Been meaning to post in here.
Earlier this summer I started tracking my food daily. I was consuming around 3200-3500 cal a day. Only lifted 3-4 times a week for 45min to an hour. My weight was maintaining at 252 so I know my calorie intake was good for my day.
Well I did a fat lose/calorie deficit for 4 weeks. Dropped my calories down to 2500 a day a kept doing 200g of protein a day. Didn’t change what food I was eating just how much. Well I lost 13lbs and 6in off my waist. Down to 239! Gained muscle size in my legs and arms which was a plus. Slowly adding calories back into my day over that past 2 weeks now (back up to 2800 now) and still staying at my weight. Going to do a longer one post holiday season so trim out more.

How much of those calories was beer? lol
In all seriousness congrats on the weight loss. It’s good to see with just reducing calories. Iv been on diets in the past with major food changes but always fail eventually. I love my beer, chips and pizza too much.
I need to try this.

lol no alcohol sadly during this cut. The beer adds to much calories to the day and the protein and food was more importantHow much of those calories were beer? lol

Let us know how it goes. I honestly ate whatever I wanted but for calorie sake it had to make sense into my day. Weighing and tracking your food even the day before helps a lot. I use an app called Cronometer. Makes it easy to keep track. Here is a screen shot for example of my day earlier this weekWill do. Definitely interested in anything that I can stay on track and still eat what I enjoy every so often. Thank!
Sounds good.
