Used Book in Good Condition
My brother has definitely hit a plateau recently after losing about 15 lbs. I don't have a source, but I heard of plateaus being hit before some weight goals or after losing so much weight.
I am not in the position to have hit a plateau yet... I'm not even skinny to begin with, hence the strive for losing weight. I'm eating about 1100 calories a day with the help of this from I think /r/diet or /r/fitness. I write down my calories with the aid of my CalorieKing book (compliments of my endo) and nutritional facts.
The My Fitness Pal app is awesome, but before I had that, I used one of these books. It was relatively cheap and worked really well for me -- it has nutrition for name brands as well as generics like "hamburger" and "hot fudge sundae" and "1 cup grapes" etc., etc. After a while of counting calories you start to know about how many are in certain things, and if at the end of the day you're off by twenty or so calories it isn't the end of the world. As someone else said, getting close is better than not counting at all. The best thing about calorie counting IMO is that you start to really look at the types of foods you're eating, which has made more of a difference for me than the actual numbers. Good luck!
