| Re: 5 weeks on!! no I have not talked to a doctor. I also do not have a bunch of skin sagging. I think part of the deal that alot of people dont understand is that i was previously in very good shape. 6 years ago. the pic on my profile is of me when i was 20 and 175 lbs. i got up to 266 lbs and now i am trying to get back to what i was before. alot of my weight is muscle already.. And i'm serious when i say that the way i am eating 500 calories a day is not starving me. here is my daily routine. does it sound like starvation?
breakfast:
4-5 egg whites with water and coffe
80-90 caloreies
lunch:
salad without cheese,croutons or dressing
120-140 calories
dinner:
1 boiled chicken breast w/ sauteed onions and mushrooms
200-240 calories
toal 470 calories
if i have a snack it is a green pepper or tomatoe
sometimes even a granola bar that is 130 calories, so sometime i do go a little over 500. I only drink water and coffe all day. and i dont snack after 7-8:00pm. I am taking a dietary supplement and multivitamin everyday.
also I work out almost every day and run as much as possible.
it really does work and i am not starving.
as for when i get to my goal weight how will i keep it off?
I dont plan on going back to eating like an idiot again and being unactive. when i get down to 190 i am going to increase to 800-1000 calories and start building more mass. but my true goal is to be able to maintain 180lbs. and be able to cut to 170 lbs. because that is the weight i will be fighting at.
my pic is now on my profile
