Week 16 Results
Time to change things up
Date: 4/20/2009 12:25:02 AM ( 15 y ) ... viewed 3409 times Well it's been 16 weeks since I began this weight loss journey. It was an average week for weight loss so I have decided to shake things up a bit and go back to the basics. To start with, I have decided to start getting up at 4:45 am once again and doing morning cardio before I eat breakfast. I have gotten away from that the last eight weeks or so in favor of doing just afternoon cardio. My days just seem to be getting a bit more hectic so it's best to revert back to the morning regimen. I also intend to continue my afternoon cardio, for a double dose once again. As I get closer to my goal, it just seems to be getting tougher to cut the fat, so I am hoping this will shake things up a bit. I am of course sticking to my weight training, as it is something I really enjoy doing and it makes me nuts if I have to miss a day. As for my diet, I think I am going to try a couple of weeks of cycling. I did a high calorie day yesterday and had a cheat meal. I probably took in around 2800 calories, which should also help to shake things up. The next three days I'll stick to 2200 calories and then on the fourth day I'll do a calorie bump to around 2600 calories, and then back to the 2200 for another three days, etc. I'd like to have one of those 15 pound weight loss weeks like you see on the biggest loser, but I know that's not going to happen. I'm to the point now that I have to remain incredibly focused on my goal and remind myself everyday why I am doing this. Fifteen more pound to go. Here are the week 16 results.
