VaraAnn's Journal, 12 April 2023

Tried my best to do better. I was realizing that my calorie intake has plateaued, that I'm not in a deficient like I was when I was 265.

My theory on calories. If I want to weigh 300, I have to eat 3000 calories a day.
If I'm 219, and my calories are at 2000-2100, I'm just maintaining that same weight.
I need to try to get back to doing 1700-1800.

I just looked into how many calories do I need to eat everyday to get to 170 by September. One website said 1000 calories a day. I ain't doing that >.> thats unhealthy. A more reasonable 1500 a day will get me to 170 by January.
219.0 lb Lost so far: 46.0 lb.    Still to go: 49.0 lb.    Diet followed reasonably well.

Slow and steady wins the race :)

I know most of us at one point or another chase a number on the scale. As that's almost what defines us to some people. One thing I would keep in mind is a plan that will last a lifetime. Getting down is great but most do it with crash dieting then gain all of the weight back. Take your time and make sure you make it a lifestyle change that is sustainable long-term. Not saying you're not doing this. But just wanted to be sure. Well wishes to you moving forward.
