That's the weight I'm at this am. That's 4ish pounds. Not too bad.
Going to the gym today to run my buns off. Still going with the low carb thing - although I've been reading that carb/calorie cycling is supposed to be really good for fat loss. From what I can tell, you do 3 days (more or less depending on you) of no carbs (or less than 20g) and low calories, followed by 1 day of higher carbs (somewhere around 80-100g) and higher calories (increased 500cals from the low days).
So....if I'm doing 800cals and 20g carbs on low days, then after 3 days or so (which is usually when I binge anyway), I could increase my cals to 1300 and carbs to 80g. Interesting theory.
I read on someone else's blog that they follow low carb/cals until the scale doesn't move for 3 days in a row. That worked out to 6 days of low carb/cal. She then followed that with 6 days of high carb/cal. I think 6 days of a "refeed" is too much for me, but it seemed to work for her.
Now that I'm feeling better I may have to give this a try...who knows? Nothing else has kept me from the bingeing cycle yet. Maybe this would help that since I would know in advance that a higher day was on the horizon? I'll keep it posted.
Thanks to you guys who have wished me luck, given me a boost up, and sent "feel better" wishes!!
