Hi All,

I started zig-zagging calories today in hopes of breaking my plateau. I am going to start a new exercise regime next week too.

Do you know how long it is recommended to zig-zag the calories?

Thanks!

    I'd give it a couple of weeks at least.

    I wish MFP had more flexibility around this. Would be handy for it to allow easier calorie cycling.

    What you mean on purpose? I just do this naturally. Its the weekly calorie goal that matters. I lose on average 2lbs every week. I dont think I have ever had a week where I didnt lose at least a pound.
