Guess I was wrong again. Must still have some water weight going on because that's the only way to see such a large drop over night.
Today I get to make some goodies! I am hopeful the Almond Bread turns out well. I'm sure it will be heavy and dense, but that's okay as I usually choose whole grain wheat anyway. Will see how that turns out.
It'll be nice to let me have some sunny sides eggs with some buttered toast again!
I am using a TDEE calculator to try and calculate my daily calorie expenditure, but I cannot get an accurate reading until the weight finally levels out and I have a couple of weeks of steady and slow weight changes. Although I know I am losing fat, I have no idea how much of the weight loss is water so I cannot use current readings for those measurements.I'm not going to figure the water loss is done this time, lol, and just keep at it. It'll be done when it is done. It has been a week though almost, I would have thought the glycogen stores would have all been depleted days ago.

Part of TDEE is knowing your BMR which requires knowing your lean body mass and body fat percents. Good luck sorting it out. You have been doing well!

Well I had my RMR tested a while back at a lower weight and it was about 1920. At about my current weight I had an RMR test and it was about 1980. So I'm figuring 2,000 calories is a safe daily intake for steady weight loss.
There's a fancy calculator in an excel sheet, I'll have to find the link as I have already downloaded it a while back, but if you input your daily calories eaten and your daily weigh in it will estimate your TDEE.
It seems pretty accurate but it takes time to generate the data needed to find the TDEE. I tried it out with data I had previously collected in FatSecret and did some of my own math to compare and it seems to be a good estimate of one's TDEE. When in a dieting phase, though, I assume that my TDEE is a little lower than the average as I will have lost some mass each week. I noticed the TDEE go down slowly as I lost more weight, which seems to confirm this hypothesis. I like having numbers to work with because it helps me to make decisions and it gives me confidence that what I am doing is working as I can see statistics that confirm progression.
