So, I did a few calculations; I've been at this for 14 months now. During the first 7 months, I ate within 99% of my RDI and I lost 53.7 pounds, an average of 7.7 pounds per month. For the last 7 months, I've been averaging 10% over my RDI and I've lost 15.7 pounds, a little over 2.2 pounds per month. A difference of 38 pounds over the same period of time by increasing my caloric intake by 10% (no change in my lifestyle). I guess this clearly tells me what I need to do, doesn't it?

nice analysis. however, it is normal that your weight loss slows down because your metabolism starts to adapt to the new intake.

Well Hanaa, let's find out if that's what happened. 💛

I live figuring out the math :). Your weight loss will slow down but if your like me you’ll drop the 10% back to the RDI for awhile to test it out. Losing 15# is still good though!

That is interesting. I find I need to be almost obsessed with the diet for me to be successful. I'm not ready to be that way right now. I have gained about a pound a week since the "lockdown". That wasn't bad after a month when it was just 4 or 5 pounds. But now...………..

It's tough right now Fritzy, and as we all know, it's really a mind game.

Well Chris, I wouldn't say it's "fun" but I do find it interesting and challenging when I'm doing it right. Not so much fun when I totally blow it.

I am doing similar calculations and realize I have to get out walking every day. For a lot of different reasons it will be good for me to go for a walk.
