JLente's Journal, 29 Apr 18

A good day all around. I got some salad shrimp and sauteed about 1/3 of a pound up with sliced baby bella 'shrooms, mung bean sprouts and spinach then topped it off with an avocado and mozzarella cheese. It came out pretty good though it didn't have the heat I was shooting for. I should have added additional cayenne pepper or taken the time to mix up my own cajun spice mix. Added a protein drink (I don't mix it thick enough to call it a shake) to balance the macros a closer to targets. Came to a total of 1150-1250 cals of intake

I'm enjoying cooking again on the weekends. I make simple fare and suck at 'presentation' (making things look pretty) but I can hold my own in the flavor department. :P

Gotta take some time to plan out lunches for the week, slowly moving to that daily average of to 1100 cals (macro mix of 60%F/30%P/10%) where I think I need to be. I hope you all have have an equally good day and are enjoying a relaxing evening. Keep your eyes on the prize and do the things, especially the little ones, that move you close to where you want to be.

@curruvers... No real logic behind it. When I started out changing the way I eat, I targeted 1300 cals a day which is an aggressive cals deficit from my basal metabolic rate (BMR). I quickly found that I became satiated quicker during a meal and was not hungry for far longer periods of time. I soon found myself at a 900 and lower cal intake level per day. This I felt lead to a stall in progress so I have been working on bringing that average up by having larger meals on OMAD days (One Meal A Day - a type of intermittent fasting (IF)) as well as having a little more on the 16:8 IF (16 hour fasting:8 hours to consume cals) routine I keep during the work week. So that 11OO cals a day is simply a target I think will fuel the metabolism better and encourage the bod to burn its energy reserves (fat) and not madly hold on to every little bit. :P
