First week at maintenance
Sunday, October 5th, 2008After a week of eating at maintenance, I’m maintaining at 123 pounds in the 1800 calorie range. On lifting days, I up it to 1900. I’m going to raise my calories a little at a time as I don’t want to pack on a lot of excess fat. If I see I don’t gain any mass by next week, I’m going to move up to 2000 calories on my lifting days. My arms are looking solid again, so I know increasing my caloric intake and cutting back on cardio was the right solution for me at this time.
My measurements are the same except for my abdomen. I dropped another inch. I used to think I was stuck with a pot belly, but I’m seeing that hard work and persistence can make even the most stubborn fat melt away.
