Lately, I've been indulging in more sweets and allowing myself an extra slice of toasted Dave's Killer Good Seed Bread with butter in the mornings. Calories have been in the 1,900's all this week. BUT, somehow, I've been "maintaining!" Maybe the almost 400 calories burned each day with my 3 miles of walking is making a difference! Even though I am indulging, I have still been faithful to recording everything I eat, I have been getting in at least 20g Fiber a day, and I've been doing my walking. I'm kinda just hovering here right above 200 pounds. When I'm ready to take the leap into ONEderland, I will limit my calories significantly until I can get to 199.8 or lower and then try to maintain that new weight for awhile. Going to be keeping my grandson from about noon tomorrow (Friday) until after church and lunch on Sunday. It took me almost three days to recover from the 65 hours in a row I kept him recently. I'll probably keep him a day or two next week also, since it is Spring break. Every little bit of consistency he gets with his new lifestyle of "more water, more fiber and more exercise" will help! My daughter is doing a LITTLE better on keeping up with those things since she has had him for the past couple of days.

To any who have not tried Dave's Killer Bread, do NOT try it! That stuff is more addicting than soda! For months, I have been managing to "only" have one slice a day for breakfast, toasted with butter. But, lately, I have gone back to my old way of waking up in the middle of the night and having a slice! Today, I would have been under 2,000 calories (even with having TWO blueberry muffins), if it had not been for the fact that I had a slice of toast at 12:30am then another slice when I woke back up at 5am. I can't do both and maintain - eating two breakfasts and indulging in desserts. Gotta decide which is more important to me. I made a batch of 12 blueberry muffins this morning. I gave one to my daughter, one to my grand daughter, and four to my twin friends. I had two myself, with butter - a total of 760 calories. There are still four muffins remaining, and it is very hard for me to not eat a third one today! But, I think I will be able to resist, knowing that I can have more tomorrow.

I don't recommend dropping your calories significantly to maintain your weight for a bit before deciding to continue on because when you limit your calories like that it's going to slow your metabolism way down and make it harder to lose weight if you decide you want to lose more. It will be much harder to do and you'll have to put a lot of work into resetting your metabolism before you even think about losing any weight. It also puts your body into starvation mode and makes your body hold onto every calorie it can. It's not healthy. Look at your TDEE (total daily energy expenditure) and eat your maintenance calories (the amount of calories your body needs to maintain its current weight) that way you don't stall your metabolism and hinder any further progress in the future.

Starvation mode is only a thing if you're actually starving, like a 90 lb. anorexic surviving on 300 kcal/day. For the rest of us, our bodies use the fat we have stored all over our bodies for energy when the calories are low. Take it from someone who's at 21% BMI.

Metabolisms are slowed by loss of muscle, loss of fat, loss of neat. Neat especially is tricky cuz you could drop calories but if it makes you too tired to do anything then you pretty offset the drop in calories with the drop in activity

It also works vice versa, sometimes adding calories gives you more energy and you tend to be more active there you offset the added calories with the added activities

@Super, I've never met an energetic obese person. Most of them will tell you that losing weight has given them more energy and they sleep better at night, too. Besides, no one is starving by eating 1200-1500 kcal. People should just move more. Spend energy to get energy.

I beg to differe. Hi, I’m obese 😏. Same energy lvl, feel just as healthy but with much more strength. I’m not disagreeing I’m just posting information. Sometimes when you drop cals too low and is unaware of your neat dropping, boom you just torture yourself for nothing cuz your body offset that drop in calories by sitting you on the couch all day. Now if you are aware and determined then it can work

This is Debbie Cousin's journal, though. She is 200+ and her only exercise is slowly walking through the house (what you and I would just consider part of our NEAT). She sleeps 12 hours a day, is on a lot of meds, issues with her knees and arthritis, and has had bariatric surgery -- which didn't stop her sugar addiction or prevent her from regaining. She is not in danger of starving, and is likely still eating too much for her sedentary lifestyle at 1900 kcal/day.

Yup Debbie. I had to stop buying the Dave's Killer. I wasn't even toasting it, which makes it even more delicious.

You're right Debbie, sweets and bread are downfalls for many of us. I'm on day 12 of no sweets but will have to cut bread to lose. It feels like leaving an old friend. Maybe my best friend.
