to do with myself!!!!

    Make sure you are being totally true to yourself when logging calories. It's easy to downplay what you've had to eat and drink and think you've only had 800 when in reality it could be nearly double. I always log slightly more calories than I actually eat so it works purely to my benefit. If you are eating only 800 and still not losing, well id maybe pick up your activity and start cycling your calories.

    I wasn't told to avoid alcohol. I am Australian, we drink . I have learnt not to drink to the point of needing to hurl (did once and that was enough) but I definitely drink.
