Default Day 35 and still 19 pounds gone

265/246/200

Still 19 pounds gone as of this morning. (That is, no lower weight.)

I just got back from three and a half hours of snowshoeing and this
time the journey was great! I probably had too many calories yesterday
and today (3300 yesterday and 1500 calories by 1p.m. -- mostly sugar)
but my legs felt great today. Not at all like two weeks ago when I was
utterly exhausted, extremely dizzy, etc., after about 3 hours of
snowshoeing. So next time I go snowshoeing or hiking, I'm definitely
going to make sure I have enough calories.

So I will have to cut down calories from now on and in the week ahead
to make up for yesterday and today. Very interesting experience for
me, the difference between today and two weeks ago.

I hope everyone has a great day today and a great week tomorrow! I
hope we can all be "good enough for long enough" to improve our
health!

Yours,

Caleb

You should use a computer program like Fitday to count the calories.

Food portions should be weighed.

Cubit -- Thanks for your suggestion. As of tomorrow, my calories are
going to be much lower and more defineable. Today I had a hard slog
with snowshoeing and I went off my caloric regimen. Tomorrow I'm back
on it and will have much fewer calories.

I limit my food choices and so am fairly aware of the calories in what
I eat and dirnk. Also, I usually keep track of my calories.

Yours truly,

Caleb

What is your calorie average, Caleb? Counting calories is the way to
go for me. Fibers, a lot of water, vegetables and fruits also help me
reach my goals.

Mike -- I'm sorry. I thought I answered your question once but when I
checked, I wasn't sure it was posted. My fault.

I think I'm averaging about 1200 to 1500 calories a day. Not too bad
for me. I agree about a lot of water, veggies, and fruit -- such as
apples -- are good.


I usually skip lunch without much hassle. As I have noted before, Mark
Mattson, a neuroscientist with the Naitonal Institute on Aging -- said
that he has not regularly eaten breakfast in 20 years. Actually, this
makes interesting reading if you have never encountered his work:
************************************************** ********

Update: Mark Mattson, the NIH National Institute of Aging scientist
who conducted the study, says skipping meals is probably beneficial.

Nevertheless, Mattson said, "I would be very confident in saying
that healthy adults don't need three full meals a day and would be
better off skipping one or two. When you go without food, there are
benefits. Your cells become more efficient. I haven't eaten breakfast
for 20 years."

Mattson said a study is being planned to test the effect of
fasting on people. The plan is to compare the health of a group of
people fed the normal three meals a day with a similar group, eating
the same diet and amount of food, but consuming it within four hours
and then fasting for 20 hours before eating again.

************************************************** ***

The above is from: http://www.futurepundit.com/archives/001201.html
but it made fairly big waves in health circles, I think.

Turns out that a lot of what people think about proper eating habits
is probably not true. Skipping meals may allow people to be more
resistant to Alzheimers, concussions, etc. Certainly it's not the
dreadful tragedy that so many of us think that it is.

Good for you and your progress!!! Keep it up!!!

Yours,

Caleb
