That's where I'm at. What to do?

did you weigh yourself when you started?

science deniers😷

trust the science dude, I still social distance and wear a mask. Haven't been sick in months!

I haven't tried a fast yet. Let us know how your energy levels are during. thanks

My last 4 weeks at a weight lose stall kinda leads me to believe that my metabolic rate tries to align the best it can with my calorie intake. I think we have a metabolic "brain" that acts in its own self interest and wants to be in a homeostasis environment. So shocking the metabolism with seemingly random inputs could cause a disruption of some kind. At least that is what a calorie cycle is said to do. I guess Ill find out. All I know is extreme calorie deficits sucks after a about three weeks.

this should be fun. I tracked everything I ate today. and maybe i can get that app loaded tomorrow. I have a feeling Im gonna have to drink some calories. but I love milk so that shouldn't be a problem. Just got a powertec lever gym today 🤪. so Im pretty stoked.

Could it have been your actual "believed" daily needs were over estimated? I used a calorie calculator to "estimate" my daily need, I know that is not an exact number for me. But I believe I can get a pretty good number looking at my results after a month or so.

did you get all the stuff off your weight bench yet?

Its really not so much about the counting but "tricking" your metabolism so it doesn't slow down over the long run. At least thats how I understand it. I hope you don't mind me asking you questions about fitness pal if the time comes. As far as this program being challenging, not so much because the types of food we eat is so limited. for example I already know how many calories are in my cup of coffee. Now i just have to weigh the beef I consume and track cups of milk, eggs, bacon, butter and that's basically it plus any odds and ends items. I suppose carrying a phone and entering the items/weight on a tracker may be easier than using paper and pen.

Im going to get my numbers together and start a calorie cycling program, basically 3 days of maintenance calories and four days of slightly lower than maintenance calories. because my body has almost come to a stop eating at a deficit everyday. that means here comes the protein powder and milk.

it would be good to always have an accountability partner to walk with

My body is in a stubborn period. I noticed my feet have been cold for a few days now and today I noticed my hands were cold as well. Right now Im thinking if my body wants to play hardball so be, I can play to.

I'll try some fasting, but I'll have to hide it the best I can from my wife. I quit walking in favor of sprinting, but I'll jog now. I'm gonna just start weighing my meat for awhile and possibly use some whey isolate in the future and see how that works. thanks guys

I just ask cuz I know Im at a calorie deficit and Im guessing that has slowed my metabolism so much so that now Im losing weight very slowly. And I want to see if I can speed up the weight lose. I have my eye on a home gym.

its weird i have chicken of the sea sardines and the can says product of poland

how do you guys track.. app?

I will start counting. with a initial target of 160 grms of protein per day. which is 640 calories. Ill probably have to supplement with protein powder. and the remaining calories from fat. but I don't yet know how many total calories I should eat in a day.

I hear omega 3 is important, how important I don't know. but I figure ill eat a couple cans a week. I get a can for 1 dollar.

I started to following ellie phillips dental protocol and after 4 days my gums really hurt, so I quit. So Orweller have you noticed and differences using boka? what are the differences? thanks

have not shampoo'd my hair since this thread starting. Today I asked my wife to smell my hair and she said it had no smell. Im using coconut oil on my skin, sealed with a light coat of vaseline. seems to be fine. Also turned down the heat in the shower.

tempted but no😀

how bout sardines in a can? I hear they're safer

Im so weak Geezy, but I don't care right now. Im just sprinting and lifting what I can every day. My muscles are responding. Im mainly focused on loosing another 10 lbs.

stay clear of the kitchen and eat meat or fat or butter when tempted. My wife is the same way. And I have no cravings other than maybe milk.
