Day Twenty-Five

I've been trying to stay under 1800 cals, which is about 500 less than my BMR. Combined with the workouts I should average well over 2 lbs of weight loss a week. Like the workouts, eating less has gotten easier. Little changes like no cheese, no mayo and no soda are pretty easy to stick to and can easily save 200-400 cals. I'm also eating smaller meals and spreading them out throughout the day. So, i'll eat 5 or six times a day, the meals are just enough to keep me satisfied and going for a few hours until the next meal or snack, then before I know it the day's over and it's time to go to bed. Spreading it out like that seems to also help with energy since I don't go into that 'food coma' after dinner like I did before. And drinking lots and lots of water keeps my stomach full for most of the day.
