I didn't make a new years resolution. Missus made it for me. 🙁
Got on the scales at a friends house New years eve. 17s'8. She wants me to get down to 16 by next year.
Gotta strengthen my back up after suffering a setback this year.... MRI on friday to find out whats up. So her aim is for me to fix my back, get to the gym, and lose 1 n'alf stone in a year. Don't think she'll manage it to be honest, but will give it a good go.
Should be fun 🙂 (will it heck! 🙁 )
That's not even half a pound a week, u can do that easily by reducing ur current daily intake by 200 calories a day!
3000 calories reduction equates to a pound in weight,
Therefore 1500 calories is half a pound
However, 2000 calories burnt thro exercise also equals a pound lost, it's far more efficient than reducing calories.
Obviously those figures are very general and not specific in any way, but on average that's what it equates to.
That's based on ur current daily intake if u are maintaining a steady weight without actually gaining.
If ur actually gaining steadily then 200 calorie reduction isn't enough, it would have to be more!
Someone in ur kind of work would normally expect around 2200-2300 calories a day to maitain a steady weight!
But again that's average. Government recommended figures are too high imo, u've only got to look down the street to see that in the main the average person today is overweight or close to it!
But that's just my opinion
🙄
Ahhhhh that's better!
