- Thread starter JoanC
- Start date
Good afternoon,
Yesterday I did cardio-Low impact step. Today will be disc 18 back and biceps.
I have been very happy with my eating this week. I have been eating between 1100-1200 calories for 3 days and on the 4th day going to a maintenance level of calories of 1600-1800. Tomorrow is the 2nd "4th day" so we will see if I can increase calories twice a week or only once. Or increase twice a week with less calories.

Good evening,
Just finished treadmill. Yesterday I did do disc 18-two weeks of meso 2 done. Yea.
Since May 1 I have lost 5lbs. I only put 2lb on the ticker because I would have had to raise the start weight. I didn't want to add the vacation weight and then take it off. I have gotten a solid 2lb off now at 171. It had been wavering. I believe it is now gone for good.
Today was supposed to be a higher calorie day but I only went to 1336 calories.
I have not been able to use more than 1840 calories in a day. I usually get to 2000 only when I clean the house. It's already clean.

Good evening,
It doesn't seem like I have as much time to post when I am doing wo and logging all food. Today was treadmill again.
This is 9th day in a row that I wore GWF and logged in food. Usually it is one or the other. Since for me it really is calories used minus calories eaten to lose a pound, you would have thought I would have done this sooner.
I averaged 1800 calories used last week. I would like to up that at least a little this week.

Beth I'm doing disc 19 tonight. I'm glad I started with meso 2. I just didn't like meso 1 as well and it was keeping me from starting anything. Such a simple solution-skip it.
I'm really enjoying rereading BFFM. The pictures I took for contest were very surprising because I hadn't realized I had gotten that fat. Even waist size wasn't a good measure because I had changed from a pear to an apple. A fitness writer I used to read alot once said that of course the apple shape is more dangerous healthwise than a pear. They are fatter.
I am going to try to go more by bodyfat % than scale weight. Of course to begin with I have a lot of fat to lose so scale is relevant. I will only go into muscle building mode after losing all the fat possible.
Wish me luck I am only 9 days in on the 130 days until babysitting.
