I've been lying

[Rev Me Up! 75]

OK, so I started logging my food again because it has been a while. I was assuming I was still between 600-800 cals a day. Ha!! Not so much...

After 2 days of logging, it looks like I magically stop eating at 900 cals. I even ate completely different things on both days and still came up wthin12 cals of each other. Very interesting. I will admit my heart started to pound a little when I saw I was at 900. But, then I talked myself off the ledge because 900 is still very restrictive. I have to eat what I am eating to keep my energy up. I am feeling so much better now than I did when I was getting 600 cals a day, so I can't be concerned about it. I am still losing 1-2 pounds a week which is fantastic!

On a side note, I have 14 pounds to go to move from "overweight" to "normal weight" according to my BMI. Holy moly - wont' that be a great day!!

Keep on truckin', everybody!

I think 900 cals a day is spot on... with a little 'bounce' either side. If my intake goes below 700 - 750 I literally feel shaky and weak... we gotta do what is right for us... well done on the steady weight loss and keep up the good work!!

I have to tell you...I have been eating 900 to 1000 calories a day. I track but my doctor does not require it. I have had a couple stalls but overall I am happy with my weight loss. I do exercise. In 4 months, I am down 67 pound. Just my opinion but I think if it's too low, I won't lose weight.

You are doing fantastic! I am hovering at 800, but seem to want to move towards 900 the last week or so... I am losing a little faster eating a little bit more...

Some lose more with less and some lose less with more - and some lose more with more and some lose less with less.

Everyone just has to find what works for each of us... as we are individuals - just like everyone else.

So if you're only to eat 3x a day .. HOW on earth are y'all getting in 800-900 calories? What's your secret??
