JockoT's Journal, 18 Dec 15

Such a disappointment not to lose at least one pound this week. I have stuck to my 1700 cal limit all week (with the exception of last night when I went over to the tune of a bag of crisps), well within my 2100 RDI. Well one more week before the Christmas blow out so let's see what happens between now and Christmas morning.
I am blaming this warm weather as I am not burning as much energy trying to keep my body warm!
103.4 kg Lost so far: 24.9 kg.    Still to go: 8.2 kg.    Diet followed: 100%.

Have you recalculated your RDI recently? I had a look back at your diet calendar a few months ago, and it's clear that because you were heavier, you were expending a lot more energy then just sleeping and resting.

My current calculated RDI is 2100 but I have adjusted it down to 1700. Even on a rubbish day I always meet the 2100 calorie limit. The NHS site states 1874 to 2410 (hence my choice of 1700), and My Fitness Pal 1810.

That's good then, just wondered!

You have probably done less exercise, but weight changes don't follow on immediately on a change in food intake, other than by relatively small amounts and that even depends on what you have eaten. It takes time for your body to process foods and convert to fat or not. RDI is a pretty rough guide, because it can vary. depending on so many different parameters Exercise less then RDI will get lower, move around more and the RDI can increase.

My problem is I don't exercise at all. Only exercise I get is if I cannot get the car parked at the door!

You really should try to get a bit of exercise even if it's walking for 30-60 minutes a day. If you out do little things such as take the stairs not the lift or escalator.

When I started exercising, I just did a 15 minute walk each day, but I made myself do it EVERY day. It's hard to find excuses not to do 15 minutes! Even if the weather is bad, just dress up and go. Then build it up gradually. I actually found it quite interesting walking around the streets where I live, but was lucky I could also go into the country and walk. If you have any hills nearby, use them, they are really good exercise, will build up your legs and cardio. But start slowly, no heart attacks!
