Lost 1.8 last week. Now I'm at 157.0. Really worked out some kinks in my calcs and my activity level.
I already shared this once but I thought I would share with you guys again in case you would like to try it.
Harris Benedict Formula= BMR*Activity-calories in=weight loss
Activity is as follows:
0-1 workouts= 1.2
2-3 workouts=1.375
4-5 workouts= 1.55
5-6 workouts 1.6
6-7 workouts 1.725
Hardass=1.9
I had 5 workouts last week so I'll take 1.6
My average caloric intake was 1539.
So plug the numbers
(1490*1.6-1496)*7=1.78 (i.e my weight loss for the week!)
It works you guys. Try it. If you are a little confused with the formula you can send it to me and I'll send you my spreadsheet for you to plug the numbers.
Next week I want to up the weight loss a little so I think I'll try to watch my intake of bread, pasta, and rice. I think this will only eat those before noon and see if my weight loss accelerates to 2.5. They say as long as the weight loss is under 3 pounds per week that you aren't losing muscle. How are you guys doing?
