Hey d090882,
I have some questions about your challenge. Is there a goal date? Are you walking or running on the treadmill? I am more of a walker, but really would like to be challenged to walk more than I am currently. As far as a low-cal diet, how many calories per day are you planning, or would I decide that for myself? I am interested, just would like to know more.
Thanks.

Well, d090882, I made it and I feel fantastic! I lost 2 pounds and I have so much energy! Thank you so much for this challenge! It made me commit to daily walks and it definitely made me take a closer look at my carb intake.

blackburn23

You've got this d090882!

TonyB0588: I was also surprised more people didn't see/do this challenge. I hope you give it a try.

@d090882 Great job today!

I'm curious as to how often you do this weekly challenge? I know that reducing your calories for too long can actually have a negative effect on weight loss. I want to do that part of the challenge again...maybe in a couple of weeks?

After finishing the challenge, I set a goal to continue walking daily. Today, I walked another 6 km (3.73 mi).

d090882

Yes, you are right. Calorie restriction is one of the tools and it's better to switch between low/high calories. If you do a maintenance month - and then do a cutting month like sports professionals - it can help and will bring your hormones at an optimum level. Remember - your weight should NOT increase during this maintenance month. This means you can increase your calories but to compensate you must increase your activity. Walk twice a day or simply start walking more than 6km a day.

I'm not running 6km as I had hurt my ankle, so I'm taking it slow!

@d090882: I hope your ankle heals soon.
