ELMM = Eat Less Move More.
Portion control and working out now 4 days a week. Eating great food and burning 700 to 900 cals each day at the gym.
Week 1. eat 2500 calories a day and work out 3 days a week.
Week 2. eat 2500 calories a day and work out 3 days a week.
Week 3. eat 2000 calories a day and work out 3 days a week.
Week 4. eat 2000 calories a day and work out 3 days a week.
Week 5. eat 1500 calories a day and work out 3 days a week.
Week 6. eat 1500 calories a day and work out 3 days a week.
Week 7. eat 1500 calories a day and work out 3 days a week.
Week 8. eat 1500 calories a day and work out 3 days a week.
Week 9. eat 1500 calories a day and work out 3 days a week.
Week 10. eat 1500 calories a day and work out 3 days a week.
Week 11. eat 1400 calories a day and work out 4 days a week.
Week 12. eat 1400 calories a day and work out 4 days a week.
I have a lot to lose (164 pounds) and I understand it comes off fast at first but I am committed to reaching the goal and then maintaining. Im doing this under the guidance and supervision of a few folks including my PCP, a diabetes class I have been attending for the last twelve weeks and other support folks like a registered dietician. Im only taking a multi vit along with additional D and B12. No special foods (just less of it) and sweating a lot at the gym. Simple math, burn more calories than you take in. Kicking it old school.

What happens after week 12?
You go onto week 13 and so on and so fourth until you lose all the weight you want and then you find a proper balance of calories and exercise to maintain the new and healthy weight. It might be a 2000 cal a day plan with 2 workouts a week or it might be something else. I will let you know when I get there. I am excited to find out.0 -

I am so proud of you...cheering you on big time:drinker: --WOOT!!!!!! You WILL make you goal and maintain it too--NEVER let the naysayers distract nor dissuade you, EVER!
Also...here's a calculator that can help with reduced cals over time to help reach goals too:
http://www.healthyweightforum.org/eng/calculators/calories-required/
The calorie calculator is very useful for weight management as it displays how many calories are needed over the specified period of time. It keeps track of your weight loss and calories required. The less you weigh, the fewer calories you will need to take in for weight loss to continue.0 -
Wow, how much are you consuming and how long and vigorous are your workouts? I've been at 221 for over a month. I usually eat the same thing daily to stay under my basal metabolic rate of 1800. I feel like giving up. It's very frustrating to own a scale where the number will not change.0

I love you comment "kicking it old school". Portion control and exercise... and everybody thinks this is some hidden secret. You're proof of what common sense and commitment can accomplish. Congrats and good luck to you and your health!0 -
Congratulations!
Yes when you weight more you lose faster, apparently no one has heard of this before. When I started I was loosing 5-10 pounds a week. What's more is you're working with your doctor...but I guess message boards know better
