Weight loss a feature
So, lost 7lbs in the last 3 weeks. Not an alarming amount, really but noticible in the mirror and the waistband. That is surprisingly motivational though I don't recommend the technique. I have ranted elsewhere that reducing intake moderately with increased activity is a more balanced technique. Subsequently through conversation and experience I've seen that to be nearly impossible with intensive training. A conversation with one athlete I respect: she has lost more than a hundred pounds and competes in both strong women and the Crash-B rowing erg event says that she has to drop intensity while she diets. The reduced calories simply prohibit intensive training. I'm wondering if I can keep this weight loss going through my recovery period and then as I resume exercise balance calories more closely to increased activity. Last time I ate the Zone I was able to get down to 195. Loss beyond that was too difficult given my intensity at the time. I don't have the intensity excuse right now.
