Is this an ok way to maintain?j
I average around 159-161.
I’ll eat pretty much whatever I want until I get to 161. Then I’ll eat less for a couple days until I’m back at 159. So I usually eat whatever for 5 days and then low cal for 2 days. I’m not sure this is healthy to do, I just really like eating unhealthy food and honestly, I don’t know how else to maintain. It’s working. I haven’t gained any new weight. |
It sounds OK to me, as long as you can continue to be consistent.
The danger is if you start skipping the two low-cal days, or they start to drift upward; also, if you overeat so much on the higher-cal days that two low-cal days don't reverse the trend. Everyone has to find his or her own way to maintain. It's good to include foods you like to eat, as long as you keep in mind that some restriction will have to happen. Good luck! Good for you for maintaining! |
If it works, it works! A range of 3lbs is pretty small, it's within the normal range of weight fluctuations. I think you're fine.

If I understand correctly, you're eating unhealthy 5 days a week, and eating a smaller amount of unhealthy food 2 days a week, and not getting enough nutrients on any of those days. Eating healthy 7 days a week would be a better choice. You'll be able to maintain without being hungry, and you'll probably feel better too. Quote:
