Weight Loss Lost 4 pounds in 10 days. Jul 26 2009

10 pounds lost in 31 days!

I continue to take in 2500 calories per day.  My burn rate has been lessened due to my weight loss.  I am maintaining a deficit of about 800 calories per day, vs the 1000 per day when I started.   When the weather cools down a bit I will increase my exercise.

Sweets are my weakness too.  I keep bags of frozen blueberries in the freezer, so when I get a craving I defrost a cup in the microwave and eat those.  It is crucial for me to keep cookies, brownies, etc. out of the house completely.

Update:

18 days down, 7 pounds lost.  No change in the program: eat 2600 calories, and burn 3500-3900 per day.  I have had two days so far where I have eaten 3500 calories.

 

15 pounds to go!

I am not a nutritionist, but I've always liked the saying:

"Eat like a King for breakfast, a Prince for lunch, and a Pauper for dinner."

I think that is good advice.  I also try to not eat anything within 2 hours of going to bed.

Thanks for the replies...and the concern.

I have been keeping an eye on not getting too aggressive.  But at a starting weight of 226 lbs, a 1% loss per week would allow for about 3.25 lbs loss in 10 days.  I'm just a touch over that so I am not too worried.  2600 calories per day is hardly starving myself.

Will keep in touch.  Thanks again.
