[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why are you starving yourself with only 1200 calories? You need to eat.[/quote] Because 1200 calories a day is leading to .5 - 2lbs weight loss per week, which is a reasonable weight loss pace. If it takes me two weeks to lose .5 lbs, I get discouraged and blow it all to hell. I know myself. I need to see progress and movement towards the goal to keep me going.[/quote] How much more do you want to lose? At some point you will have to start eating at maintenance.[/quote] OP here. I'd like to get to 140 and maintain that. At 5'7 I think there's a very healthy weight, not too low at all. So I'm very close to maintenance.[/quote] So, OP, here's the trade-off: you get to lose weight at a rate you prefer and which keeps you motivated, but you are tired in your workouts. OR you can lose weight more slowly and have more energy for them. That's your choice.[/quote]
