Weighing yourself at the end of the day is not consistent. You should weigh yourself (as little dressed as possible) in the morning, after you use the bathroom, and before you have any water/food.
This will provide you with a consistent weight, as anything you have eaten, or any water retention will have been 'handled' overnight. You'll still see fluctuations from day to day, but weighing at a consistent time before you eat anything for the day will be the best.
If you're burning up to 1500 calories, you also need to fuel your burn. If you eat too little, and burn too much, your body goes into storage mode, and will slow your metabolism. Obviously, this depends on the number of calories you've taken in vs. burned - everyone is different. |

I have no medical expertise, but I've worked out numerous times at 9:30-10:30pm, doing 30-45 minutes of DDR, only to go to bed around 11:30-12:30. I'm usually worn out after the workout, drink plenty of water, and I pass out not long after. They are pretty intense sessions, where I'm drenched in sweat after the fact. I've never had a problem falling asleep, as I am just exhausted. We do have a ceiling fan in the bedroom, so maybe that kept me cool enough, but I normally never have problems sleeping anyway. |
