I finished 14 full days on my diet again. And this week I lost 2.2 kg
= 4.8 lb. But I was sick one day this week and all I had was soup on
that day, so it's not exactly a normal week. Because of that one day
of almost eating nothing, I only averaged 1,265 calories per day this
week.
Nevertheless, if you calculate that 4.8 lb of lost weight = 16,800
calories, that means I was short 2,400 calories per day. Since my
current weight is 123.2 kg = 271 lb, that means the number of calories
per pound (CPP) I needed to maintain my current weight this week was
about (2400 + 1265) / 271 = 13.5, a bit above average metabolism for
me.
I didn't really do much exercise this week, but I did start using my
Bullworker again. I figure the least I can do is try to build up some
muscle mass because that helps with metabolism too.
So my total weight lost so far, this time around, is 3.2 kg = 7 lb.
And on to week three...
