    It doesn't seem to make sense, but it does, sometimes, for some people. If my wife eats too little her bod goes straight to famine mode and she gains 3 pounds of water the next day.

    Good for you, nice job finding what works for you. :happy:

    I usually do 6 days a week of cardio/strenght training (switching). Depending on how much I burn I can get any where from 300 to 500 more calories a day (except my day off) other wise I eat around 1300 calories a day (per my BMR which I had tested at my doctors office prior to starting). I was hesitant to eat the extra calories... but I just was NOT budging... so I figured I would give it a try. What a treat lol! I can eat haha! And trust me if I dont... I become a time bomb! :explode: Low blood sugar!

    Just thought I would share... everyone finds there own balance!
