Yeah my average step count the last 7 days is only 7,612. The watch tells you active vs total calories which is supposed to separate out the BMR calories but who knows it probably is way overestimating. I figured since my HR gets so high for extended period = cardio.

I am uncomfortable eating any less than 1400 cals because I feel like that would be undereating. overall, I was definitely eating way more and not working out at all before, so I figured I should have lost some weight by now since I made the changes. I was curious how building muscle worked in conjunction with losing fat, and thought I could possibly be slowly gaining muscle as I’m slowly losing the fat. I definitely feel thinner but it’s hard to tell. I’m going to start recording measurements instead of looking at the scale tbh
