I’m doing what is called the 15 Day Shred, work a little harder (diet and exercise) to shed a few more pounds than I normally would to start 2020 off with a bang.

Well at Day 69 in my journey I have lost 45 pounds, 6 inches in my waist and gone down 4 sizes in my pants and from and tight XL to a comfortable Large in my shirts.

The journey toward better health, the best journey of my life!

    Wondering, how many calories are you consuming per day?

    Between 800 and 1000

    Let me give a clearer picture. It’s more about what I eat and how often than how much.

    And do you think you can maintain a 1200 calorie diet for the rest of your life? Asking because that low an intake, coupled with a lot of exercise could lead you into a tremendous rebound, when you reach your goal.

    No after I get to my goal I will work it to between 2500 and 2800. Weight x 11 x 1.5 = appropriately where I need to be to maintain.
