Day 51 of intermittent fasting.
Lost 16 lbs and weight has remained steady at 274 lbs for the past two weeks. It looks like I have plateaued. Time to switch up my strategy.
Changed my RDI calculated daily calorie intake from 2,600 down to 1,200 calories a day.
Sunday went and did a 12 km walk (feeling soar, but also feel good and glad I did it). Going to make that my weekend activity to look forward to.
Adding two 6 km walks per week to my exercise routine and cleared off the dust on the treadmill, elliptical and rowing machine, and home gym and going to try and get a few hours a week in.
Got to keep focused and committed to my goals.
Putting the weight on was easy. Taking it off is hard work. But the reward is worth it. Better quality of life, being able to do the things I like to do with more ease and less frustration.
Don’t give up, get focused and keep your goals in mind and on how awesome and happy you will feel when you achieve them. Whats a few months of hard work compared to a happier, longer, healthier and better quality of life! 😊

what's your time for fasting, thinking of trying it, any suggestions?

HeyML, I use the 16-8 method.
Fast from 8:30 P.M. until 12:30 P.M.
Eat healthy (or at least as best as possible) but no junk food or fast foods.
I give myself one break day (usually Saturdays) where I will eat a little more that day to build up some calories for energy but I don’t over do it. Maximum 2,600 if no exercises and 2,900 with exercise.
Right now I am trying a revision to my strategy and moved my fasting to 7:00 P.M. until 12:00 P.M. and reduce my calorie intake per day to 1,200, keeping my one day break calorie intake around 1,800.
I guess we’ll see how it works out. 9 lbs to go until I reach my first goal 😊

How do you change the caloric intake on this app I couldn’t figure it out and I see you were able to

To recalculate or set your own RDI target
Go to settings
Near the bottom click on RDI
Click calculate
Then save or enter your own calorie target and hit save
Hope this helps.

1,200 is a big drop! be mindful not to drop weight too quickly. I'm about 210 and targeting 1,500 a day. even for my weight that is considered very aggressive fasting. never the less good luck!

The calcutaor on here is super conservative, so you'll need to go lower than what it says but 1200 is a bit low and it might work against you. Assuming you are doing something physical, 1800 will be enough to see a steady drop. And patience is key, too many people try to drop weight too fast, myself included. Be patient.
