Ok...I've up'd my calories! Everyone at work is on this 1000 calorie diet. I know better than this! I have been doing it for 4 weeks ( besides my vacation, of course ) I am working out like crazy, I am tired, not sleeping well and....NOT LOSING WEIGHT! I need FOOD! Feed Me! hahahahaha!
So, I am 5'2...127lbs. I did have my goal @ 118....but really, I haven't weighed this since freshman year of high school (27 years ago) . I changed my goal weight to 122. I love strength training. My number on the scale is higher when I lift weights, but I love the way my body looks and how strong I feel! I had surgery 8 weeks ago (BA) and I have been back, hittin it at the gym for the last 3 weeks. I keep seeing Jillian Michaels who is my height and way more muscular and weighs like 115...or Kim Kardashian, who is my height and much more voluptuous then me and she "supposedly" weighs 110. So I was hooked on being muscular and weighing a chunk less than I can ever seem to get. I am (tryng) not to worry about the scale and just looking at my BF percentage. Just trying to get to the best ME.
I am uping to 2000 calories on my workout days ( i burn about 500-600 calories a wo). I am not sure with my size how 2000 calories will work on my off days....so I will stick to 1500 on those days.
I just wanted to type this out to make it more "real"
Thanks! Woohoo!
