Not sure about my program:is it right or wrong?

Hello all, my name is Liana. Im 5ft6in (167cm). Its already 4 days of my weight loss program. My cw is 165lbs (75kg). And my gw is 132lbs (60kg). Its a long way to go but i will stick with it. I think im doing good for the 4 days, yeah, i THINK. But is it rlly true? In fact, im not sure.

My daily calorie goal is 1200. Im excercising around 200 until 500 calories. Except sunday, i can burn off until 700 calories.

For food, usually i eat more than 1200. I eat 1300 or 1400. Sometimes 1500. But i keep under my calorie goal bcs of the excercise.

What do u all think? Is it good enough? Or maybe not? Is the deficit right? Everyday the deficit around 200-400. Sometimes 500.

Note: im not dieting my food at all. Im just watching what i eat, calculate it, and cutting it a bit.

This is my diary of yesterday:

  • Aim to lose about two pounds a week. Any more and you are probably burning muscle (and yes that is a bad thing, even for women). Keep a food and workout journal so you can track your progress. If you are not losing two pounds a week increase your exercise, decrease your calories (mostly from carbs, keep protein high), or both. Do it in small increments and give it a couple days to see if you start moving in the right direction. It just takes time and diligence =)

    Too much exercise with too little food will make you tired. You can eat a lot when you're exercising and still lose weight. I had days when I biked a lot and had to drink a lot of calories because I couldn't eat them all. I lost weight while doing that but I didn't want to lose too much because being tired in the country was something I didn't want to happen.

    We have about the same stats. Let me FR you.

    Also, I was miserable on the 2 lbs a week plan. I now aim for 1 lb a week and am much happier and more energetic. :)
