Play it again, Crook…

Awesome!  Down 4.5lbs this week, so a total weight of 9.5lbs lost so far.  I have 45.5 lbs to go to meet my goal weight.  Today is my last day of smoking!

I’m heading to the gym this weekend to begin my workout program.  This is where things get tricky because I’ll need to increase my caloric intake enough to balance off the extra calories burned while working out so my body doesn’t go into “starvation mode”.  If that happens, it will slow down my metabolism to conserve energy so it can keep vital organs such as the brain and the heart going for as long as possible in the face of a perceived threat…..which would be me starving myself accidentally, but my body doesn’t know that….lol While it will burn fat for fuel, it will also start burning lean muscle mass for fuel, which will slow down my metabolism even further and I do NOT want that to happen.

I’ll base my caloric intake on a workout that burns ~700 calories and start there.  More to come…..!
