Having Trouble with definition.

Post by BucsFan53 »

Im around 5'9 and 160 pounds, so by the BMI calcuter im just under or right at "Over Weight". but i have a very flabby stomach that i would like to get rid of. i was 260 pounds and i lost it over the past couple years the completely wrong way by not eating. and body has payed for it. im currently trying Beach Body T25, im on Day 3, but im having trouble keeping up. And i have to take stops in the workout. Right now i could care less about what i weigh, i just want to look good. Im not eating alot because i really dont have the appetite, but i do eat. ussually 1 meal a day, and on some days 2. Just looking for any Advice or Tips to get to where i want to be.

Hi John, good to speak with you.

You definitely need to eat more, because you could be wrecking your metabolism with 1-2 meals a day and as 1lb of muscle burns an extra 45-50 calories a day, so the reverse could happen if you lose muscle; you could actually gain fat.

Before we begin I'd like to know how long this minimal eating habit has been happening, because if it's a few days we can proceed with a decent eating plan, but if it's a few weeks, your metabolism could be affected and you may find a normal eating schedule could be too much for your body to cope with and then you'd be better with a regulated consistent low calorie approach, where the calories could be increased week by week, to allow your metabolism and body to adjust to having more calories, but not a whole load more all at once, so effectively you'd work up to that week by week.
