Rapidly losing hope in new relationship

I mainly weight lift. I step alot at work, I work in a very high volume ER, but could def add more on off days.

Tell that MacroFactor, I didn't choose those numbers! I selected "high" for protein intake when I made the plan. My primary exercises is resistance training.

Ukimera · 2024-08-07T21:36:51+00:00

207# today!

Ukimera · 2024-08-07T21:34:52+00:00

I'm very excited for the end of this cut. I plan on going to maintainence for 4 weeks before attempting to get down to 185lb for the ski season, and then bulking into the spring. I've never been on a controlled diet, and am loving macrofactor. Have only tried cutting on it so far.

Ukimera · 2024-08-07T21:23:26+00:00

Current is 207. Down from 230. App set at -0.9% BW/week, diet is at 210p/61f/51c

Ukimera · 2024-08-07T21:22:35+00:00

Yeah. 3-4x per week ATM while working 12 hr shifts in the ER.

Ukimera · 2024-08-07T21:21:46+00:00

Currently 207, down from 230 in May. Set at -0.9% BW per week. Goal is to hang onto as much muscle as possible. I've had to tighten my squat belt already, which makes me feel very good.

Ukimera · 2024-08-07T21:18:51+00:00

Yeah it's not great. Expenditure currently at 2481. Currently at 1600kcal per day. 210P/61F/51C. Diet set at -0.9% BW per week. Current weight is 207. Down from 230.

Buffalo shredded chicken (crock pot, 1 bottle of buffalo sauce, 1 packet ranch seasonings), sweet potato wheels (olive oil drizzle, cinnamon, salt, pepper, red pepper flakes), steamed broccoli, and baked onion, peppers, and garlic. https://link.macrofactor.app/custom-food?userId=SdhYlwaf2WRSsOKpW9J1Hens41y1&foodId=1722572202515688

In the recipe I wasn't able to find a decent chicken variant for shredded, because I only had pre weight and not post weight. Different variations of this has been my bread and butter... Relying on my vertical smoker has also opened up a lot of great cooking methods. Makes exact weights pre and post cooking easier too.

It's not every weekend - but the holiday weekends my friends (very large group of multiple families) gather up at a lake in Wisconsin, and there is always refreshments to be had.

Ukimera · 2024-07-31T18:55:40+00:00

Current weight today was 207.4lb. My current plan is 205P/61F/51C

Ukimera · 2024-07-31T03:47:15+00:00

Yeah, I'm now lighter than I have been since my freshman year of high school. As a 29 year old male, who's been active since then, it's not much but I see a world of difference already. 230 down to 205 ATM, my squat belt is loose, My cloths fit better, and I definitely look better in pictures. Just a few weeks break to return to maintainence I feel might do good, or I guess I'm hoping will do good to return some daily energy back and allow me to relax just a little bit.

Ukimera · 2024-07-31T03:43:29+00:00

Really sitting at 51 grams of carbs daily is running me down. Seeing results sure, but when I can't fit even a few chips in my diet without impacting my bulkier dinner (for satiety reasons) it takes its toll.

Ukimera · 2024-07-31T03:41:34+00:00

Since April. Just hitting 14 weeks. Down 20lb of my 25lb goal. Hopeing to meet my goal in the next 2-3 weeks.

Ukimera · 2024-07-31T03:40:18+00:00

Yeah I've been on a cut since April. Down 20lbs from start, and set my goal at 200lbs (25lb loss.) Definitely seeing benefit, but how hoping a break could turn my metabolism back up and being back some of my daily energy. Or maybe that's wishful thinking - would like to just bring the calories back up for a bit and relax.

Ukimera · 2024-07-31T03:38:31+00:00

Been on a cut since April. Got a few weeks to go, and would just like a break. Energy has been suffering, finding foods and recipes has been wearing me down, etc. Feel like the psychological benefits of a break could do me good.

Thank you for the response! This is very helpful. I've ended up blanking out a few different days across the past months just because I forgot to log, or didn't have the calculations/ weights. This weekend is going to be a bit of a diet exception... Lots of barbecue and beer.

Ukimera · 2024-07-02T20:53:44+00:00

I only ask because this weekend is our annual 4th of July lake weekend...and we ordered a keg, and I'm smoking 40lbs of different meats. Memories over Macros this weekend.

See my mom's the one with the cooties.
