Taking a diet break until 10/21 to see if I can get a reset. The goal is to stop counting calories and relax but not to eat everything I possibly can. I'm still going to lift every day- because that's what I do and I am still going to weigh in every day so you can all see what happens. I am mentally prepared to see the numbers climb. I don't know how high the scale will get in just 4 days but I know it won't be fat. I think I mentally and physically need a break- from the diet part- not the lifting part. I'll never stop lifting and it'll probably be easier and more fun with 2000-2300 cal a day as opposed to 1600-1700. Wish me luck. Later, friends! P.s. Anybody else done this recently and gotten good results? I fear that 4 days isn't going to reset anything but I am afraid to do a week or 2 so I pray this works. Here goes nothin'!

Thanks for posting that article link. Good luck with taking the break, I hope it does what you're wanting it to do. I haven't been back at this long enough to take a break but have saved the article and will re-visit it when appropriate. :)

Thanks jmb! I fully intend to exceed all expectations! 😂 that's just my personality though. I refuse to give up this fight. ❤️💪🏼

I wish you luck. I've been exceeding my RDI by 400-600 daily but staying the same weight. Is that a good result or bad? Depends on how one looks at it. My goal is to NOT have to live on only 1000 calories or less, you know? So I'm still weighing daily and recording. At some point I want the weight loss to resume but for now, I'm more interested in the process, if that makes sense. Which is a long way of saying "I understand and support you completely". I'm not deleting this. Not sorry. Hahaha

Yes Bella! I understand completely what you are saying! I think it's awesome that you aren't gaining. Maybe you're more active than you realize! My goal is too eat more, too, not less. I swear I hear my body thanking me already...or I'm crazy. Lol. 😊👍🏼 TGIF

I did a reset probably a year ago and it worked for me. I went from 1200-1400 up to 1400-1600. My RDI is about 1600. If I remember correctly, I did it for 2-4 weeks.

Not going to do 2-4 weeks. So far I am enjoying 2300 calories. Very minimal gain. When I get back to it on Monday, I'll see what the weight does by end of next week. Even if it doesn't kick it into gear- I'm still losing inches and seeing my body from lifting is really making it look pretty damn good- not yet great. Amazing what muscle does- especially when I see the people who post before and afters but only do cardio- still an improvement, but nothing like I look with muscle. Sorry if that's an asshole thing to say- but it's true.

That gain is just the water from the carbs😊 I learned something 🤓🤓😂😂 I was going to ask you what you were going to raise your intake to.
