Devised a new plan.
Out with the old, in with the new.
So fast 5 worked great to get 20 lbs off.
I am trying to get the next 20 lbs....
In must be less than out. Deficits always work for me.
So here is my plan. I am shooting for an 1185 cs deficit per day from my BMR. Since it is 1585. I am going to go 1200 cs/day. That is a 385 cs deficit. Then the only activity calories burned will be from my pedometer/watch. I will log 800 cs (any activity) per day. That will cause an 1185 deficit per day=8295 deficit per week. Which is 2 lbs/ week.
I am not going to even use the BMR calculator's activity points. I am pretty sure it is right. But I am not using it. To maintain, I would have to eat 2086 cs. with my activity level.
I know 1200 is like the maximum lowest. If I do eat over--I will compensate with activity--no plan is foolproof. So that will be my way of adjusting.
My tools to combat hunger, soup (chicken granules in water), hot cocoa and veggies. Also no drinks except water and milk.
my main exercise, walking, and home "gym"
