My weight loss is starting to slow down and I'm getting BORED with my same old meal plan every single day. It's time to shake things up a wee bit. I've always been interested in calorie shifting so I think it's time!

Now... never having done this before... help!

If I understand correctly I take my regular daily intake (1800) and times that by seven for the days of the week. So 12600 calories in a week... then have high/low and medium days in your week.

So I was thinking...

Day 1: 1900
Day 2: 1500
Day 3: 2100
Day 4: 1600
Day 5: 2000
Day 6: 1500
Day 7: 2000

Does that sound about right?

Looks good to me but I've only read a little bit about calorie shifting. I sort of do natural calorie shifting because somedays I'm just not so hungry so I eat less and somedays I eat more.

Yep. You've got the right idea. When calorie shifting, I also plan my high days around special events. I think you're going to see some really great losses in the near future.

I may have to try this sometime. I think that could be good.

I sort of do this unintentionally. I try to have a daily average of 1750 over a week's time, and the last two weeks it seems to work out this way.

Hey...Im interested in seeing if this works for you. Be sure to let us know how this goes.....and Good luck!

that looks perfect. I aline my highest day with Saturday which is the day we soemtimes go out to eat or to friends house. it sure releaves alot of stress.

[cfmama]

I'll let you ladies know how it's going (obviously.)

Today was my 1900 day and tomorrow it's 1500. I think my lower cal days will automatically mean less carbs judging from my menu for tomorrow.

Looks like a more natural way of eating. I'll also be watching to see your progress. I like the idea. May be something I will try in the future.
