Woke at 214.0, down 1.4 from this time yesterday. That’s after eating 2700 calories. Holy cow, is this adding calories thing going to work? Finished a 16:8 fast and ate a huge omelet. Had three cups of coffee and a hot green tea, then went out for a 5-mile HIIT walk. I intended to take it easy after a fast pace yesterday, so I mostly jogged during my HIIT bursts. But I’ll be darned if I didn’t exceed my max heart rate on them! Was it the coffee? A little less sleep last night? Averaged 4.3 mph and an amazing 141 bpm with a max of 177 bpm! I sometimes don’t even hit 141 bpm on my HIIT bursts on the incline treadmill! Came back and weighed 210.0, down 1.6 from post-workout yesterday. Looks like I’ll get at least 2600 calories today. I’m eating 400-800 more calories than I normally do, tailored to a 750 calorie deficit each day based on how much Fitbit says I burn. Attempting to see if I was not losing body fat due to stress-induced cortisol production from extreme calorie deficits (and lack of sleep).
