Sounds like a great day.
Most don't sleep enough and dont realize the negative it probably has on their overall health. Said by the guy that knows he should have gone to sleep an hour ago.
Yes. I don't know how accurate it is but i have been following it pretty closely and i lose about what the app projects so I'm going to stick with it.
Makes sense. In the meantime before your post I found this calculator for just flat-ground walking at various speeds from 3-5 mph, and the same site claims here that your calories burned increase by 12% with each 1% of grade. I don't know how accurate any of it is, but it can give a ballpark figure. My incline trainer gives a calorie burn #, but it's set to Mr. krista's vitals so doesn't help me.
But I should pull it out and figure out how to work it.
Just keep working through it. I had plateaued a bit, but the last week has been very positive.
That was one of the most motivating parts for me during the times I was actively losing. People I hadn't seen in a while telling me how good I looked with the weight loss.
Like they could not imagine it was an act of will and discipline and instead maybe you have cancer.
Yep, and I know that was it and I appreciate their concern. I guess I just find it ironic that obese people almost assuredly have something wrong with them and people don't say much (except behind a person's back). I've said a few times in here that one eye opening thing to me is we as a society just accept being overweight - yes, we talk about obese people but I'd venture a guess that 80% of the population is overweight. Our views of what a normal body should look like have been warped.
Thanks. Just good to be moving again after three weeks of stagnation on a plateau. Maybe that is necessary. Hell, maybe even good as far as my body adjusting. Still, reward for effort is important to keep at something, so I am pleased, if not overly confident it is not just a fluke of hydration levels. we will see.
Keep at it DW. Amazing progress. Have you considered trying keto? It’s a miracle maker for a lot of folks.
He's on a modified celebrity diet. 44 hour Christian Bale fast, followed by midweek Dr. Atkins, followed by weekend David Hasselhoff.
I have not. I have cut out all grains, I do, however, need my fruits. When one is down to meat, fish, vegies and fruit with very minimal dairy, and no processed foods whatsoever, losing the fruits would be tough. Also, I am looking at this not so much as a diet as a lifetime eating plan. I am willing to accept slower results to hopefully get more permanent results. I suspect those who rely on ketosis to confuse their metabolisms might actually accomplish that, which may cause fluctuations after coming off, unless they can return to it on a regular and ongoing basis. I'm fine just chugging along, as long as I am progressing, even slowly, in the right direction.
Two steps forward and one step back will get you there eventually too. No shame in it.
I do it here and there. Historically I’ll go a couple weeks on keto and then I’ll bust up some pizzas and beers some sunny Saturday.
Its a new thing; 24 hour keto.BassNBrew said:
Hmmm...any background reading on your hypothyroidism hypothesis? Sure you aren’t referring to the pancreas?
Our societal standards have shifted so much, being a healthy weight is considered too skinny by many.AAABatteries said:
Your diet and overall strategy seem better than most advocated in this thread. You didn’t establish bad habits and gain the weight overnight, so it’d be foolish to expect to reverse the trend quickly. One or two pounds weight loss a week is plenty, but more importantly, you’re committed to sustaining healthy changes in your diet.Ditkaless Wonders said:
I honestly don’t have one - the whole idea now is to reconfigure what I have. I still have some abdominal fat/flab I want to get rid of. Outside that I don’t care about the number any more. I just weighed a little while ago after I showered - 159. Which means I’ll be around 157-158 in the morning. I’m obviously losing something the last couple of weeks but it’s hard to tell what. I honestly don’t want to be super skinny. I was hoping to shred some of the belly fat with Keto, some fasting and lots of running and some weights but it is slow going - I just have to be patient and understand that it will take time:
So just for @Otis i decided to crush half a large meat pizza.bostonfred said:
