Doug's Week 1 status report (again)
Seems like old times. sigh
Well, there's nothing to do but try again after losing 101.6 lb and then regaining it all is there? So I started my low-calorie, WW-like diet again last week and just finished my 1st week. Some daily stats to get me back in the journaling mood: 7/1 126.4 kg 1700 calories 7/2 126.4 kg 2019 cal 7/3 125.8 kg 1668 cal 7/4 126.2 kg 1303 cal 7/5 125.6 kg 1271 cal 7/6 125.8 kg 1714 cal 7/7 125.4 kg 1834 cal 7/8 125.4 kg (end of week 1) Loss for week: 1.0 kg = 2.2 lb Average daily calories: 1644 cal (just under my goal of keeping under 1700 cal/day on average) I use a weekly "bonus calorie" buffer during the week to draw from and add back to so I don't have to strictly observe the 1700 limit on any particular day. That is psychologically helpful. Notes: 1. The first few days were, as usual, sort of hard. Then I fell into a routine and the last 4 days I didn't mind staying on the diet. 2. I didn't do any exercise to speak of. I know I need to add that in. 3. Since I lost 2.2 lb that means a deficit of 3500 calories x 2.2 lb = 7700 calories for the week = a reduction of 1100 calories per day from my "maintenance weight." So my maintenance calories with my current metabolism must be about 2744 calories per day. At a starting weight of 126.4 kg = 278 lb that means I currently need only about 9.9 calories per lb to maintain my weight. That is fairly low. If I can do exercise and build up some muscle mass that should help improve my metabolism and maybe I can get that up to like 12 calories per lb per day, which should help improve weight loss. doug |

But if that's what it takes and you are happy doing it like this, then good: sounds like you have got your head round it again. Well done. Good loss, too. I dunno what I lost this week as the battery in the scales has died! Himself replaced it, but it was a bit late by then. Ne'er mind, I'll get there. Waist is still at 32", so 4" to go... -- Kate XXXXXX R.C.T.Q Madame Chef des Trolls Lady Catherine, Wardrobe Mistress of the Chocolate Buttons http://www.katedicey.co.uk Click on Kate's Pages and explore! |

It's just simple calorie journaling. It's no more complicated than journaling Weight Watchers points. :) I think it's 99% basically the same as Weight Watchers, except using calories instead of WW points. doug |
