7 hours left. This isn't too bad. Just going to hate this black coffee, I don't mind the no sugar as I don't ever put sugar in my coffee but cream is a must - oh well.

Reminder: to lose a single pound you need to create a 3,500 calorie deficit.
When I lost my 90 pounds in 2017-2018 over an 7 month period, I was vigilant in keeping track of every calorie I consumed and burned. I started with how many pounds I wanted to lose, 100. I took that number 100, then multiplied it by 3500, equaling a 350,000 calorie deficit I needed to achieve my goal. Next was to calculate my daily Base Metabolic Rate, calculators online, to know what I burned each day with my normal activity level. I think it was around 2600 calories to start. Your daily BMR decreases as you lose weight. Then I took the calories burned at the gym from the 1hr elliptical, the 30 minutes of lifting and 10-15 minutes of stretching. It was about 800-1200 per session. Next was to realistic calculate how few calories I could take in to support my exercise routine and life. It was 750-1000 intake. Then I took my daily burned and base metabolic which was around 3000-3250. Subtracting the intake from the burn left me an average of -2500 NEGATIVE calories Then took 350000 total / 2500 meant it would take me 140 days to lose the weight and reach my goal. I lost 90 over 210 days since I did not work out everyday. 4-5 days a week and also I allowed myself 2 calorie cheat days a month where I ate whatever I wanted. This is what worked for me. Now I've been doing water fast only to get back down to a weight that allows me to workout again and have energy. I've lost 65-70 pounds since Dec 4th and got clearance from my Orthopedic surgeon that I can now workout again after May's elbow surgery. |

Sparkling water Ice water Hot water Tap water Distilled water Mineral water Spring water Really you have lots of choice when deciding what you want for dinner. Side Note: Finished my 10 day water only fast last Wednesday and I feel great afterwards. Not only do I feel great physically but also emotionally and spiritually. I ended up losing 19lbs but gained 10lbs back after eating for a few days. I have lots of energy and simple foods taste fantastic. Good on you simply Red for tackling fasting in your own way. |
