Dropped RDI to 2500 calories from around 2800 to help me stay on the leaner side. I've been hitting around 100% reasonably well at the higher value but all I can figure is the FS calculator seems to be too forgiving. I'm not a camel so I know these calories are still high enough to cause my body to keep the fat.
I'm walking more now that the weather is breaking... but I've raised my weight lifting weight about 5 - 10% and dropped repetitions 20%. I'm experimenting to see if I can grow muscle and drop the weight at the same time.
I don't need this extra layer of fat. There's no looming food crisis yet!

I'm sure you know that muscle weighs more than fat. It is far more dense than fat. Don't be discouraged from lifting weights due to the weight gain it causes. Instead, maybe track your body measurements to see how many inches you are losing. You may have periods of up and down with your weight due to weight lifting. And it can cause your goal weight to change. Many people adjust their goals as they analyze their progress. That is perfectly fine so long as you are being honest and truthful with yourself.
