Good morning everyone. I have been really busy with work and have just been managing to record my weight and track but haven't really engaged on FS for the last 10 days. Things have now calmed down and I have breathing room. During this time I have now been at 146 for a couple of days. I find that like everyone else I fluctuate daily, and have been at 146 a couple of times last week but didn't record it. My goal was/is 145. But it is such an arbitrary number, that I think I have achieved my goal now. I know that looking at myself I don't want to lose really any more weight as now I would start to look on the too thin/unhealthy side. This seems sort of funny to think that way, when you are so used to looking, quite frankly, obese.
I still have fat around my belly and I have been looking at perhaps changing my diet. Online, I have read articles that a lower carb diet, is best for losing belly fat. But I do not want to cut carbs out of my diet. I am wondering if I lower the percentage of carbs I eat in a day, how much should I lower it by? Obviously I would have to increase protein and fat. Does anyone have any advice/opinions on this? I currently eat about 50% carbs, and roughly 20-30% each of protein and fat daily.
I also have to figure out maintenance and how many calories (roughly) I should consume in a day. I average about 1700ish right now and probably need to work up to 1800-1900 to maintain. This will be trial and error on my part. How do I up my calories to get the extra 100-200 per day? I am not sure. I am so used to cutting calories that now I am not sure how to add them back in. Any thoughts?
I work out with free weights at home 3x/week and get 30-45 minutes of brisk walking in daily. Is there something else I should be doing? Any thoughts?
I think FS is even more important right now to maintain as I have never been in this position before - sort of scary because I don't want to gain and throw away all I have achieved. Thank you for all the support you give to me and we give to each other.
