Joe, are you eating enough? On a 'normal' LC day, you should be eating 10-12x body weight, and 1300 calories is way too low for you. If you don't eat enough, your body will go into 'slowdown' mode to conserve energy, and that'll sabotage your weightloss efforts in the long run. Maybe you should consider adding a few more snacks - nuts, pork rinds, whatever - into your 'regular' days. Just an idea.
