Hi Kirsten, Your situation regarding reducing calories brings up my big quarrel with equating calorie intake to 10-12 times body weight: As we lose the weight, do we have to go on a 'diet' and lower calories so we are in line with the 10-12 guideline? There is a discussion on this topic over on the Atkins board that might be helpful to you.
I don't count calories at all, but even if I did, I would never ascribe to the 10-12 suggestion--either as a limit to calorie intake or as a 'forced' maximum. I eat good, non-processed low-carb, adequate protein, veggies, etc...until I feel full.
