"Matty" wrote in message ... "Ignoramus19922" wrote in message ... Great job Matty, I keep an eye on your progress with some amazement. I must say though, that at some point it would be worthwhile to slow down your weight loss a bit. 3.5 lbs per week is pushing it and there is no reason to be in a great hurry to lose weight. This would be a small adjustment to your plan. i How would I accomplish this? Increase my calorie intake? Right now I am at 2000 calories daily during the week and 2500 calories daily on the weekends. I was planning to increase my calorie intake in October/November for the winter... Thanks for the encouragement and advice! Matty 481/394/250 I'm curious as to why you plan on increasing the calories for the winter. I find I'm less active during the winter and usually have to keep an eye on the calories. Your current plan seems to be working fine. Your weight loss rate is still less than 1% of your total weight and considered very reasonable for your current weight. Beverly |

Beverly I figure with walking in the cold weather with a coat, hat, balaclava, & boots that I'll be expending more energy, plus the extra calories will help boost my metabolism and cut down on the chance of plateauing(according to information I've gathered from previous posts - if I am wrong please correct me). I plan on cutting down my walk route by 1/4th when the snow flies(we have heated sidewalks downtown that cut off 3/4ths of the way of my current route), but the extra weight of the winter clothes should make up the difference.

Thanks for the encouragement and advice! Matty 481/394/250 I would eat slightly more, of the foods that you like and that are rich in nutrients... Say, 300 calories more per day. It would make your dieting a bit more pleasant, not that I suggest that it is not pleasant for you... i Ig, see the previous post I left in answer to Bev's question and let me know if I'm right in my thinking.

Beverly Check out this link: http://www.holland.org/index.pl?paID=312 We've won a couple of 'beautiful downtown' awards because of it. It's nice, but kinda of a pain right now, they're in the process of extending the heated sidewalks past my office building so the road to work & sidewalks will be torn up for a couple of months. Should be done by late October (I stress 'should')... Matty 481/394/250 |
