Forgive me if my questions are silly. I've tried googling but can't find any decent answers. Please feel free to point me to any websites or articles that may help.
I have 35 lbs. to lose. (I have already lost and maintained about 60 lbs for the past 2 years with a combination of calories deficits and mostly cardio). I started NROLFW about 4 weeks ago. I remain perplexed about (if?) I can lose the last 35 lbs on this program. He advises against calorie restriction greater than 300/day, but is it really possible to drop as much weight as I am trying to on this plan? I concede that if I reach a size 8 in pants(I am size 10 jeans now) and my weight is still a higher number than I'd like, I would be happy to just stay there. I also admit
I guess I am having a hard time believing this program can help someone with weight loss...but I know that I have been brainwashed by years of weight loss programs. Any advice or direction to valid resources would be appreciated. Thanks!
