re: Weight loss 50 pounds: UPDATE: Consuming 3000-3200 calories/day the last 10 weeks Page 6

Here's an update. I'm now at 191 pounds. I started January 21st at 229. So in 13 weeks I lost 38 pounds

Awesome job baw! I'm surviving Festival International this week and Ill be back on the wagon. I'm ready to get to 210

That’s not too hard of a task. Just eat crawfish boats and fried catfish and drink beer until you explode. It’s what I do.

Hit 40 pounds lost in 14 weeks!!!! I'm at a weight where I'm gonna increase my protein and lean the hell up now

lost 8 pounds practically overnight

naw

figure of speech. It was about 5 or 6 days.

UPDATE. I'm now down 42 pounds. Two weeks ago I added about 400-500 calories/day to my eating. I added 2 chicken breasts and another protein shake. My protein shake I drink has 120 calories and 20g of protein per serving. Since adding the 400-500 calories/day I've slowly lost about 1.5 pounds/week the last two weeks. This lets me know I could probably add another 400-500 calories/day and break about even for the week.

During these last 2 weeks I can see more muscle definition than I could before which is exciting

My eating now looks like this:
After workout 9:30am protein shake (120 calories 20g protein)
linch 11:30am salad with spinach, tomatoes, cucumbers, egg, balsamic dressing, one avocado, 2 chicken breasts
snack 2:30pm protein shake (120 calories 20g protein) and a fruit cup
dinner 6:00ish usually something with about 800-1000 calories

all this is roughly 2100-2300 calories/day

My wife and friends say I should start a blog because what I have done makes people literally wanna ask me about EVERYTHING I've been doing to drop this weight

Down to 184!!! 45 pounds since middle of January. I’ve lost 3 pounds since my last update a month ago.
