Week two of the new desk job is almost over, and I think I've got the dieting situation figured out. The big issue was needing to cut down calories due to lack of activity (transferred from a job where I'd be walking around for 8+ hours each shift to one where I'm in a cubicle). I went ahead and cut down my calories, and my body freaked out, not understanding why I was trying to get down from 1800 calories. I was good all through work, but when I'd get home I would binge eat.
I've been careful to work in exercise time here and there so I don't atrophy entirely, and I'm researching those "under desk" exercise equipment options, too.
So on here I've dropped my RDI (because the site generated one doesn't seem to want to change at all) by a couple hundred calories with the hope that I'll be able to drop it a little more every few weeks. Eventually I want my body to be comfortable with an intake of 1600 calories daily.
My next little trick to try and implement is to snack a bit through work instead of eating lunch and then binging out between lunch and dinner once I get home. We'll see how this goes.
