D1srupta's Journal, 24 June 2016

I'm excited to weigh in on Sunday. I know it'll be a decent drop. (I might have cheated and weighed myself, but it isn't official until Sunday so no weigh-ins!)

This Sunday I am going to have my Resting Metabolic Rate (RMR) tested again. I first had this test performed in the beginning of January when I was 289lbs. The individual performing the test encouraged me to try out Fat Secret after I explained I've been keeping an excel sheet to count my calories. I originally told her I wanted to try a low carb diet as I feel it may be my best bet at losing weight. She stated that I should instead try a more balanced diet, but later followed up with me and said a low carbohydrate diet may be just what I need. I ignored her initial advice and was already on my way with the new diet, no offense to any fitness professionals, as I felt that advice was not well tailored for my particular situation.

I haven't met this person in a little more than half a year. Based on my last weigh in, that was about 50lbs ago. I want to go in there and be like, "so maybe it wasn't such a bad idea after all". (LOL :D)

The funny "I told you so" aside, I really just want to see where my metabolism is at so that I can adjust my calorie intake if needed. I also will get a better idea of how much I can eat on my higher calorie days without being too excessive.

Yeah, D1s! Those, "Look at me now!" moments are so sweet! It'll be interesting to see what shifts are made.

You're doing awesome! I had a similar experience at my 6 month doctor checkup - he was so tickled at my 30# loss that he shook my hand and then kept patting my shoulder in congratulations! That was a fun day! Enjoy seeing the professional again and keep on smiling!
