no exercise tonight
yes its true–I am not going to exercise tonight for the first time in about 4 weeks. It feels weird. I need a rest. I also increased my calories to 1300 today. May be a recipe for disaster. I dont know what else to do–trying to mix it up. I have little hope at this point that anything will work. Maybe I should get my thyroid checked.

Didn’t work out today either. The rain had me feeling a little lazy. You did the right thing, you just may be giving your metabolism a needed jumpstart. Have a great weekend.
I think this is the perfect decision for you. A days rest, and some nutrition, a great comination. Don’t lose it just yet…the extra calories are not going to kill you, if you eat the right foods. You know where I stand on this…I really don’t think you were eating enough to lose the weight you wanted to.
Low calorie diets
It is harmful to reduce your daily calorie intake lower than 1400 calories per day. If you reduce your calorie intake too much, your body adjusts to a semi-starvation state and looks for alternative sources of energy. In this case, in addition to burning fat, your body will eventually burn muscle tissue. Since your heart is a muscle, prolonged starvation will weaken it and interfere with its normal rhythms. Extreme low-calorie diets lack protein, carbohydrates, fat, vitamins and minerals. Without these nutrients your body cannot function normally. Extreme low-calorie diets are not recommended.
Just some info for ya…hope it helps…:)
