That's really interesting----I wonder if there's any others who've experienced this?? I've not done any more of cardio than 20min because I think the BFL stance on that one is right on the ball---IMHO.
I've not lost ANY weight to the degree you guys have, but I've got a flipped out metabolism that doesn't like to let go of ANYTHING. My first loss in a couple of months was after I began CKD, and it was last week (2lbs), which is about 200% more than I was losing before!
Right now I'm doing weight training 3 days, and cardio 3 days. Is that enough----too much---just right??
I've not finished Lyle's book yet, but I'm in the CKD section anyway. WOW---what a lot of GREAT information that is!
Anyway, will you guys please keep posting about this as you experience/learn more? I'm all for hearing what helps the ole bod give up the fat!
And Misty, I think you may be onto something! For instance, overtraining (different scenario, though) will usually result in a major increase in appetite, probably because the body thinks it's starving to death or something. Could very well be that too much cardio combined with weight training and dieting will send the body into starvation mode.
Interesting.
Thanks for sharing, guys! (use the term "guys" loosely! LOL)
