The Calorie Connection
I need your help, whoever can shed some light on this.
I started my food and workout log today. I’m a clean eater, and it seems my daily calorie intake hovers around 1300-1500 calories per day. Lately, since I started working out again, I’m not really seeing the weight come off like I’d like, though I do see a difference in muscle tone and shape. I know muscle weighs more than fat, but with the rather large calorie deficit I have, shouldn’t I see more weight come off?

Dont pay any attention to the scale, did you take measurements? My first bfl challenge I only lost 6 lbs but went down 2 sizes.

Try some interval training for your cardio is great and burns more fat and avoid you scale for at least 2 weeks at a time..use the mirror and measuring tape…and how you feel..for the real results

I wouldn’t really measure anything yet, give your body 8 to 12 weeks then check and reevaluate

weight loss should be slow and steady…please dont get hung up on the scale, it will drive you crazy
also, be sure not too drop your calories too low…it will do more harm than good!
