Alright - I'm starting week 13 of EM2WL. I am at 2050 calories per day with 3-5 hrs of exercise per week. Mostly cardio at this point but I have been slowly incorporating strength training, geared towards arms. Mostly meeting my macros of 50%carb/25%protein/25%fat (I need to be at 25% fat due to my gallbladder, or lack of one! and just can't get the protein up to 30% yet, but I have been working on it and have been good at hitting 25% now, so I plan to increase protein & decrease carbs as I am able)

GOOD NEWS!

I weighted in at my plateau weight of 181 after fluctuating between 182-185 the last 3 mos. My start weight in Jan was 193 (hit a plateau after 12 wks of 1200-1400 cals)

EVEN BETTER NEWS!

I have 3 less inches at my waistline! So based on the Military Body Fat Calculator, I have lost 3% body fat over the last 3 months!


So hang in there EM2WL does work - You Can Do It!

Posted in weigh-in also, so hope that's OK :)

    Thanks everyone! :flowerforyou:

    I was super surprised to see my numbers this morning. I have been trying to focus on my macros, instead of the scale or measurements. So this is really encouraging and I was hoping it would encourage some others to hang in there!
