kaz_12's Journal, 28 Jul 10

I notice that I've been stack at the same weight level since late June: highest is 120 and lowest is 118. It looks like I hit plateau. The last time I felt I hit plateau, it was around May. It was also the time we had relocation, so I am not sure if it was really plateau or not. I added another cardio workout, and it worked, until now.

The good side is that my weight doesn't keep increasing; it just moves around the same number. So, what I am doing with my diet and workout is okay for maintenance. In order to move my weight down, I have to make some changes...

I ordered another The FIRM system, TransFIRMer, some days ago, and it should be arrive to me early in August. I hope changing my workout routine would move my weight.

Another thing I am thinking of is increasing protein intake. I know I haven't paid good attention to proportion of nutrition in total calories. I am usually careful of fat I am consuming but not protein. For the next a couple of months, I am going to keep my close eyes on my protein consumption. My aim is 1/4 to 1/3 portion of my calorie intake to be from protein.

Today's calorie breakdown>>>
Carb:Fat:Protein
54: 24 : 22
Today's protein was close to 1/4. It is not bad comparing my usual proportion.


ETA...
I just checked my past diet calendar. I lost weight well in March and April, and I also had relatively higher protein intake in those months: 19% in March and 21% in April. It is still less than 1/4, but it could be a good contribution of my weight loss in those months. I adjust my goal protein intake to 20%, and 25% as an ultimate goal.
