On 1st of March i increased my calorie intake from 1600 to 1900. First day or two i picked up a kg or so, but since Sunday i have started dropping slowly but surely.
The idea of the change was that as im loosing im becoming alot more active, which means the body needs more fuel to burn to maintain a sustainable monthly weight loss of between 4 and 5 kgs.
Also looking forward, i need to build up my calorie intake so that when i get to my goal in the next 10 months my body is used to burning and using the calories.
It doesn’t help to loose 80kgs by starving the calories and when you reach the goal you try to live a somewhat normal relationship with food, only to have that normal relationship be the cause to gain again because you starved throughout you weight loss journey.
I started my journey on 1200 cal per day, then increase to 1400 then 1600 and now moved to 1900. Its interesting how the body adjusts and still find a way to burn the extra calories and still allow for a reasonable and regular weight loss .
This weight loss journey (experiment) has really help me understand my body, and helped me to find ways to really enjoy food and luxury’s which i really enjoy.
