I am back to my old calorie goal of 1450. Having a goal of 1600 was not good for me. The calorie goal is exactly that- a goal. With my goal at 1450, I am probably consuming somewhere between 1400-1650 everyday. I do not count and nor do I want to count every last calorie I eat. I would like to focus mainly on the major components of a meal. If I have a dallop of ketchup it shouldn't make that much of a difference and it saves me time not trying to decifer every last calorie I consume. If it's a fat heavy sauce, just call it a tablespoon of mayo, etc. Anyways, I definitely learned that if my goal is too high, I do exceed it and I am no longer cutting. That's fine for a diet break or even maintaining. I should start to see the numbers going down again.
